Awka stood still in grief as hundreds of youths converged at Aroma Junction today for a candlelight procession in honour of Martins Ifesinachi Onyekere, the young agropreneur fondly called Fish Magnet, who was brutally murdered by yet-to-be-identified gunmen last Sunday night.
The solemn gathering drew tears, chants, and clenched fists, with human rights activist and social media influencer Martins Otse, popularly known as VeryDarkMan (VDM), lead the crowd.
VDM did not hold back in his remarks. He accused the Anambra State Government and political leaders of failing to protect the lives of ordinary citizens.
His words : “They walk in bulletproof cars, surrounded by armed escorts, while ordinary youths like Ifesinachi are left vulnerable.”
“Mr. Gov. provide your people with maximum security. This is one objective of government .”
He called on the State Commissioner of Police, CP Orutugu, to launch a full-scale investigation and ensure the killers are brought to book.
” This is Anambra, a vast state that has many business class. Its very needful for the government to provide advance security for everyone citizen.”
Speaking on the sidelines, Chunky Ezenwa, CEO of Graylings Security Services (GSS) lamented the growing sense of insecurity.
His words: “It is painful when people become victims in their own land.’
“We must demand justice and rebuild public confidence.”
The Police Public Relations Officer(PPRO), SP Tochukwu Ikenga, commended the peaceful nature of the rally, noting that all participants complied with law and order.
Born the only son in a family of female siblings, Martins Ifesinachi began his fish farming journey in 2015. His big break came during the COVID-19 pandemic when his innovative farming techniques and business drive earned him the nickname Fish Magnet.
Friends and business associates described him as disciplined, humble, and deeply committed to his craft.
