The Imo State Police command and Nigeria Security and Civil Defense Corps, NSCDC, have visited the Umucheke Community in Onuimo Council Area of Imo state, where eight persons were shot dead by yet-to-be-identified gunmen last Saturday.
This was revealed to journalists on Sunday in Owerri by the Imo State Police Public Relations Officer, PPRO, Henry Okoye.
He alleged that it was gunmen suspected to be members of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, that carried out the attack just as he vowed that they would apprehend the attackers.
In the statement the command said; “Today, 04/8/2024, the Commissioner of Police, Imo State Command, CP Aboki Danjuma together with the Sole Administrator of Onuimo LGA Dr. Emeka Obi, representative of the Commander 34 Artillery Brigade, Major AI Maikarifi, Commandant NSCDC, Comdt. Mathew Ovye and other security agencies visited Umucheke Community in Onuimo LGA for an on-the-spot assessment of the tragic incident that claimed the lives of over 8 members of Eze Umucheke Cabinet yesterday who were gruesomely murdered by hoodlums suspected to be members of the proscribed IPOB/ESN.
He further said,“CP Aboki Danjuma commiserated with the families of the bereaved and the entire community members over the unfortunate death of their loved ones and assured them that security agencies in the State are working in synergy to apprehend the miscreants responsible for the dastardly act and make them face the full wrath of the law”.
