Gunmen kill Police officer, 2 others in Imo

The Imo State Police Command confirmed on Monday that hoodlums have claimed the lives of one police officer and two civilians along the Owerri-Orlu road in Imo State.

Henry Okoye, the Imo State Police Public Relations Officer, conveyed the tragic incident to newsmen in Owerri, revealing that the motive behind the attack remains unclear at this time.

Eyewitness accounts present conflicting perspectives, with some suggesting that the perpetrators were enforcing a sit-at-home order on behalf of the IPOB, while others claim they were armed robbers specifically targeting point-of-sale (POS) operators.

A third account posits that the hoodlums, having completed a separate operation, encountered the police officers during their escape and opened fire. The Imo Police command deems this incident highly unfortunate, with Commissioner of Police Aboki Danjuma vehemently condemning the barbaric attack. In response, Danjuma has directed the command’s Tactical Team to collaborate with other security agencies to swiftly apprehend the assailants.
