NWANIBA AGAIN?

While the entire state was gathered at AKHA for #thelist, two young men went to Nwaniba side to steal and luckily, they were caught.

Otobonq Gideon reports that the suspected criminals were seen somewhere around Use Offot with a tricycle and a big generator inside.

Upon noticing the police, they fled with the tricycle which triggered the police to chase after them and eventually caught them at Ibiaku Offot.

They have been taken to the police station.

Nwaniba people, una don suffer ehhhhh!!

Viewers discretion is strictly advised.

TRUCK CRUSHED A WOMAN INTO 2 HAPPENED LIVE @ ELEME JUNCTION PORT HARCOURT RIVERS STATE THIS MORNING

For some of us that uses *Keke na pepe* (tricycle) for our day to day running around sometimes to beat traffic should always be extremely careful while in transit. Do not allow a reckless and arrogant driver drive you to death. Always shout them down and possibly leave the Keke if push comes to shove.

This innocent woman was driven to death this morning by a *fast and furious* driver trying to overtake a truck in motion after engaging him on a drop service, she had goods (foodstuffs) on her..

Quite SAD
