Inaccurate news. Only one security escorts was killed.

@titiloyeblog.com

- Two oil workers of Shell Nigeria have been kidnapped in Rivers State.

- Two police escorts were also killed during the kidnap.

It was gathered that the incident happened on Thursday evening along the Ahoada-Ndele-Rumuji-Emohua axis of the East-West road, Rivers Staten.

The two kidnapped senior staff members of Shell Petroleum Development Company (SPDC) were said to be returning from an official trip from the neighbouring Bayelsa state when they were attacked by the gunmen, killing their security escorts.

A source in Shell who preferred anonymity confirmed that the senior staff members were returning from Bayelsa State about 4pm, Thursday, with their escorts when they were attacked.

If you've never been to rivers state before and you're planning to visit let me warn you of the areas to avoid. Avoid Emohua, Aluu, Ahoada west, Ahoada east, omoku, Akuku toru, eleme, ogoni, okrika and diobu. Don't say I didn't warn you.
went to omoku this Easter stayed there for 3 days everywhere was calm

Is it not obvious that fighting crime with guns have failed?

Man is worse than the worst animals when survival instinct kicks in.

We have plenty youths with nothing to show for it.

Without a conscious effort by the government to control this YOUTH BULGE, hmmm.. How long till it all implodes.

The neighbourhood safety watch commission was an urgent remedy to to the security crisis in Rivers state...
Too bad that APC, and The Nigerian Army fought against a commission against that was constituted by Rivers House of Assembly!!!

Continue to blame APC. Too bad you can't say the truth of the matter..

Boy, I really need my ACCA to green, cos I really want to take me a holidays and see all of Nigeria. Even Aba, I have never been to, talk less of those SS areas like Warri, Bayelsa, Rivers, Akwa Ibom, Ctoss River and so on. I really want a first hand knowledge of life as it obtains in those areas. I have pretty much seen the rest of Nigeria, except Borno and Yobe which I don't want to see anyways.

Wow. Now that Shell says it is apologizing for all its misdeeds in the Niger delta.

Shell apologies but still sustaining in power the northern Buharis who refuse regional resource control, is like Shell giving two and taking ten.

i live in okrika. Ateke tom resides in okrika and he is the King of Okochiri a town in okrika. Since 2015-till date With Ateke's presence the crime rate dropped drastically. No armed robbery or even phone theft along the street. You can walk freely at night no one will harass you. Most of the youths are rather busy committing crime in a different way which is bunkering and selling Diesels.

From PH airport to Elele all the way to the boundary with Imo state is littered with police and paramilitary checkpoints. I suspect collusion and collaboration.

Rivers is a state reduced to rumbles because of crude oil in its domain.

In other parts of the world, areas that have crude oil are near heaven.

In Nigeria, it's the reverse ...

The Buharis of northern Nigeria use oil money to build modem development infrastructures but exclude the oil producing areas. Because the Buharis believe that one Nigeria is a lie waiting to be exposed.

Besides Okrika your list is pretty much spot on. I would have said you should exclude Akuku Toru, but I just remembered the water ways in the area are rife with pirates.
