Rampaging unknown gunmen have, on Friday, burnt down Osumenyi, Amichi, and Ezinifite Police Station all in Nnewi South Local Government Area of Anambra State.
This is coming less than 12 hours after unknown gunmen burnt some buildings in Nnewi South Local Government Headquarters, Ukpor, which attracted a visit by Governor Chukwuma Soludo.
Governor Soludo, who visited the Local Government to assess the level of destruction, promised that he will equip the Police and other security agencies to chase out the hoodlums that have been terrorizing residents of the areas.
However, less than 12 hours after the state chief executive’s visit, unknown hoodlums burnt three police stations in the area.
The Anambra state Police Public Relations Officer, Mr. Ikenga Tochukwuu, confirmed the incident, saying that the affected Police Station were all victims of the #EndSARS Police station attacked by hoodlums.
Mr. Ikenga noted that No policeman was killed in the attacks because the police station affected were ones destroyed by hoodlums during the #EndSARS protest and they were being renovated in the respective communities where they were located. But unfortunately, hoodlums went and burnt them again.
Ikenga however, appealed to members of the public to help the police force with any useful information that would lead to the arrest of the people behind the dastardly activities in the area and the state.
