Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike yesterday called for a post-mortem on the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) member, Mr Samuel Okonta, killed during last Saturday’s legislative rerun.
The governor spoke yesterday in Port Harcourt, the state capital, during a condolence visit to the state headquarters of the NYSC.
He said the state government would provide assist the police to probe the killing of the corps member to identify those responsible and prosecuting them.
Wike said: “The death of this corps member is unfortunate and condemnable. I urge the police to thoroughly investigate the crime. The outcome of the investigation should be made public so that those involved are prosecuted. The killing of this corps member must not be swept under the carpet.
“I call for a post-mortem on the corps member so that we can ascertain the type of bullet and the type of gun that killed him. The post-mortem will also determine who bears that type of gun that killed the corps member.”
The governor also pledged to immortalise the late Okonta.
But he was not specific about the type of honour the state would give the slain corps member
