Chairman of Gbekebor community, Mr. Apala Ebitonmo, who confirmed the incident to Vanguard said, “the victims, identified as Molo Pude and Emeka Godwin, died instantly, while the third, Muhammed Pude, a father to one of the deceased persons, is presently in a hospital in Warri.”
He said, “they died because there was no hospital in the town, which we had severally appealed to the state and local government area to provide, but all to no avail.”
According to him, “the only maternal centre built during the military era is even collapsing, which government is not unaware of, and nothing has been done to revive it.”
Mr. Ebitonmo, called on the state government to come to the aid of the people, adding that it was the duty of government to provide good healthcare facilities for the citizens.
