The Minister of Interior, Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, has issued a marching order for the arrest of sea pirates who killed four personnel of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) in Rivers State a week ago.

Tunji-Ojo said the suspected sea pirates must be tracked and made to face the wrath of the law for killing officers of the Corps who were on national assignment to protect the country’s assets.

Four NSCDC personnel on pipeline surveillance patrol were a week ago attacked and killed by suspected sea pirates on the Bakana River in the Degema Local Government Area of the oil-rich state.

NSCDC Commandant General, Ahmed Abubakar Audu, while addressing personnel of the Corps in Port Harcourt when he visited the Rivers State Command, said the Minister of Interior also directed that compensation be paid to the families of the slain personnel
