Gunmen Kill Soldier At Checkpoint, Five Others In Restaurant In Anambra by boman2014: 11:34pm On May 01, 2022
Unknown gunmen have killed a soldier and five other persons in Anaocha and Nnewi South Local Government Areas of Anambra State.

It was gathered that five of the victims were killed at a restaurant in Obiofia village, Osumenyi, in Nnewi South.

The assailants, armed with automatic rifles, cutlasses, and
other dangerous weapons, invaded a military checkpoint in
Agulu on Saturday and opened fire on soldiers, killing one in
the process.

A source told Punch that the gunmen carried out the operation with over three exotic vehicles suspected to have been snatched from the owners.

"They confronted the soldiers for over 10 minutes, causing
residents of the area to scamper to safety, and after a long
gun battle, the men overpowered the soldiers, and they had to withdraw," the source narrated.

"The assailants did not cover their faces, and they were shouting on top of their voices. We saw them; some people
even tried to make videos, but everyone was afraid not to be
spotted and shot,” the source added.

The attack at a bar, also known as ?t? Nd? beer parlour, occurred on Friday when some gunmen invaded it at about
8pm and immediately opened fire, killing its owner, identified as ?t? Nd?, and her four customers.

One Prince Jay who shared videos from the attack said the
victims were prominent members of the community who were relaxing in the restaurant after returning from wedding and burial ceremonies.

Spokesperson of the state Police Command, DSP Toochukwu Ikenga, confirmed the attack at a checkpoint.

"Generally speaking, any attack on any security agent is a
threat to the soul of a nation. Yes, there was a shooting incident at a checkpoint in Agulu but the information is still
sketchy," he stated.

The police spokesperson also said an enquiry about the
restaurant attack was ongoing.

If that's true, how do you think that the ESN can defeat the DSS in a show of strength?

BTW, how can gunmen open fire on people who are chilling out at a bar? This is quite unfortunate.

I always say it's easy to arm non-state actors, but it's pretty hard to say or control what they do with those lethal weapons. RIP to the dead.

If they were serious about wiping
out Fulani herdsmen, they would have gone to Okigwe - Ituru road, Nnewi - Arondizuogu road, and many others but no, they are just snatching exotic cars especially at Ihiala- Azia - Orsumoghu- Orlu axis and killing the owners to use it for their terrorism mission. Truth be told those UGM are Biafran apologists. I’m saying this based on experience.. No matter the denial by Simon Ekpa. A notable gubernatorial candidate who went for Campaign at Azia, was kidnapped and has not been seen again for over 6 months. When Owerri road was blocked as a result of the protest by trailer drivers, many people that followed the alternative road were kidnapped and their missing person poster is flying all over the internet. Simon Ekpa is responsible for all these.

Please, the remaining Igbos that are sensible, beware of those among you who have flatness in their skulls.
