The Delta Online Publishers Forum (DOPF) has called for transparency and accountability in dealing with the recent tragic loss of lives in Okuama community, Ughelli South Local Government Area of the state.

DOPF in a statement by the chairman, Emmanuel Enebeli and Secretary, Shedrack Onitsha, condoled the Nigerian Army and Okuama community, following the devastating and unfortunate incidents.

The forum said, “The heinous killing of 17 military personnel and the subsequent collateral damages which have consumed numerous civilians in a frenzy of reprisal attacks, deeply saddens and diminishes us all as humans.

“As we seek swift justice for the gallant fallen heroes, we equally emphasize the importance of upholding rules of engagement and established judicial procedures, especially as defined in Democratic systems.

“With Nigeria not in a state of war or widespread civil unrest, it is imperative that operations prioritize citizen rights and safety.

“We urge immediate dialogue between government authorities and the military to facilitate access to Okuama Community for humanitarian assessment and aid distribution.

“Additionally, a thorough investigation into the remote and attendant causes of the Okuama conflict, as already directed by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, must necessarily include alleged cases of extra-judicial killings during military operations, which will not only be crucial to uphold justice and maintain public trust but will hopefully also serve as a watershed reference in addressing subsequent brewing conflicts of similar symptomatic indices across the country.
