Social critic and activist, Chief Rita Lori-Ogbebor has condemned the killing of four Itsekiri youths by suspected Ijaw youths, Tuesday in the riverine areas of Warri, Delta State. She called on the Federal Government to nip the crisis in the bud before it escalates.
.
Addressing newsmen in Lagos, yesterday, Chief Lori-Ogbebor, said aside those killed, houses and property were also destroyed by the Ijaw youths.
.
She said: "The crisis in Delta State started on Tuesday morning, when Ijaws launched an attack on Itsekiri villages. The first village is a place called Ayurode (Mount Zion), where 16 houses were razed.
.
They proceeded to Gbokoda where they razed 26 houses. The most beautiful house there was brought down by a rocket launcher. They went on to Ajamita, where they razed seven houses and killed six people.
.
Three of those killed are in Sapele mortuary.
Of course such things would definately be condemned cos it makes no sense. Killing is really not a good thing to do.
