Barely 24 hours after a deadly attack on security facilities in Imo State, gunmen on Tuesday attacked another police station in the state, freeing detainees and razing down the building.
Tuesday’s target by the gunmen, was the Ehime Mbano Local Government Area Divisional Police Headquarters, where the gunmen were said to have operated without any resistance from security agencies.
Tuesday’s incident happened a few hours after Vice President Yemi Osinbajo and outgoing Inspector General of Police Muhammed Adamu left the state.
A Federal Government team of the VP, IGP and the Minister of Interior, Rauf Aregbesola, were in the state to inspect the level of damage on the burnt security facilities.
The outgoing IGP Adamu had accused members of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, and the Eastern Security Network, ESN, of carrying out the attacks.
