One Mr. Jonah Sokolo, a driver with the Abua Odual Local Government Transport Service, has been reportedly shot dead by kidnappers after his bus was attacked along the East West Road in Rivers State.
The kidnappers also made away with all the other passengers on board the 30-seater Coaster Bus.
The incident occurred on Thursday evening along the Emohua axis of the road.
The bus was heading to Abua Oduah town from Port Harcourt when the kidnappers ambushed them along the route, which has become road users’ nightmare in recent times.
Nnamdi Omoni, Public Relations Officer of the Rivers State Police Command, confirmed the incident but said the details were still sketchy at press time .
Recently, four human heads were chopped chopped off in a cult attack in the same area.
One person who narrated his harrowing experience to SaharaReporters said his brother was a victim of the kidnappers last weekend.
