Suspected gunmen invade Kogi community, kill several residents
Comment
Many people were allegedly killed when suspected gunmen attacked the town of Ejule in Kogi State’s Ofu Local Government Area.
The wife of a local youth leader and a commercial motorcycle rider, known as an “okada rider,” was apparently slain in the attack, according to a member of the town who left as a result of the event.
“At this time, I am unable to provide you with the death toll. An okada rider and the wife of a well-known teenager in the area have been positively recognized as having died in the early-morning attack.
More dead bodies are being seen on the streets, but the atmosphere is still tight. On the phone, a local told our correspondent that “no one can leave right now.”
SP William Aya, the state’s police public relations officer (PPRO), did not return his calls.
