A resident of the area, who did not want his name mentioned, disclosed that the unknown bandits killed the two soldiers around Obonoma community.
He asserted: “The information I am getting is that criminal elements attacked the military check points between Obonoma and Abonnema and killed soldiers. “They are bandits who cause us trouble; we are pained by the development. We have asked our people to be vigilant and report any suspicious person to us and the security so that they will be arrested.”Chairman, Council of Chiefs, Obonoma, and the Paramount Ruler of Agu group of House, High-Chief Philip Brown Agu, also slammed the killing of soldiers, which he described as disheartening.
