It's so horrible to see law enforcement agents kill people, especially when other means can be employed in controlling the situation. It's so sad. Having said that, I believe the Ijaws are speaking from both sides of their mouth, why? I'll tell you, it is the same Ijaw who use their "flying boat" to go into arepo and ikorodu and open fire on innocent people minding their daily bread killing hundreds in the process, the same Ijaw who freely kill soldiers at their duty posts in the Niger delta and their people jubilate and chant support for the killers of other tribes, the same Ijaw celebrate the destruction of oil and gas pipelines resulting in power outages and drop in revenue, resulting in huge losses of jobs in the oil and power sectors. It is time the Ijaws look onwards and caution their own before the fire coming from the dragon burns its tamer. The Hausas refused to help destroy Boko Haram thinking it would protect them and make the north more fearful but ended in a rude shock as to the harm the same group they secretly support did to their own.

You lack sense, protest spreading everywhere and you are happy? lf the youths in niger delta rise in unity against military what do you think that would happen? Nigeria will go down!! Protest is legal rights but it does no country good rather it paints that country as red zone rocked with crisis.
my brother if the youth of niger delta rise in unity against the army they will quickly fall in unity because the army represent the larger nigeria and the niger delta is just a fraction. YOU GUYS SHOULD STOP ENCOURAGING EVIL.

Wetin concern cultism and the killing of this young man.

Cultism is very rampant among Bayelsan and Rivers youths. You can never tell but its related to youth death around there. If you think I am lying go to Yenagoa or Nembe

Mr. I'm not encouraging evil rather saying the truth! How many lives have this God forsaken country have taken? From 1914 - 2016 people are being murdered everyday on the alter of one Nigeria. Why so so killing everywhere? Enugu, Kaduna, Kano, Agatu, Bayelsa in short everywhere! If we can't be together why are we still deceiving ourselves?

I encourage you to do research on African history before invasion of Europeans, Africa including Nigeria have been living in peace with just minor tribal clash. If Nigeria disintegrate it will reduce crisis from 100% currently to about 30% which other social enlightenment will take care of. Nigeria is sucking bloods of her citizens. Divide Nigeria and Africa will be liberated. European countries used Nigeria to hold Africa to ransom. According to Garba Shehu where are all Biafran scientist and their inventions? Has it not been killed by Britain through Nigeria?

I am not disputing your statement.Cultism is a bane in the entire Nigerian society cutting across from the tip of the desert to the tip of the ocean.
I am opining that your initial statement doesn't correlate with the issue at ground.

We are talking about unprofessional Police men here.

WHAT THE WITNESSES SAID

NEXTNEWSLIVE.COM after the meeting at the Police Headquarters in Yenagoa, Bayelsa State had and a chat with few eyewitnesses to get more firsthand information.

First was his Aunt, miss Gbasiemokumor Lucky (Innocent Mother’s sister) who reported, her nephew Innocent Kokorifa visited her at the early hours of 11:AM to deliver N2,000 to her on the orders of her sister (Innocent's Mother), the young lad couldn't spend much time with her knowing he was on an errand left back home and all she could hear few minutes later was a gun shot that took Innocent Kokorifa's life with loads of allegations on him.

Mother who corroborated miss Gbasiemokumor's account of her son was however left to rest without too much burden by correspondents.

Also a welder from Kalabari, Rivers States, an eye witness at the crime scene who NEXTNEWSLIVE would not want to declare identity due to the nature of the case right now, painted a clear picture of how Innocent Kokorifa was murdered.

The welder said, Innocent Kokorifa was walking back home when the police van came in their Nigerian usual way to raid people without any offence.

He said, everyone ran except Innocent who was few metres away from them and all they could see and hear from afar was a gun shot with Innocent bowing to his knees and failing down as a prey in the hands of a predator and in a twinkle of an eye, the police van zoomed off with Innocent Kokorifa to an unknown destination and was surprised and shocking to hear they killed him because he resisted arrest by exchanging fire with them.

The eyewitness narrated that Innocent Kokorifa was one teenager he could vouch for at any given time because he was full of respect for elders and constituted authority and short of words on how an harmless boy was murdered in cold blood with so much allegations leveled against him even at death.

The session rounded up once more with the father's account who has never drifted from previous interviews that was painful for killing his son and more painful to label Innocent cooked up lies.

The sorrowful Mr. Daniel Kokorifa with tears said: “on 18/8/2016, I (Daniel Kokorifa) received a call from my wife that Police shot our first son, Innocent Kokorifa.

“Confused, I instructed my wife to go to police station at Ekeki to inquire about the condition and whereabout of Innocent Kokorifa.

“My wife called to inform me that on getting to the station, she said ”Police shot my son”, but the Police retorted “do not say Police shot your son, so that Police will investigate the matter for you.

"However, they admonish and doctored her that she should say “bad boys shot her son.

“When my wife told me this, I left Port Harcourt where I was that moment by night bus and arrived Bayelsa around 23:00 hrs. (10:00 pm) thesame day (18/8/2016).

“I arrived Bayelsa and made efforts to locate the whereabout and condition of my son, but most Police station I reported to, claimed ignorance of the case.

“I went to the scene of the incidence at ‘Airforce Road’with my wife later that night and spotted some puddle of blood on the sand at ‘Airforce Road with the help of my torchlight.

“I retired home because of how late it was to continue searching for him the next day.

“On Friday, 19/8/2016 I returned to the place where Innocent was shot and inquired from a woman about the incident that happened the previous day.

“The woman said it was men of the Anti-Vice squad that came out the said day (18/8/2016) and shot at an unarmed boy.

She told me that “the environment was peaceful and there was no cause for alarm until the Police in Jean and polo shirts came and shot a gun that was aimed at a small boy.

"When the boy fell down, he became lifeless. The Police prevented people from having a close look at the lifeless body.

"They shielded the body of the deceased from onlookers and threw it in their van, then they drove away with it."

Recall, NEXTNEWSLIVE.COM was the prime publishers of this crime against humanity and has however followed the case till this moment. We promised to furnish the public with every details about this case until justice prevails.

Blame it all on the NDA bombing activities in the ND that attracts law enforcement agents into the whole unfolding drama.
This has nothing to do with NDA or bombings in the Niger Delta. it was all about being trigger-happy and brutality. The police should go to the creeks if they want to confront Avengers and not rain bullets on teenagers, that's an act of cowardice and bravery at all. sad

But it is crystal clear that the late Innocent Kokorifa was murdered by the Police guys and his blood will be on them.
