The Council Area has come under attack recently by unknown gunmen leading the state government to impose 6pm to 6am curfew in both Igboeze North and Igboeze South Local Government Areas.

Heavy security personnel have also been moved to the area to check the invasion and the battle has continued to linger.

Our source discosed that for fear, the State fire Service which has an office at Ogurute could not move in until security was provided.

By the time security was provided the fire had done much damage.

However, both fire trucks from Nsukka and Ogurute were mobilized and reportedly fought the fire most part of the night preventing it from spreading.
