Gunmen kill two in A’Ibom fishing communities
Gunmen have killed two persons in the fishing communities of Ayadehe and Mbiabo in Oku Iboku, Itu local government area of Akwa Ibom State.
The council chairman, Etetim Onuk, on Wednesday called on the State and Federal Governments come to the aid of the fishing community and forestall further loss of lives and properties. “I am saddened by this unpleasant development and therefore appeal to the federal Government to beef up security in creeks by introducing a 24-hour military and police marine patrol along the waterways bordering the affected communities”, Onuk said.He said a situation where armed marauders invade from the creeks, kill and maim at will was not acceptable, hence the urgent need to act so as to complement the efforts of the military and other security agents stationed on land.
