IPOB Sit-at-Home: Panic As Gunmen Kill Policeman, Two Others In Anambra

 

Unknown gunmen have killed at least, three persons in two communities in Anambra state for violating the Monday sit-at-home exercise, according to DailyPost.

 

Recall that the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB had months back announced every Monday to be a day to sit at home, in protest to the extraordinary rendition of its leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu from Kenya last year.

 

However, the group later called off the exercise, yet some unidentified persons wielding guns continued to enforce compliance with the exercise.

 

On Monday, while one person was shot dead in Utuh, Nnewi South Local Government Area, two others were shot dead at Ozubulu, Ekwusigo Local Government Area.

 

The men were said to have been shot by gunmen, who protested their violation of the sit-at-home exercise.

 

The two incidences were confirmed by the Anambra State Police Command. The spokesperson of the command, DSP Toochukwu Ikenga who confirmed it said one of the two men shot in Ozubulu was a policeman.

 

Command has also mobilized fully to counter any further attacks,” he told DAILY POST.
