Four persons beheaded in rivers

Breaking News: Four persons beheaded in Rumuji, Rivers State.

 



Four persons have been beheaded in the latest cult-related attack at Ovogo, Rumuji in Emohua Local Government Area of Rivers State.


The four severed heads were found on the road in the community on Wednesday morning, TPCN learnt.


The identities of the victims have not been ascertained but locals say they are young men in their mid-20s.


It was gathered that a sachet of an alcoholic drink, a bottle of a beverage drink and a half-smoked cigarette were left at the scene.


This comes days after the Rivers State police command promised it is tackling the issues of cult-killings head-on.


A community source told our correspondent on the phone that the community has been deserted, over fears of reprisal attacks.


He said that gunshots rented the air throughout the night, adding that they woke to the reality of the four severed heads.


He added that the trunks were left in an uncompleted building in the community.


Another community source who did not want to be mentioned told our correspondent that there was a disagreement between Iceland cult group and De bam cult group over who would collect certain levies.


He added that attempts to settle the dispute by youths in the community did not make much success leading to the renewed cult battle.


Our community source stressed that the leadership of the community was thrown into turmoil, adding that so many p[ersons have left the community as fear heightened over the discovery of the severed heads.


He explained that government and security agents have abandoned them to their fate.


TPCN reached out to the spokesperson of Rivers State police command, Nnamdi Omoni, for comments on the matter but his phone was switched off.

Plateau PDP Guber Candidate, Sen. JT Useni Serves Petition on INEC, APC & Gov. Lalong

24APR



Information reaching Viewpoint Nigeria is that the Legal Team of the PDP Gubernatorial Candidate in Plateau State, Sen. JT Useni has successfully served Petition on INEC, APC and Gov. Lalong challenging the declaration of the incumbent Governor as the winner of the just concluded Gubernatorial Election.


This information is contained in a Press Text sign by Hon. Abraham Yiljap, Chairman Media and Publicity Committee of the PDP State Campaign Council as seen herein:


Plateau PDP State Campaign Council
Media and Publicity Committee.


PRESS STATEMENT


SEN. JT USENI SERVES GOVERNORSHIP PETITION ON INEC, LALONG AND APC.


The legal team of the PDP Plateau governorship candidate Sen. Jeremiah Timbut Useni has successfully served his petition on the three Respondents – Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Governor Lalong and the All Progressives Congress (APC).


While the tribunal bailiffs easily had access to INEC and APC to effect service, they were turned back three times at the gates of the Government House by security operatives who told them that the Governor was “nowhere to be found.”


Useni’s lawyers were then compelled to approach the tribunal with an application for substituted service of the governor through his party, the APC. This was granted by the tribunal. The governor has therefore been appropriately served.


With this successful service, the Respondents have 21 days to file their replies to the issues raised by the Applicants – Sen Useni and the PDP, after which the tribunal could announce dates for hearing.


After being briefed by the legal team, Sen Useni said he is satisfied with the work done so far by the lawyers.


“I believe in the integrity of the judiciary. I believe that the Honourable justices will do their best to ensure that justice is done on the matters before them.”


Sen Useni has also appealed to PDP members and supporters to be and remain in high spirits “because we have a very strong case at the tribunal. We must not allow anything to distract us from the crucial battle ahead of us. We cannot afford to disappoint the people of Plateau who are looking up to us to restore their stolen mandate.”
