On Tuesday, gunmen at Rumuche community, in the Emohua Local
Government Area of Rivers State, shot dead a man, identified simply Akor in his
father’s compound.
It was learnt that the assailants dragged their victim out
of bed and shot him in presence of his mother, a neighbour said. She added that
the killing was cult related and the killers suspected to be cultists.
The source said, “Trouble started when a political party
bought a cow for Rumuche community. Akor failed to share the cow with other
youths in the area. Some aggrieved cultists killed Akor for failing to produce
the cow, which was alleged to be in his possession.”
The Rivers State Police Command spokesperson said he had not
been fully briefed on the incident.
