Delta State Governor, Sheriff Oborevwori on Tuesday briefed President Bola Tinubu on the latest development in Okuama community, Ughelli, following the gruesome murder of 16 soldiers and the burning of some parts of community by unknown persons.

 

Briefing State House correspondents after meeting behind closed-doors with the President, Oborevwori said that the situation is under control, assuring that there will be no further attacks.

 

The governor declined to confirm the report of reprisal attacks allegedly carried out by the military and the number of casualties, insisting that certain details in such matters cannot be made public.

 

He said that he met with the security heads in Bomadi on Monday but has been unable to meet with the community involved because the place of the incident is completely deserted.
