A startling cache of bullets have been evacuated from the earth in Agulu, Anaocha Local Government Area of Anambra State in Nigeria’s south-east region.

The bullets were discovered while the foundation of a building project for a community member was being dug.

The Anambra State Commissioner of Police, Mr Sam Okaula, said several buckets were unearthed and that there were still some left which were yet to be brought to the surface.

The bullets appear to have been underground for years

Mr Okaula told reporters that investigation had commenced to determine who buried the arms and the reason behind it.

After the discovery, disquiet crept into Agulu, with villages worried about their safety.

At the scene of the discovery, while a worker evacuates the bullets, the State Commissioner of Police said investigation would also focus on when the bullets were acquired and who bought and buried the arms.

Mr Okaula urged residents to provide relevant information that would aid investigation, while also assuring them of the commitment of the police to battling criminality.

He said that the a high powered surveillance would be put in the area to ensure the police got to the root of the matter.

Meanwhile members of the community have said they were in the dark as to who purchased and buried them.

The person who buried it must be Dead else I don't see why the person would ve allowed foundation of a building sited on his armory without taking it out..

These Useless police should allow the man who intends to build his house finish what he started.

Looks like civil war bullets. They bullets are quite corroded.

This was buried during the civil war.

The bullets are corroded, it must have been there since civil war.

Civil war bullets....

those bullet belong to an automatic rifle presumably the AK47... and as such it isnt the civil war bullets... someone bought them had no need for them again then buried them.... i think it was bought during election period by politicians.. or the biafra agitators...
metal will always corrode if buried without proper care but bullets take very long to corrode... even at that i suspect its just dirt (soil stains) on the bullets... apply water and they are good for use...

AskBURATAI

Those are not civil war bullets... They are corroded because of the soil moisture and whatever may be going on down there.

If they were civil war bullets, they wouldn't be an issue. I'm pulling up resources to prove these came after the civil war.

They just unearthed proof of an averted 'civil war'

I'll be back.

Suddenly everybody is an expert...Civil war ko civil war ni
