Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC)
have been killed by gunmen at a facility
operated by the Nigerian subsidary of Italian
group Eni.

Reuters quotes local sources and security officials as
saying on Wednesday, November 23 that the attack
occurred late on Monday, November 21 at an installation
at Omoku, near Port Harcourt in River state.
The gunmen were said to have stormed the facility
dressed in military camouflages but when the NSCDC
officials discovered that they were not soldiers, they
engaged them in a gunfight.
River state NSCDC spokesperson Michael Oguntuase
confirmed this much.
“The (security) operatives had engaged the
gunmen in a fierce gun battle on realising
that the intruders were not military men,” he
said.
A local source also confirmed the nature of the strike
by the gunmen.
“Dressed in camouflage, they came in a speed
boat at about 6:40 pm on Monday,
exchanged gunfire with the operatives,
leading to the death of four,” the source said,
claiming also that some other NSCDC officials were
wounded in the attack. 1 Like |
