This is Kingsley Ekeoma aka Escobar, a native of Okpuala Umukaba Ohuhu, in Abia State, whose video went viral after 13 parishioners were shot dead and 22 others seriously injured at St Phillips Catholic Church in Ozubulu by assassins looking for an alleged 36-year-old drug baron – Aloysius Ikegwuonu, aka Bishop, who built the church in Ozubulu, Anambra State.
Ekeoma is nicknamed after Pablo Emilio Escobar Gaviria, who was a Colombian drug lord and narco-terrorist. His cartel supplied an estimated 80% of the cocaine smuggled into the United States at the height of his career, turning over US $21.9 billion a year in personal income.
Ekeoma, who is based in Turkey, is seen here celebrating at the dedication of his cousin’s child.He has since denied any connection with drugs or those involved in the incident at Ozubulu.
