. IPOB Leader, Nnamdi Kanu,
Hoodlums, suspected to be members of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), on Monday launched an attack on the Central Police Station in Abakaliki.
The station, located along the Abakaliki-Enugu Highway and close to the International market, was set ablaze by the hoodlums.
They also destroyed and set ablaze cars, tricycles and motorcycles in the compound.
It would be recalled that IPOB Leader, Nnamdi Kanu, had called on his members to embark on a clean up exercise/protest around major cities in the southeast and south south geo political zones.
The exercise was peaceful in Ikwo local government area, where security agencies allowed them to move around without any confrontation.
But in Abakaliki, the proscribed group members, who clearly identified themselves as members of the group, launched an attack on the Police station around 3pm.
They claimed that some of their members were killed by the Police during last week’s disturbances in front of the station.
