According to Vanguard, the newly married couple had just finished their exchange of vows at Chimezie Catholic Parish, Mgbuishii, Imo state and were heading to the venue for the reception when the armed men stuck.
A villager, who spoke on condition of anonymity gave the name of the dead video camera man as Mr. Isaac Ezirim, while the wounded photographer is Mr. Julius Ashigbu.
“The hoodlums first attacked the vehicle conveying the bride and groom. Although the bullets hit the video camera man and the photographer, the driver of the vehicle sped off. The hoodlums robbed the friends and relations of the couple of cash and other personal valuables, including telephone handsets."the villager said

ReplyDeleteRIP
ReplyDeleteNa wa o. Where r we safe in dis country?
ReplyDeleteHmmmm it should be well investigated
ReplyDeleteMost times when we walk into big malls, boutiques, supermarkets, we never question their prices. We pay exactly what we see on the price tags and even hand out tips to the staff.
But the moment we are out of these shops and want to buy banana, our bargaining game gets off to the roof. Poor widow with 12 hungry children at home tells you banana is N100. She even takes out her time to explain how difficult it was for her to even buy it, how the economy is so tough.
But we insist that if it's not N50, we are not paying. Some of us even step back into our cars and make to drive away. But because 'half bread is better chin chin', this woman is forced to call you back and sell to you at little or no gain. In her heart, she cries, she's worried about how she'll survive with her children. She silently reassures herself that 'It's well.
God will definitely provide.'' While you happily chop the luscious banana. Take some seconds out and think about this, guys. Please don't bargain hard with small vendors like this. They do business not to buy designer bags, Gucci shoes but to LIVE and EAT!
May God help me I'm gonna try and be more benevolent to the petty traders from now on may God help me in Jesus Christ name Amen.
