Bride, Groom Shot Dead On Wedding Eve In Enugu by etenyong(m): 5:55am On Sep 07, 2014
A man and woman set to be joined in holy
matrimony in Enugu were, yesterday, shot dead by
gunmen suspected to be cult members.
Three other persons including the manager of a
filling station were shot dead during the sporadic
shooting by the unknown assailants who had laid
siege on Abakpa and Trans-Ekulu area of Enugu.
The incident occurred Friday night at a filling
station close to Dhamija Bridge opposite Our Lord’s
Chosen Church, Trans-Ekulu on the Enugu – Onitsha
Expressway.
Sources said the gunmen trailed the couple, who
were finalizing arrangements for their wedding
yesterday, to the filling station where they were
said to be buying fuel.
The gunmen were said to have, on arrival at the
station, shot sporadically at the bride and groom
who were in their car buying fuel and they
reportedly died on the spot.
The manager of the filling station, a pump
attendant and another person buying fuel at the
time were also shot dead by the gunmen who
immediately thereafter fled in their waiting vehicle.
Enugu State Police Public Relations Officer, Mr.
Ebere Amaraizu, confirmed the incident when
contacted yesterday.
“There was an incident that led to the death of
some people following sporadic shooting by
suspected hoodlums before the arrival of security
operatives and we have put measures on ground to
unmask them,” he said.

Guys are not smiling in Enugu now a days. This is what you get in a state where a sick man who is under the spell of a female chief of staff is the governor.#SayNoToIfeomaNwobodo#

May the day of our joy not turned to sadness.

But I don't see anything sporadic about the shooting. It was most probably premeditated.

There's something definitely fishy.

The hoodlums will soon be brought to book. I pray so.

When things like this happen you can't stop but wonder on the value some people place on life.

May their souls rest in peace.
