The ISRCA National Coordinator, Comrade (Amb.) Derrick Oritsematosan Agberen, said in a statement made available to our correspondent in Warri:
“This crime should not go unnoticed or unpunished, particularly in the state capital, Asaba.”
The group, advocating for justice in the case, added:
“The police should by now be conducting interrogations of residents, colleagues, and close friends to gather pertinent information that could yield actionable leads.”
According to the group: “The situation is not good and should raise serious concerns for everyone, especially residents of Asaba.”
