Gunmen, in the early hours of Friday, attacked the Ogbaru local government area headquarters at Atani.
Reasons for the attack have not been established, but sources in the area said there were gunshots inside the local government headquarters, which sent panic to the entire area and forcing people to remain indoors.
However, the state Police command said the attack was resisted. The state Police Public Relations Officer, PPRO, SP Tochukwu Ikenga, in a statement said: “The security operatives’ gallantry resisted the gunmen. Some local government properties were destroyed, some buildings were affected and no life was lost as joint security operation is ongoing.” (Vanguard)
