Master, Christopher Omoraka who was said to be in his late 20s died from a bullet wounds sustained at his father’s compound along Oviri-Ogor/Edjekota road when the armed men attacked his father, Pastor Nicholas Omoroka and chased him into the forest.

“The man on sighting the suspected assassins shooting at him, sped off, ran into a bush and escaped from them but his son was not so lucky to escape from the attack.

“The son, who was at a friend’s house on hearing gun shots sound, jumped into the compound to make inquiry from the assailant and there he was shot on his stomach while they escaped into the forest without any hitches.

According to sources, after killing the son, they went into the bush in search of the clergy for a long period but could not find the man.

The clergy’ son Christopher, was being rushed to the hospital, when he died from the bullet wound.

One of the sources noted that the deceased who was temporarily staying with his father, had built a duplex of his own and was to move into the new apartment by the end of October before the untimely death.

Sources alleged that the local vigilantes group in the community could not be contacted during the attack as all efforts made to reach out to them was not successful.
