Meanwhile, the Police in Bayelsa State said they have recovered the bodies of five policemen killed by unknown gunmen on the Nembe Waterway on March 1.

Police Public Relations Officer, Mr. Eguavon Emokpai, said in Yenagoa, yesterday, that the remains of the five cops had been deposited at the Federal Medical Centre Mortuary in Yenagoa.
Emokpai said the policemen were shot at a marine police post along Nembe waterway by unknown gunmen.
MEND in a statement by its spokesperson, Jomo Gbomo, said: “Unfortunately, we are again compelled to respond to the rambling of the spokesperson for the JTF. We urge the public to discountenance the propaganda of JTF, which attributes the attack on its convoy to pirates.
“Since when have pirates in the Niger Delta been known to travel in such large numbers as admitted by the JTF, which for once is forced to concede to the loss of a senior officer? “ source: thejuristlaws..com
