Solomon, on Monday, said the gunmen entered the house while the soldier was discussing with his family members.

He said: “The incident occurred at about 11 p.m. on Sunday when the bandits wielding AK-47 rifles invaded the house to abduct the stepmother, but the soldier resisted.

“Meanwhile, the gunmen notice his uniform hanging on the cushion and resort to gunning him down without hesitation.”
