Your headline is misleading. Is d NGO also APC? If bullets enter a man wouldnt his stomach atleast deflate? Where is the wound? Look at d picture u posted very well and show us d wound?As your ardent follower i am beginning to get troubled at d manner you are sacrificing objective reporting for partisanship. Recall how chidi llyod after hitting someone severally with a maze ran to d hospital to lie down. We know their antics. Time will tell.
