Delta State Government has called for an investigation into the alleged extrajudicial killing of a 28-year-old, Joseph Pessu in Warri by security agencies on regular patrol duty.
The State Commissioner for Information, Mr Charles Aniagwu in a statement in Asaba said government was worried about the report and has sent a delegation to the deceased family to condole with them over the loss of their son. He stated that the military authorities have been contacted to carry out an investigation into what led to the killing of the deceased.
