A Government House photographer in Bayelsa State, Reginald Dei, has been killed in Southern Ijaw Local Government of the state.
Sources said Dei, who was a popular photographer, was shot by troops of the Joint Task Force (JTF), Operation Delta Safe.
But JTF immediately refuted the allegations saying its troops were not involved in any skirmishes in the local government area during the election.
But giving insight into the killing, the state chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) said Dei was murdered by men in military uniform.
The party said Dei was not the only person killed in the shooting, but also a ward chairman of the party in the state.
