Sampson Itode, Port Harcourt
Gunmen on Wednesday invaded Tere-Ama community in the Port Harcourt Local Government Area of Rivers State and killed on person.
Although the reason behind the attack on the community is still unclear, a resident in the area who only identified himself as Somieri told PUNCH Metro that the gunmen attack may be connected to their regular extortion of business owners in the area.
Recall that Chief Tamunokuro Somiari, the paramount ruler of Somieri-Ama community, a neighbouring town had raised an alarm over a threat to his life after some gunmen attacked him at his house.
