Eket (Akwa Ibom) \u2013 Mr Divine Asubob, an oil services worker at the Qua Iboe Oil Fields, operated by Mobil Producing Nigeria Unlimited, was on Sunday crushed to death at a police check point at Uquo Community in the Esit Eket Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom.<\/p>\n

The deceased met his untimely death when he was flagged down by policemen at the check point and his motorcycle was hit by a truck coming on top speed from the back.<\/p>\n

The policemen at the check point were said to have hurriedly left the scene and returned to the Esit Eket Police Station to forestall possible reprisal attack from the community.<\/p>\n

The body of the victim was reportedly abandoned at the scene of the incident for three hours before it was taken to the morgue in Emmanuel General Hospital in Eket.<\/p>\n

Emmanuel Ikott, a member of the family of the deceased said that Asubob, 32, was a technician with Petrostuff Nig. Ltd and that he was on his annual vacation when the incident happened.<\/p>\n

\u201cAsubob took his leave to complete his house project only to die carelessly, due to the N20 sydrome of policemen and now they have run away and left him in a pool of blood.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe community will not accept this and we shall ensure that justice is done,\u201d Ikott said.<\/p>\n

Police sources in Esit Eket confirmed the incident but declined to give further details. (NAN)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
