Gunmen Kill Another Policeman In Edo

Unknown gunmen have killed a policeman identified as Oisa Monday Ehigie. Late Monday was the police orderly to the Chairman of Ikpoba-Okha local government area, Dr. Eric Osayande.

He was shot dead on Saturday night at Nomayo Junction along Upper Sokponba road in Ikpoba-Okha local government.

His killings might be connected to the on-going cult war in Bénin City in which several persons have been killed in different parts of the State.


State Commissioner of Police, Hakeem Odumosun, who confirmed the killing said he has visited family of the slain policeman.

He said efforts were on to arrest the killers. Last week, the All Progressives Congress candidate for Owan West constituency, Micheal Ohio Ezomo was abducted while his police orderly was killed.

The abductors are yet to demand for ransom.
