Many of those who reacted to the their killing said although they are in jubilant mood they however wish that the authorities of 6 Division Nigerian Army Port Harcourt displayed his corpse in Omoku because of the rumours that made the round last year November that the notorious cult leader, kidnap kingpin and mass murderer Don Wani was killed after one hour gun battle with the army in his hideout but later turn round to be false.
Those spoken to expressed a tragi-comic feeling that for the atrocities committed by the notorious kigpin seeing his lifeless body on the streets of
Omoku would have been
cathartic to the hundreds if families and businesses that his gang ruined their lives.

Meanwhile, the Special Adviser to
Governor Nyesom Wike on Amnesty Mr. Ken Chinda warned repentant cultists and kidnappers who are presently enjoining the state government but go back to crime will suffer the same fate like Don Wani as nobody can fight the government.
