Bayelsa Election Violence : Dickson Weeps As Gunmen Kill 4 Policemen , 2 Soldiers & 8 Civilians

At least 14 people died during the supplementary election
that held yesterday in Southern Ijaw Local Government
Area of Bayelsa.
Among those allegedly killed were four policemen, two
soldiers and eight civilians.
In a statement signed by the Chief Press Secretary to the
Governor, Daniel Iworiso-Markson, the governor accused
the All Progressives Congress (APC) chieftains of
masterminding the killings of innocent Bayelsans in Brass,
Ekeremor, Nembe and Sothern Ijaw and wondered why the
APC would kill to capture power.
The governor wept for those who were killed and prayed for
the repose of their souls. While calling for the arrest of the
perpetrators of the crime, Governor Dickson condoled the
families of those who have lost their dear ones.
