Cornell Israel, a distraught Nigerian man, has cursed those responsible for the k!lling of his only brother, Obinna, and sister-in-law, Ifenyinwa.
The couple, both aged 34, and five other persons were k!lled by unknown gunmen in Arondizuogu, Ideato Local Government Area of Imo State on July 24, 2025.
The victims included shop owners, their customers and passersby.
The couple will be laid to rest on Friday, August 8, in Abia State.
In a Facebook post on Thursday, August 7, 2025, Cornell revealed that his brother’s wife was pregnant with their fifth child.
Placing a curse on the k!llers, he said nobody in their families will live up to 34 years of age.
“Obinna, my only brother from the same womb and your wife, you were my second in command in our lovely family, u and I do put heads together to tackle family responsibilities, we planned how to carry out our new project this August before bandits shot you to d3ath with your wife alongside with others right in your shop at Arondizuogu in Imo state on Thursday July 24th at 8:34 pm, according to eye witness,” he wrote.
“The news came to me that same night at 2am. I couldn’t believe it till I came next morning and saw you lying lifeless with your pregnant wife. It wasn’t your fault, had it been u were sick, money would bring u back to life, had it been they shot you on the leg I know where I would take u to and treat you so that you will be alive to take care of your 4 children and be alive for me and our parents too, but they turn me an only son overnight, with tears in my eyes.
“It will never be well with them even to their 6th generation no soul in their family will cross 34 yrs of age, may your blood, your wife and that of her unborn child cry against them Rest in peace bro, rest in peace, rest in peace bro till we meet to part no more I will try to bear this fuckup with Christian fortitude.”
