Gunmen Kill 15 In Rivers State by Anasko(m): 6:29am On Aug 01, 2014
AT least, 15 persons were feared killed in Ogba/
Egbema/Ndoni Local Government Area of Rivers
State by unknown gunmen.
The gunmen numbering about 12 stormed seven
communities in the local government area and
opened fire on unsuspecting persons.
It was gathered that the assailants, who were all
armed with AK-47 rifles, rode into the area with
six motorcycles and operated from 9pm on
Wednesday till the wee hours of Thursday.
A source in the area told our correspondent that
while three persons were shot dead in Ede, one of
the communities in the area, one person lost his
life in Obite.
In Egite community, two persons were killed by
the gunmen while two others were injured.
The source told our correspondent that four
persons were shot at close range in Egita
community while one also died in Obiosimiri
community during the raid.
“In Akabta community, the gunmen killed one
person and an undisclosed number of people were
injured. So far, 15 persons were killed during the
night raid by the unknown gunmen.
“They (gunmen) began their operation at about
9pm on Wednesday night till early this (Thursday)
morning. As I speak with you, some of our people,
who were injured, are in the hospital,” the source
from Egi clan in Ogba/Egbema/Ndoni added.
However, efforts made to reach the State Police
Public Relations Officer, Mr. Ahmad Mohammad,
proved futile as his mobile phone was switched
off.

Regionalism + Regional and State Police? Most Nigerians and their leaders are dum.b. Rather than a solution, they will come here and talk about praying and RIP, as though God will come down to institute a more effective security and policing arrangement. NPF that is collecting N20 Roja is the one you are waiting for? Or retardeenics Army? You go wait until you are 6 feet down in the out! Stupid people!
