The Okuama community in Delta State, Nigeria, finds itself embroiled in a tragic incident involving the killing of soldiers from the 63 Brigade. However, the people of Okuama vehemently deny any involvement in the heinous act, pointing fingers at individuals disguised in army uniforms who carried out the attack.

In a heartfelt plea to President Bola Tinubu, Onajite Idiaphoro, a resident of Okuama, called for an end to the military invasion of their community. Idiaphoro recounted the harrowing events that unfolded during a routine community meeting, where armed men in military attire stormed in, resulting in the deaths of two individuals and injuries to many others. The community chairman was targeted for questioning, leading to a violent confrontation that left residents in fear for their lives.

As the chaos escalated, more lives were lost, homes were set ablaze, and the peaceful community of Okuama was left reeling from the devastation. Idiaphoro expressed disbelief at the accusations that the unarmed fishermen and farmers of Okuama could have orchestrated such a brutal attack on armed soldiers. He called for a thorough investigation by authorities to uncover the truth behind the tragic events that unfolded in their community.

The Governor of Delta State, Sheriff Oborevwori, condemned the killings as a stark departure from the values and traditions of the people of Delta. He emphasized the need for justice to prevail and for those responsible for the senseless violence to be brought to account.

In the wake of this tragedy, the residents of Okuama are left mourning the loss of their loved ones and grappling with the aftermath of the violent incursion into their peaceful community.
