A notorious criminal
called Bobrisky in Gokana Local Government Area of the state has been fingered
in the killing.

Thursday when he handed over 40 Patrol Vans fitted with Communication Gadgets
to Federal Special Anti-Robbery Squad (FSARS), See 4 Eye, Police
Anti-Kidnapping, Police Anti-Cultism, Federal Road Safety Corps and Eagle Crime

He noted that the state government
had proscribed all youth groups operating in the state because they had been
hijacked by cultists.
“Rivers State Government
is fully prepared and will do everything required to protect lives and
property. Without the protection of lives and property, there will be no
governance and development.
“We are one State that has
suffered neglect from the Federal Government in terms of support to fight
insecurity.
“They have refused to pay
back funds that we used in constructing Federal projects. But that will not
stop us from intervening when the need arises,” he said.
The Governor said that he
resolved to increase the support to the security agencies because of the
successes recorded by Operation Sting.
He regretted that cultists
had taken over youth groups across the State, necessitating the state
government proscribing all youth groups.
“Anybody operating under a
youth body henceforth will be arrested by security agencies. Before you contest
for any youth body’s leadership, you must send the names to the DSS and Police
for screening. If they are cultists, we will not allow them to operate,” he
said.
The governor warned that
the vehicles and gunboats donated to the security agencies must be deployed to
secure Rivers State.
