News has it that there is heavy gun shot in Ohafia Local Government Area of Abia State, it was reported that one person was allegedly wounded and properties including houses worth several millions of naira destroyed as soldiers of the 14 Brigade of the Nigerian Army, Ohafia, Abia State clashed with civilians in the area.

According to Sun News, a prominent member of Ekpe Cultural group from Amaekpu Ohafia had died and as tradition demanded, youths from the area organized the Ekpe festival for his burial.

In the course of the festival, it was gathered that a fracas ensued between the youths and some soldiers which resulted in a fight.

The soldiers were reported to have gone back to their nearby barracks and regrouped with a truck-load of soldiers and thereafter descended on the community.

In the ensuing commotion, one civilian was said to have been shot on the leg while properties worth several millions of naira were allegedly destroyed by the rampaging soldiers.

Uneasy calm has pervaded the community since after the incident as the soldiers were said to have retreated to their barracks after accomplishing their aim, leaving police to patrol the area to maintain peace.

Efforts made to get the reaction of authorities of the 14 Brigade have so far failed.

"Heavy shooting" and one person was reported injured. Someone in Abia should confirm the story jare.

Day of reckoning is coming.

Millitariocracy led by a dictatorial tyrant (unrepentant).

Hope there will be solution at the end

Millitariocracy led by an (unrepentant) dictatorial tyrant.

Military Rule Number One: Do not bleep with a soldier, even if he is lame...

Military Rule Number Two: You can never defeat the uniformed personnels in a fight...never! Go find out from Zakibiam!

And u said I shld be worried about police and soldier welfare.
Why can't one soldier stand one on one blow with a civilian instead of going to mobilize others. Cowards of the highest order.

Zaki Ibiam is a TIV community while Ohafia is an Igbo community.
Repeat Zaki in any Igbo community and see Buhari land in an international prison
For your information, Buhari's atrocities have being presented in ICC by foreign lawyers.

Nothing of such is happening in Ohafia. My in-law is a soldier and working there. I just called my elder sis to confirm.

I heard this yesterday ..

Youths of Amaekpu clashing with the armies.. Please, they should sort this madness ..

that place is very far from Aba

Sometimes I wonder if Buhari became the president through a bloody coup. Why is the military terrorizing innocent citizens? Someday these citizens might pick up arms to defend themselves.

Lienus....kwontinue to spread the hate,it will consume you and your people

Nonsense

If this news is anything to go by, our soldier must be cautioned against abuse of firearms. The law is law and that is why some persons enjoy the privilege of carrying guns around with the sole or primary aim of protecting Nigerian populace. And not otherwise. Unarmed civilians must be protected. Rule of law is for all and sundry, and not for a section against another.
