The incident was said to have taken place at the university community of Idak Okpo, Uyo, around 10.47pm on Monday. The hoodlums, about five in number, invaded the community and shot the victim at a close range while he was trying to escape from a shop.
A witness, Chief Eno Clement, who is the chairman of Idap Okpo Community Development Association, said the assailants shot Mbanefo in the arm. He added that after the incident, some residents the community rushed the victim to a hospital in the area.
He said, “They shot him in the arm and we rushed him to a hospital.” Another witness, Eno Sunday, said doctors at the hospital had been battling to extract pellets from the victim’s arm.
She said Mbanefo was preparing for his national youth service in November before the attack.
At the hospital, a doctor, who did not want her name in print, said, “We have so far removed 14 pellets, while the patient has received blood transfusions because as of the time he was brought here, he had lost a lot of blood.”
