A family conveying the body of a young man allegedly killed by armed robbers along the Eku-Sapele road in Ethiope East local government area of Delta State, were last weekend attacked and dispossessed of their possessions by a gang of gunmen suspected to be armed robbers yet again.
The family were taking the remains of the deceased, Efe Onosakponwha, who was a victim of a robbery attack at Eku by over 20 gunmen, to their hometown for burial when the gunmen attacked and robbed them.
The incident occurred at about 5:10 pm, Thursday, April 9th, around Okerekpo axis of Eku-Sapele road while members of the Onosakponwha family, including his grieving mother were transporting his remains from Warri General Hospital to Eku for burial.
According to a female member of the family, the family drove into the robbers who disposed them of N90,000 cash and other valuables, despite the presence of a corpse in the car.
The source said:

Owing to the gravity of the gunshot wounds Efe sustained, he was referred to the Warri General Hospital for treatment where N110,000 was demanded for treatment.
His mother went back to Eku to source for the money but was only able to raise N90,000. Upon her return, she was told that her son, who was shot on the behindocks, with the bullet exiting through his groin, was dead.
It was while they were transporting the remains of their son back to Eku that they drove into the robbers who equally rob and disposed them of their cash and other valuables despite the presence of a corpse in the car
