At least two persons have been killed after
violence erupted in Eku community, Ethiope East
Local Government Area of Delta State.
A yet-to-be identified member of the National
Youth Service Corps, NYSC, was reportedly
abducted by the gunmen.
The incident occurred after some heavily armed
gunmen numbering over 20 laid siege at the
community.
The deceased, both whom are males in their early
30s, sustained life threatening gunshot wounds
and died the next day (Thursday) at the Delta
State Teaching Hospital, Oghara.
The victims were referred from the Eku Baptist
Government Hospital, where they had earlier been
rushed to for medical attention.
Confirming the abduction of the youth corps member, a senior police officer attached to the Abraka Police station said: “It is true that an NYSC member was abducted by the gunmen, but we do not have detail of the person yet.”
On his part, the Delta State Police Public Relation
Officer, PPRO, DSP Celestina Kalu said she was yet to get any official report on the abduction of the corps member.
