Mrs Glory Nkwocha, a Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) Official has been killed by a stray bullet on Thursday in Orlu Town, Imo state.
According to reports, she was killed by a stray bullet at her home during gun duel between Army officers and hoodlums in Orlu Town on Thursday. She’s survived by her young husband and little kids.
Mrs. Glory Nkwocha was later rushed to the Intensive care unit of the Federal Medical Center, Owerri, where she later died on Friday, May 7. Her body has been deposited at the mortuary.
Confirming her death, a source says:
“The woman was in her with her family on Thursday night in Orlu when a stray bullet from the gun battle between security men and gunmen hit her. She lost consciousness. It was difficult taking her to a hospital that night because of the panic nature of the environment.
“She was later taken to the emergency unit of the Federal Medical Center, Owerri, where doctors battled in vain to serve her life. She died on Friday because her case was already bad by the time she was rushed to the hospital.
“This insecurity in Imo is getting out of hands. The woman left a very young family. Her children are young and her husband is a young man, too. The family is very devastated. This death is very unfortunate. She was a very kind person.”
