With tears in our eyes we condemn the invasion of Amorokeni Community in Ogbia L.G.A, Bayelsa state, the only place we can call our home by unknown assailants and armed bandits who stormed the community on Sunday night shooting sporadically with sophisticated weapons, harassing, degrading, molesting, intimidating, striping naked innocent women, injuring many with serious machete injuries , and leaving one with a serious injury on the leg with a gun shot, destroying properties worth millions of naira while going away with cash worth millions, mobile phones and other important belongings and throwing the peaceful community to a war zone.
Never again will this happen in our land.
While we are counting our losses, and doing everything possible within our reach to identify and bring the perpetrators to book, we hereby call on security agencies, well meaning individuals within Ogbia L.G.A, Bayelsa state and Nigeria generally to come to our aid so collectively we will bring an end to this unholy and ugly trend bedeviling Ogbia Kingdom.
