Unknown gunmen killed three policemen yesterday in Port Harcourt, the Rivers State capital, as they were escorting to the Port Harcourt International Airport, Omagwa, the state’s contingent to Jerusalem.
One of the would-be pilgrims was injured in the attack between the Port Harcourt City Centre and the dualised road to Omagwa.
Rivers police spokesperson Rita Inoma-Abbey, who confirmed the incident, said the injured intending pilgrim’s condition was not critical. He would be able to make the journey, she said.
Inoma-Abbey, who noted that details of the attack were still sketchy as at press time last night, said the police were on the trail of the hoodlums. She was optimistic that they would soon be arrested.
