The insecurity in Imo State is fast moving to a frightening dimension as the safety of residents is in jeopardy.
In the past few years, the once peaceful Imo has lost its quality content as one of the peaceful states as various types of crimes have enveloped it in recent times.
Apart from the advent of unknown gunmen which has brought fears to residents other forms of kidnapping and killings have become another sordid development in the state.
The recent which has sent shivers down the spines of the people is the missing of three young men and no trace of their whereabouts.
Unlike in the past where those missing are traced to kidnappers who call their family members for ransome no trace of those involved in the recent case.
Trumpeta learnt that three young men who attended a social function on Sunday are yet to return and their whereabouts unknown.
This unfortunate incident has also been circulating in the social media as one popular on air personality, Chinonso Uba otherwise called Nonso Nkwa wrote on his timeline.
In the post gaining attention with wide comments, it reads
