SUG PRESIDENT GUN DOWN
The shocking killing of Samuel Sampson Udo, a 26-year-old former student leader at the Peace Institute of Management and Technology in Akwa Ibom State, has plunged his community into deep grief. Udo was shot dead during his father’s funeral rites in Cross River State, turning a moment meant for mourning into a scene of terror.
The event, which had been peaceful, erupted into chaos when rival cult groups clashed, unleashing gunfire without warning. A resident, Utum Ofem Ubi, recalled how Udo was hit by bullets as he tried to escape. In seconds, the gathering shifted from calm conversation and music to panic, screams, and people running for safety, locking themselves indoors.
Witnesses say the incident occurred at about 2 a.m. on October 31, 2025, during what appeared to be a violent “show of strength” between the cult groups. The attack not only claimed Udo’s life but also left several others critically injured, including 29-year-old Miss Choice Ikenger, who reportedly still has bullets lodged in her body.
For Udo’s family, the trauma remains unbearable. His mother and siblings say the image of his body riddled with bullets haunts them. His sister, Miss Affiong Sampson, described the killing as a savage act.
> “They shot him as if he was an animal,” she said. “His body is still in the mortuary. Our entire family has been in pain since that day.”
