It was a narrow escape for an employee of Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) Mr. Daniel Sagay, his wife and child, after they were allegedly attacked by a retired Army General.
But a mobile policeman attached to Mr. Sagay was not so lucky, as he was butchered by the thugs, who were said to be acting on the orders of a local government official, who is also a prominent member of the community where the victim comes from.

A GMC Explorer SUV, with the registration number, HQ570 EKY, belonging to the victims, was also set ablaze by the thugs.
The retired soldier was alleged to have swooped on them at Ughevwhughe community, in Ughelli South Local Government Area of Delta State. The couple, now in pains, has also raised alarm over alleged threat to their lives and those of the members of their families, by the military officer and top official of the Delta State government (names withheld).

The Police Public Relations Officer(PPRO), Mr. Charles Muka, confirmed the attack on the policeman but said he was not aware that the life of Mr. Sagay was being threatened by some prominent indigenes of the community.

However, Mr. Sagay, who stormed The SUN office in Warri with his traumatized wife and son, insisted that their lives were in danger because of the threats by some faceless individuals, who he said, had vowed to make life unbearable form him, if he continued to seek justice.

He said: “I have been forced to make this passionate plea to the world, because I am no longer safe; my wife and son are not safe either. We have abandoned our house because of the threat. My wife, who was receiving treatment after the attack, had to be discharged from the hospital immediately.”

“My son has been withdrawn from school, because our lives are in danger. I, the victim of the attack, is now being hounded and I am using this medium to appeal to well meaning individuals, security agencnies and the Delta State government, to wade into the matter to ensure that this act of terrorism is not allowed to go univestigated and unpunished.”

He explained that his efforts to get justice over the atack was being truncated by the perpetrators of the evil act, adding that even the police seemed helpless, in view of the overbearing influence of the perpetrators in the community.

But the PPRO told Daily Sun that the police were investigating the incident, adding that the rifle gun assigned to the mobile policeman had been recovered while investigation was going on.
