He recently condemned the killings in a statement by his Special Assistant on Media, Kelvin Ebiri, and Nigerians have been reacting.
According to him, the attack can only be described as barbaric and dastardly, and there is absolutely no justification for it.
He added that targeting innocent security personnels on legitimate duty of protecting life and property in the state is really shameful.
His words, βThe Government of Rivers State is saddened by the unwarranted callous attack on security personnel. We offer our sympathies to the relatives of those who lost their lives in the attack.”
βWe condemn this heinous act, share the grief of the security agencies and convey our sincere condolences.”
βWike, has, therefore, demanded that the perpetrators of the attack must be fished out and brought to justice.”
