6 soldiers, unknown gunmen feared dead in Abia -

Six soldiers and a yet undisclosed number of gunmen are feared dead in Ohafia, Ohafia council area of Abia state in the early hours of Saturday as the military battled gunmen in the area.

Vanguard gathered that on Thursday, at about 5pm, unknown gunmen had stormed the Ebem motor park, shot sporadically in the air and fled to the Amangwu area of Ohafia.

When soldiers of the 14 Brigade of the Nigeria Army got wind of the incident, they went in search of the hoodlums in the community.

However, the soldiers who could not arrest any of the hoodlums, reinforced and returned to Amangwu community.

Sources told Vanguard that in their second visit, the unknown gunmen engaged the soldiers in a gun battle which reportedly lasted for several hours.

In the gun duel, unconfirmed reports have it that six soldiers were killed, while an undisclosed number of the unknown gunmen were also shot dead.

The operation caused the natives of Amangwu to flee from their homes as many of them slept in the bush till the next morning when the soldiers returned to their barracks at about 8.45 am.

A native of Amangwu Ohafia, who simply gave his name as Udo, and resides in Umuahia, told Vanguard that one of his relatives called him on phone at about 4.30 am and told him he was calling from inside the bush where they had gone to take refuge.

Residents of Elu, Ebem, and other adjoining villages in Ohafia, are reportedly living in fear.

Effort to contact the Army spokesman, 14 Brigade, Ohafia, Capt. Iliya Dauda, was unsuccessful as at press time.

However, a senior military officer in the state confirmed the incident, adding that over ten gunmen were killed in the crossfire.

This is really a bad news for you and I hope you cry us a river.

Buhari is a Fulani Muslim terrorist.

There is nothing like unknown gunmen. These are politically sponsored criminals. DSS should check their bank accounts and trace who is sponsoring these fools.

Disintegration of Nigeria this contraps is inevitable !

Can the government and other stakeholders encourage referendum already? It's constitutional. This bloodshed in the country is way too much.

We're not shock.

It'll be surprising to hear those who hail UNMEN KNOWN GUN now to cry foul and claim innocence of them whenever Army slaughter them in numbers


All hail Nnamdi Kanu

When are we going to know the unknown gun men?

I am igbo but I totally condemn this act!!!!

Those police in ojota assaulting peaceful protesters will not come and use this same energy here

IPOB/UGM on the beat


Development is encouraging.

It will only take less than 10 months for that region to become a lawless state.

The men carrying guns will have nothing to do when peace comes. They will live by that same guns

Nawaoo

u

IPOB are Terrorists. They will will soon hear from military in the language they Understand

The mystery of the so-called Army has been demystified by both Boko Haram and the Eastern version of the Unknown Gunmen.

At this stage, it appears the Nigerian Army only specializes in harassing and killing unarmed citizens (like Obigbo and Odi massacre). The so-called language you people gloat over, it seems IPOB understands it better than the zoo military.

I repeat you can't get Biafra with violence.

wow

Stay safe

Ok

can Nigerian army act swiftly if it were herdsmen?

See how they swiftly respond when it is unknown men gun. But if it is Fulani herdsmen,they would pretend not to know and even protect them while helping them to escape. The one that happened when igboho and his boys wanted to catch the herdsmen in the forest is an example
