Aluu turns Ghost Town as Police Arrest 5 more Suspects

Omuokere-Aluu community in Ikwerre Local Government Area of Rivers State, where four male students of the University of Port Harcourt were killed by an angry mob is now a ghost town. This was just as police arrested five more suspects in connection with the killings.

In the meantime, men of the Rivers State Police Command and 2 Amphibious Brigade, Nigerian Army, Port Harcourt have taken over the entire community.

It was gathered that villagers and residents fled the community last Tuesday, when the students of the institution went on rampage to protest the killings and consequently razed dozens of building, while no fewer than 30 cars were destroyed.

Meanwhile, five persons who were seen near the spot where the four students were killed at Omuokere, were arrested by security operatives who had been deployed to the town to maintain law and order.
