Senator Magnus Abe, representing
Rivers South-East Senatorial District, on Tuesday condemned the killing of 20
persons in some communities in Andoni Local Government Area of Rivers State.
Abe condemned the killings in a
statement issued by his Spokesman, Mr Parry Benson, in Port Harcourt.
No fewer than 15 persons were
killed in Omoku, Ogba/Egbema/Ndoni Local Government Area of Rivers State
following attacks by suspected cultists in Asarama, Unyeada and Ajakajak
communities.
Abe expressed his condolences to
the families of those who lost their lives, property and those injured during
the attacks.
The Lawmaker called on the
security agencies to not rest their oars but ensure that the perpetrators of
the heinous crime are persecuted.
“Every life is precious and no
one has the right to take the life of another, because all lives belong to God,
the Creator.
“I pray that God will give
strength to all families directly affected by this tragedy,” he said.
“I beg all Rivers communities to
be good neighbours, provide security and comfort to any displaced persons that
fled to their communities for safety.
“We must find strength to stand
together and defeat this evil,” he said.
