The youngman left his home and was spotted outside in Warri area of the state where he met his untimely death to the bullet of an officer attached to the Nigeria Army.

The Delta state Governor Senator Ifeanyi Okowa had sometimes last week ordered for total lockdown of the state in order to contain the spread of the global Coronavirus pandemic popularly called, Covid-19.

In other to ensure compliance of citizens, the state government deployed men of the armed forces and other security agencies to the streets.
