Photo of Channels TV Reporter after he was Stabbed in Okrika


As someone who was born in Rivers State, I know that Okrika and Ogu-Bolo are among the most deadly and violence-prone local government areas in the state. What happened to this guy, Charles Ekua, is just small if you know Okrika and considering the level of atrocities that are perpetrated there.
During the fracas that broke out at the APC governorship rally in Okrika Rivers state yesterday Feb. 17th, a Channels TV Senior correspondent Charles Eruka was stabbed in the neck by some hoodlums. Narrating what happened in an interview with Channels TV, Eruka said the hoodlums stabbed him while he was struggling to keep his phone which they wanted to take from him
"Some of the attackers who have been looting the property of people who had provided the public address system now surrounded me and tried to take my phone away from me on the suspicion that I was actually calling reinforcement to come pick them up. So in the scuffle, I got stabbed in the neck" he said
