Corps members were attacked yesterday afternoon June
26th along Ekpoma road in Edo state. One of the victims of the robbery
said that the incident happened when members of the NCCF Edo state from
Auchi were on their way to Benin for NCCF Edo state conference. But on
getting to Ekpoma, they started hearing gun-shots and before they knew
what was happening, thin-looking fierce men with sophisticated guns
began firing gun-shots directly at the bus they were traveling in. Two
Corps members were shot but fortunately, it wasn't fatal. More pics
after the cut...
The armed men made the Corpers come out of the vehicle and lie in the mud in the middle of the express-way where they kept demanding for money and other valuable items and also kept hitting some of them with the back of their guns. The Corpers were robbed of their money, phones, laptop. The ones who were shot are currently in Central Hospital, Benin receiving medical treatment.
