Three APC members who were mistaken for armed
robbers were killed by a mob in Adikpo in Kwabde local government area in Benue
state yesterday April 18th.
According to Facebook user, Apiah Ehpraims who is
the Senior Special Assistant on Media at ALGON Benue state, the men killed were
Denen Agber Kur, Sega Agber Kur and Jagba Uhembe. Read what he wrote on his
page after the cut...
Contrary to reports
on the social media that three armed robbers were killed earlier today at
Adikpo, a reliable source has just confirmed to me that the trio burnt by angry
mob were not armed robbers as speculated but members of the All Progressive
Congress APC from Mbadura council ward of Turan. According to the source, the
trio identified as Denen Agber Kur, Sega Agber Kur and Jagba Uhembe were in
Adikpo to escort sensitive materials for the APC primaries to their ward. Upon
reaching Adikpo and waiting for the distribution exercise to commence, the trio
sat at a buruku joint near the Kwande APC Secretariat to sip the local brew. It
was at that point that robbers stormed a filling station in same location and
after the robbers took off on motorbikes. The trio, relatively unknown faces to
the angry youth of the area became suspect and killed instantly and set them
ablaze.
