Suspected cultists have killed a young man identified as Saro Godwin in Duburo community in Khana local government area of Rivers State<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Residents of the community told journalists that the gang members invaded the community in a commando-style on Wednesday night and started shooting sporadically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They added that the killing may be the outcome of supremacy battle among various cult groups in the community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Chairman of Doburo Community Development Committee, Vincent Gbosi, who confirmed the incident, said the gang members came into the community through nearby farmland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He said: \u201cSome boys came into the community through nearby farmland and opened fire on the victim while he was relaxing with his friends. The incident happened at 9:30 p.m. on Wednesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur concern is how peace be restored in the community. People are living in fear and we don\u2019t need that. As I speak now, we are making preparation to bury the deceased. We need peace in this community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe officially lodged a complaint to the police at Bori Divisional Headquarters immediately after the incident, and they mobilized to our community.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the spokesman of the Rivers State Police<\/a> Command, Nnamdi Omoni, who also confirmed the incident, said peace has been restored in the area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI can confirm the incidents in Khana. But I don\u2019t have much information on what happened. But our men have been sent there to restore peace.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
