Sit-At-Home: Gunmen Burn Down 3 Police Stations In Anambra

Some unknown gunmen have burnt down Osumenyi, Amichi and Ezinifite Police Station all in Nnewi South Local Government Area (LGA) of Anambra State.

ABN TV reports that this is coming less than 12 hours after the hoodlums burnt some buildings in Nnewi South Local Government Headquarters, Ukpor, which attracted a visit by Governor Charles Chukwuma Soludo. There, the Governor had expressed his dismay at the level of destruction going on in his state, vowing to put a stop to it.

Indigenes of Amichi, Ezinifite and Osumenyi alleged that unknown gunmen burning of the three Police stations could be attributed to the promise by state government to equip the Police in the area, after authorities’ visit to Ukpor to assess the level of damage.

The Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO) in Anambra State, Ikenga Tochukwu, confirmed the attack, saying that the affected Police Stations were all initially attacked and destroyed during the #EndSARS protests of October 2020.
