“People who heard the gunshots ran for safety, but we later discovered that the shooting was targeted at Iyke, who died on the spot.”

In a similar development, two persons in Lewe community, Gokana Local Government Area of Rivers State on Thursday morning sustained bullet injuries following heavy shooting occasioned from a suspected attack by unknown gunmen, a situation which had forced residents of the communities to desert the area.

“There was heavy shooting in Lewe community today (Thursday), two persons sustained bullet injuries but survived.

“The victims are receiving treatment now, the reason for the attacks is still unclear to us, most the villagers who are afraid have started moving out of the community to avoid being affected.”


When contacted, the state police public relations officer, Nnamdi Omoni confirmed the killing of the youth leader, but could not confirm the shooting at the Gokana community.

“I can confirm the killing of a young man today at Rumuchuakara, in Choba community by unknown gunmen, but I don’t have the report of the shooting in Lewe community.” He said.
