An armed robbery attack which happened on Tuesday along the Sani Abacha Expressway, Yenagoa, Bayelsa State capital, reportedly left one person dead.
The armed robbers were said to have stormed the premises of a
new generational bank in the area and held customers hostage, dispossessing
them of their cash, mobile phones and other valuables.
The deceased, Obele Wilson, a final year engineering
undergraduate student of Bayelsa State-owned Niger Delta University, Amasoma (Pictured above), was in the bank premises when the gang broke in.
Wilson, according to
the Punch, was helping admission seekers to process ND screening forms for a
fee inside the bank.
However, when the
bandits stormed the place and started dispossessing people of their cash and
other valuables, the deceased, an indigene of Ogbia Local Government Area of
the state, allegedly argued with them.
They became furious and
gunned him down.
Some sympathisers were
said to have rushed Wilson to a hospital but he died on the way.
