When she resisted, the soldier reportedly became aggressive, prompting Timothy to confront him.
The situation allegedly escalated, resulting in the soldier firing his weapon and fatally wounding Timothy, who died on the spot. According to reports, the soldier then retreated into the compound while other security personnel later removed the boy’s body.
The incident caused panic in the community and disrupted New Year festivities. Akpan also reported that a vehicle belonging to Obong Uyai Udoiwod, a former political adviser to the Ikot Abasi Local Government Chairman, was damaged during the unrest that followed the shooting.
