Five Officers Feared Dead As Gunmen Attack Enugu Police Station by Emmastan291: 11:19am On May 25, 2021
Gunmen in the early hours of Tuesday attacked Iwollo Police Division in Ezeagu Local Government Area of Enugu State and razed the station.

The Commissioner of Police in Enugu State, Mr Mohammed Aliyu, who confirmed the attack to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) said he was already on ground to ascertain the level of destruction and casualties.

“More information will be pushed out to the public as soon as we conclude our preliminary investigation,’’ he said.

However, an eyewitness, who spoke on condition of anonymity, told NAN that the hoodlums attacked the division in their large numbers in the wee hours of the day.

The eyewitness said that the attack threw the entire Iwollo community into fear and panic throughout the night.

“They succeeded in completely razing down the buildings in the divisional station.

“The hoodlums might have also killed probably five gallant police personnel that confronted them when they attacked’’.


Recall that on April 21, unknown gunmen shot two police operatives dead during an attack on Adani Police Station in Uzo-Uwani Local Government Area of Enugu State.

The station was also set ablaze completely at about 2:30 am.

Policemen are now endangered species in the East. So bad that this is happening to them but they committed a lot of evils in the past especially in the East and that is why people don't pity them. May their souls rest in peace.
