Unknown gunmen have beheaded the gateman member of the Imo House of Assembly member representing Orsu state constituency, Hon Ekene Nnodumele.
The attack took place at the hometown of the lawmaker, in Orsu local government area at about 02:15 am, Wednesday.
Apart from the gate man whose head was cut off by the “unknown gunmen” the house of Nodumele was burnt and hundreds of motorcycles set ablaze.
Confirming Nodumele, said that, “My house was burnt, motorcycles burnt and my gate man beheaded. For now, I don’t know the extent of the other damages. The details will come later.”
Also, the house of the immediate past Attorney General, of Imo state, Cyprain Akaolisa, also was said to have been burnt by the rampaging “unknown gunmen.”
Reports say that hoodlums operating as “unknown gunmen ” have relocated to the rural areas of Imo state.
The reason is as a result of the said “water tight ” security strategies applied in Owerri metropolis by the special security forces as a result of which for over a week now there has been calmness in the Owerri capital.
It would be recalled that before the Orsu attacks, one of such latest rural attack was said to have happened at about 08:45 am last Sunday in front of St Philips Anglican church, Ohii, in Owerri West local government area, where a woman whose name was given as Mrs lkenna Onwusoroaka, was said to have been kidnapped on her way home from the church.
