Saviour Enoch, an undergraduate of the Nigerian Defence Academy (NDA) Kaduna, has been shot dead by suspected cultists in Yenagoa, Bayelsa State capital,

His family has urged security agencies in the state to fish out the killers and bring them to justice.

Mr Ovieakini Enoch, the deceased’s uncle,who made the appeal on Monday in Yenagoa,said that 20-year-old Saviour was shot dead on Saturday night at about 8p.m. along Gwegwe/Naval Road in Ovom, Yenagoa Local Government Area.

He said that Saviour was admitted into the NDA two years ago and that his father, Gbavieme Enoch also died two years ago while serving in the Nigerian Army in Maidugiri, Borno.

According to him, Gbavieme, a Staff Sergeant, was killed while performing a national duty on January 25, 2015.

“That is why Saviour’s death is a painful one. We are calling on the police and other security agencies to assist us to bring the perpetrators to justice.

“I learnt that the Police have made some arrests on Sunday night,” Ovieakini said.

Saviour’s mother, who cried uncontrollably, also urged the security agencies to help the family to fish out the killers.

“My son died by shooting and my husband also died by shooting. My husband was a Staff Sergeant in the Army. He died two years ago and now, my son,” she lamented.

Meanwhile, the spokesman of the Police Command in Bayelsa State, ASP Asimin Butswat said that he would brief journalists on the matter when authorised to do so.
