 GUNMEN KILL YOUNG POS OPERATOR IN GBOKO ROBBERY ATTACK 

Residents of Gboko, Benue State, have been thrown into mourning following the killing of a young point-of-sale (POS) operator, Luther Raphael Kunde, by suspected armed robbers.


The incident reportedly occurred at Titus De Great Abagu area of Gboko South, opposite Bem House, where the victim operated his POS business. Eyewitnesses said the attackers struck suddenly while Kunde was attending to customers, shot him, and fled with an undisclosed amount of cash.

Kunde was said to be a 200-level student of the National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN), combining his studies with the small business.


Community members and groups, including the AMMBAN Gboko chapter, have expressed condolences to the bereaved family.


The Benue State Police Command is yet to issue an official statement, but residents are calling for improved security in the area.
