A Gun Battle erupted between soldiers and yet-to-be-known gunmen in Ehime Mbano Local Government Area of Imo State, allegedly leaving scores dead and many injured.

According to the Nation, the attack occurred at the Aba branch in Ehime Mbano last night.

“Some non-state actors attacked and killed some soldiers in the area yesterday,” a source claimed.

“The whole place is on fire, and troops have taken over nearby communities,” the source added.

Following the incident, residents fled in panic amid constant shootings that filled the air, creating a climate of fear and uncertainty.

“We are terrified,” said a resident who wished to remain anonymous.

“The sound of gunfire is still echoing in our ears. We don’t know what will happen next. We are worried.

“Ehime used to be a serene environment, and we don’t know what is happening,” he added.

However, as of the time of filing the report, the Nigerian Army and the Police are yet to comment on the development when contacted by DAILY POST.

This comes days after the house of Senator Frank Ibezim, an ex-lawmaker, who represented Okigwe senatorial zone in the 9th Assembly and the National Open University centre in Ezeoke Nsu Ehime Mbano Local Government, were set ablaze.

The incident drew condemnation from the Police Command in Imo State.

Why is the army so quick to kill people In the East? If it is the north they quickly call them 'repentant'. Anyways I do not expect justice from evil and wicked leaders
