Description

The Bayelsa State Government has called on the people of Kabeama Community in Sagbama Local Government Area and their Amatolo neighbours in Southern Ijaw Area of the state to be calm in the wake of the beheading of a lady by her boyfriend on Saturday.

The Deputy Governor, Lawrence Ewhrudjakpo, in a statement issued by his media aide, Doubara Atasi, said government had been properly briefed about the incident and appropriate measures were being taken to ensure that justice was served.

Ewhrudjakpo, who strongly condemned the dastardly act whereby an indigene of Kabeama allegedly beheaded his girlfriend, on Saturday, described the development as “totally unacceptable.”

He stated that the security agencies have since swung into action, in line with government directives on the matter.
