Fear of reprisal in Akwa Ibom as four policemen kill NURTW chairman
It was gathered that Comrade Udofia, 45, also known as ‘Evolution’, was clubbed to death with guns by four policemen, after attempts to kill him through direct shooting met brick walls.
“A policeman parked his car and was loading passengers near the Itam motor park, when members of the task force working for my husband accosted him and directed that he should enter the park and load so others should not join. “Several other Policemen attached to construction firm, Julius Berger, were called for more reinforcement and more sporadic shooting followed leading to people scampering for safety including the task force officers.”
“All they did was just to direct him to comply with the regulations of loading in the park and not constitute road nuisance by loading on the road side because touting is illegal in Akwa Ibom.
