Florence Onu, 28, was shot dead, Sunday night, in Port Harcourt by armed men
who attacked her along Ada George Road, Rumueme.
Younger sister to the victim, Ebere Amadi,
who witnessed the incident said her sister had a scuffle with the robbers over
her handbag containing N50,000 offerings collected during her church’s evening
service that day.
She said: “We were returning from church
service around 8 p.m when we saw a red Audi coming close to us. Next thing, one
of them grabbed my sister’s bag. There was dragging as my sister held to the
bag. One of them at the back of the vehicle shot my sister as they made away
with the bag. She was already dead before we got to a nearby hospital.
“The N50,000 in her bag was the offering
from the evening service. The pastor asked her to take it home because her
husband who is responsible for keeping the church’s money was not in the
service that day.”
Alex Chidah, a youth leader in the area
while reacting to the incident said: “Ada-George Road has become volatile
lately. The police need to take note. There is a particular gang parading the
area only at night and they have been molesting and killing innocent
residents.”
