There was panic at Ogbaku market on Owerri- Onitsha Road in Owerri, Imo state, on Thursday as gunmen invaded the daily market and shot a motorcyclist dead.

“The Okada man refused. They told him three times but he insisted. They got infuriated and shot him three times and he died on the spot before they drove off. They also shot in the air while zooming off.”

The Secretary-General of Ogbaku Youth Association, Justice Nwafor, who confirmed the killing to our correspondent, said the remains of the victim had been evacuated from the scene. He also told our correspondent that the youth body had reported the incident to the Ogbaku Divisional Police Headquarters and that the deceased’s motorcycle had been taken to the police station.

The spokesperson for the state police command, Micheal Abattam, had yet to respond to an inquiry concerning the incident as of the time of filing this report.All rights reserved.
