The House of Representatives has promised to dig dip into the March 14 killing of military men and the ensuing carnage unleashed on Okuama community in Ughelli South Local Government Area of Delta State.
The Chairman of the House Committee on Defence, Benson Babajimi, made the promise when he led other members on a visit to the Government House Annex at Edjeba in Warri South Local Government Area where a public investigative hearing on the Okuama crisis was scheduled to hold.
The chairman said the committee would visit the ravaged community after gathering sufficient information on the crisis.
But residents of the community were absent at the hearing.
The Nation learnt that the absence of the residents might have arisen from the fear of being arrested by the military.
Though it could not be confirmed, there were speculations that the Nigerian Army had again declared more persons wanted over the killings.
