This may not be connected to fresh crisis between neighbouring communities in the area less than 24 hours after the exit of the troops from Okuama, culminating in the killing of one person while three other persons were seriously injured.

“The latest killing showed that the people of Okuama can kill human at the slightest provocation; the sanctity of human life means nothing to them. It also shows that neighbouring Ijaw communities like Okoloba are not safe.”
