Eyewitness account told our correspondent in Lokoja on Monday that the incident happened in the afternoon of Sunday in the Akpanya community located at the boundary of Kogi and Enugu States.
It was gathered that no sooner that the hoodlums entered the community than the security agents, including the vigilantes, advanced and confronted them in a gun duel. Locals said the hoodlums managed to carry away two dead bodies of their members while retreating in a hurry to their state.In its reaction, the Kogi State government stated that hoodlums coming from other states to terrorise the Akpanya community had crossed the red line of the state, as such, they would be confronted with heavy hands of the state.
He said Governor Bello had directed a total overhaul of the security of the area to ward off future attack of the outlawed group who takes delight in terrorising the people of Kogi in that area.
