Ikonso was killed around 4am on Saturday by a joint security team.

In a statement signed by the IPOB spokesman, Comrade Emma Powerful, the group strongly condemned what they described as the unprovoked attack on some members of IPOB and ESN operatives at Oguta junction at Mgbidi, along the Owerri-Onitsha Expressway by a joint security force team comprising the  the army, police and DSS operatives, ‘with the support of the Imo State Government’.
The group averred that Uzodinma decided to kill Ikonso because he rebuffed his offer to head the Ebubeagu security outfit formed recently by the South-East governors.
