The attack on the Bristow compound in Eket was well executed.
Initial assault was at the entrance gate and upon hearing the gunfire, one of the people drinking at Nancy's Bar pulled a gun and took five hostages who were drinking there.
A group of gunmen then entered House 19 where a Malyasian Engineer and Indonesian Pilot were taken.
The MoPo's supposed to be guarding the compound turned up out of uniform after the shooting and claimed to have made a gallant stand against 15 gunmen.
None of the Police or the Gunmen were wounded or killed. Only the local unarmed staff were killed or wounded.
Calls to the Mobil camp for assistance failed to get any help dispatched. Bristow staff transported the wounded Nigerian staff to hospital without any assistance from Mobil.
Reports seem to show some of the Bristow Expat staff will be leaving as a result of the attack.
