The group which has, however, been disbanded in Emohua was, it was accused of killing three persons during a shootout in Ibaa Community on Saturday.

Chikwenekpe Emordu, whose brother, Chinedu Emordu was killed in the shooting said members of OSPAC carried out the attack.

He alleged that operatives of the vigilante group have engaged in senseless killings in the community, adding that it might plunge the community into further crises.

He, however, alleged that some politicians in the area are sponsoring the activities of the OSPAC operatives.
