President Bola Tinubu met with Governor Sheriff Oborevwori on Tuesday, over the killing of some officers and soldiers of the Nigerian Army in Delta State recently.

Osun Defender reports that Governor Oborevwori was at the State House in Abuja to brief the President on developments.

Speaking after he met with the President, the Governor told journalists that the situation had been brought under control and the hoodlums who killed the sixteen soldiers in Okuoma community, Ughelli South council area of the state last week would be brought to justice.

Oborevwori added that plans have been put in place to forestall the reoccurrence of such attacks.

He, however, refused to confirm the report of reprisal attacks allegedly carried out by the military and the number of casualties, saying that, being a security issue, there are certain things he cannot say in public.

The Delta State Governor added that he met with the security heads in Bomadi on Monday but has been unable to meet with the community involved because the place of the incident is completely deserted.
