BENIN – THE Amagba Community, in Oredo Local Government Area of Edo State, have called for an investigation to ascertain the circumstances under which its Community Head, Godspower Erhumwun was murdered eight years ago.
It will be recalled that Erhumwun met his tragic end from what family sources said are bullet injuries sustained from gunshot wounds, following an attack after repeated arguments with other community members over the oil and gas discovery in the village.
Majority of the community members wanted to sell the land but Pa Erhumwun as Community head objected because it is sacred land.
Giving an account of what transpired, in February 2012, a source pleading anonymity claimed that they were at home early in the morning when they heard gunshots in the direction of Pa Erhumwun’d house.
