According to information obtained, Paul Bishop Drileba went to survey his land in Ojibari village early Saturday at 9 a.m., which he purchased in September. He was accompanied by seven other people, including a surveyor, to fix mark stones.
However, as soon as they started surveying, they were surrounded by a mob of over 100 people armed with pangas, arrows and bows.
Swaib Toko, the RDC Arua district who rushed to the scene confirmed the murder of Drileba and told URN that the angry mob started cutting Drileba and the Surveyor with pangas as the others fled.
