A Nigerian army major and three soldiers were shot dead today in
Abonnema in Akuku-Toru LGA of Rivers state less than 48 hours before the
crucial supplementary legislative elections are scheduled to take place
in the state.
A source told Saharareporters that the soldiers ran into an ambush set up by militants in the volatile state.
The state governor, Nyesom Wike had engaged in rallies across the
state, and repeatedly threatened that anyone attempting to rig election
against his People’s Democratic Party (PDP) candidates will be killed.
