Gunmen Kill 2 Vigilantes In Kwara
Two vigilante operatives have been reportedly killed by armed men at Shao community of Kwara State.
It was gathered that the gunmen shot the two unarmed operatives of the Vigilante Group of Nigeria (VGN) who were on a motorcycle.
The incident, according to a source who spoke to City & Crime, occurred last week.
“The unarmed vigilantes, who were on their motorcycle, rode into the area where the gunmen were operating, and they opened fire on them.
“The uniform they wore showed they were operatives of Ga Saka VGN command located at Oke-Fomo area.
“The police officers who later came to the scene evacuated their corpses,” he added.
But the VGN boss, who confirmed the development, denied that they were members of the VGN.
“They are not our members. They impersonated us. How they got our uniform is not yet clear. If not because of their picture people sent to us, the command wouldn’t have known anything.
“As far as I’m concerned, our officers are intact. We sent the pictures to all VGN commands under us across the 16 local governments, no one could identify them and up until now, no other VGN group raised an issue on it or came out to claim them,” he said.
When contacted, the Kwara Police Command’s spokesman, Ajayi Okasanmi, said he was yet to be informed about the issue.
