Our correspondent gathered that suspected Dey-Ban cultists invaded some streets in Omoku town, including Oba Road, shooting at random, and at the end, eight people were reported killed.
One Chief EZEGOHURU CHUKUDI-ELUOZO, who confirmed the incident to our correspondent, said he narrowly escaped from the bandits who stormed the town on motorcycles.
Chief CHUKUDI-ELUOZO said the hoodlums fired several gunshots inside his room, before going on the streets.
Two women were among those killed; while the younger brother to one NGOZI PETER, who was also shot dead, told our correspondent that the attack has forced many residents of Omoku town to flee their homes.
