Bayelsa State Governor, Seriake Dickson, has again pleaded with the Nigerian Army to fish out soldiers who allegedly killed government house photographer, Reginald Dei, during the general election at Oweikorogha, Southern Ijaw LGA.

Dickson had made a similar plea earlier in March.

Mr Dei and and a chieftain of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Seidougha Taribi, were brutally shot in their hometown, Oweikorogha.

A statement by Dickson’s spokesperson, Fidelis Soriwei, said the governor paid a condolence visit to the family of the late photographer over the weekend.

Dickson said: “Today, I am here to commiserate with the family of our late Government House Photographer, a young promising man, who is one of the victims of the Federal Government-backed aggression and terrorism in the guise of politics.

“The Federal Government security forces are bent on allowing APC members to carry out all manner of criminal activities and go scot free. Even when they kill people, they set them free. There are a number of them but the security forces don’t even arrest them. Rather they protect them.

“But on our part, we will do our best to ensure that those who did this, don’t go free. At least, we know the APC members who came with the soldiers and pointed Reginald and his brother out to the soldiers as the targets that should be eliminated in that community (Oweikorogha).

“I’ve called on and even formally written to the Nigerian Army Authorities to produce the soldiers who went on that assignment. We will also be interested in knowing on whose orders they were deployed, under whose command they operated and why they took the steps they did.”
