Tuesday, October 08, 2024 - The younger brother of Edison Ehie, the Chief of Staff to the Rivers State Governor has been reportedly killed.
Edison Ehie was on Monday, shot dead during the attack on the
Ahoada East council Secretariat on Monday.
A member of the Inter Party Advisory Council, IPAC made this known
in a statement on Monday.
He said the deceased was shot dead when the gunmen attacked the
area, leaving behind a wife and a new born baby.
Recall that the crisis in Rivers State snowballed into violence on
Monday leading to the killing of a brother to Edison Ehie, the father of a
newly elected councillor, and about three others.
Also, three local government secretariats were torched by
suspected thugs shortly after the Inspector-General of Police, Kayode
Egbetokun, withdrew the policemen guarding the council premises.
The Rivers State PDP loyal to the Minister of the Federal Capital
Territory, Nyesom Wike, described the LG poll on October 6th as an exercise in
futility, vowing to challenge it in court.
Despite the opposition to the poll, Fubara swore in the newly
elected council chairmen at the Executive Council Chamber of the Government
House in Port Harcourt, on Sunday.
