Breaking: Gunmen strike again, kill two policemen, set vehicle ablaze in Anambra

UNKNOWN gunmen have allegedly attacked a police checkpoint at the Obosi Interchange along the Onitsha-Owerri road in Anambra State, killing two policemen and burning one patrol vehicle.

An eye witness said about 10 policemen were at the checkpoint at the time of the incident.

According to the eye witness, there was pandemonium during the incident, forcing the policemen to vacate the scene, thereby clearing the checkpoint immediately.

It was also gathered that before the shooting incident, traffic gridlock in the area was almost stretching to about two kilometers.

The eye witness said: “The traffic almost got to Upper Iweka Junction. At a point, it became a no movement situation on both lanes of the road.

“I was in the traffic when we suddenly heard gunshots and before you knew it, everybody, including the policemen, started running. They shot two policemen dead and burnt their vehicle.

“The place was brutal yesterday . I think their targets were the policemen who mounted a checkpoint, which caused a horrific traffic situation on both lanes, made worse by the ongoing road construction in the area”.

The state Police Public Relations Officer, PPRO, Ikenga Tochukwu, who confirmed the incident said two policemen were killed.

“What happened along the Obosi Idemili flyover is an example of the price we pay as police officers in service to the nation and humanity.

“Three of the armed men were demobilized, while two police personnel paid the supreme price. The police also recovered the rifles of the slain officers. A Lexus SUV, one of the operational vehicles of the armed hoodlums was also recovered. The operation is still ongoing. Further details shall be communicated.

“The Anambra State Police Command is firm and the personnel are more motivated in providing security services until the current security concern is reduced to the barest minimum and overcome,” Ikenga said.

It is very easy to feed a monster to grow but when it has come of an age, it's extremely difficult to tame same.

Police is a curse to Nigerian

When they heard the gunshots everyone started running including the policemen
Can someone please tell Nigerian police that they are paid to protect lives and properties not to run like Bolt

Message to those who are coming to the village for festive season to stay clear.

Illiterates have taken over SE.. What a pity

They heard gunshot unaware which means who ever you are, your liver must first cut.

Police officers are also human beings

They are still feeding the monsters the likes of Fadiga and gidigiddy know as Ungun Known Men

By the time it fully grow, the monster in the east will be mor bloody than the monsters in the North East and North West

I will be in Lagos watching the destruction of Igbo land on TV

If this attack is in the South West or South East, I will understand. But, with the situations of things in Biafla land, the policemen should not be caught unaware on their turf

God can't come down to stop the unrest in SE.

Not justifying the killings in anyway,but that artificial traffic caused by policemen that Mount road blocks, extorting motorists,can be nerve-racking atimes.
When you unfortunately now mount it in armed men with pent up fury and probably on drugs,you are exposing yourself to harm.

as police men they are trained to react quickly and strategically engage with the criminals and if overmatched should call for reinforcements.
By running they are just civilians with guns to harass and assault people nothing else

We shouldn't be carried away or wreckless about the situation in SE.
Forget about those small boys who provoked others. We do not have to be like them.

I am not expecting to be vindicated about the insecurity in SE cos that's actually a bad wish.

We hope and pray they listen to the voice of reasoning so that they can reduce and stop the self inflicted pain

Simple instruction... “Leave our roads for us”, them no go hear.

They will be causing excruciating pain to road users by causing impassable gridlock and taking bribe.

They should transfer all the idiots mounting checkpoints in the Southeast to Abuja-Kaduna highway. That’s where their services are most needed.
