Suspected armed robbers invaded the Akwa Ibom State newspaper company, publishers of the Pioneer Newspaper, and k!lled one of the security guards, Mr Edet Obot.

It was gathered that the robbers stormed the premises of the newspaper located at Information Drive, in Uyo, at around 12 pm on Friday.

The gunmen were said to have carted away other valuables, including a generator set, televisions and wire cables.

A source within the newspaper corporation confirmed the development while speaking on condition of anonymity with Punch in Uyo on Monday.

The source expressed sadness over the death of the security guard, adding that it seems the robbers had help from within

“It’s a very sad development to all of us here, and most unfortunate is that the security officer who was shot d@ad by the criminals was not even a staff of a newspaper corporation, this cannot happen without an insider’s collaboration”, the source said.

The spokesperson of the State Police Command, ASP Timfon John, confirmed the incident.

“We are aware of it and on top of the situation,” the PPRO said.
