said“The attackers who were not masked asked us to lie down; some of us run to
the bush. The gunmen immediately shot at the MP who was in his Land Cruiser at
the time.

who was groaning in pain as he asked for water. He was not responding to my
calls when I returned with the drink”, the witness recounted.
