Former Commissioner for Higher Education in Delta state and her daughters were kidnapped while three persons including a police officer attached to her were killed by gunmen in Asaba.
Hon. Mrakpor recently resigned her appointment to pave way for her younger brother to contest the Local Government Area (LGA) Chairmanship election in Aniocha South.
It was learnt that the incident happened Tuesday evening, around 5 pm at the Church premises, known as King Jesus & I Church, located off Delta Broadcasting Service DBS Asaba, Delta state capital.
According to an eyewitness account, “there was commotion right inside her Church close to Sooth Apartment DBS Road. We all ran due to the heavy gun shooting. It just happened about few minutes ago, one aide shot dead and a security personnel on conscious now”.
When contacted, Delta State Police public relations Officer, SP Bright Edafe, confirmed the ugly incident.
He said Police personnel have deployed to go after the hoodlums.
