Gunmen suspected to be members of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) have set ablaze the offices of the Department of State Service (DSS) and the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) in Nnewi, Anambra State, leaving many people dead in the process.
Although identities of the victims have not been known, it was gathered that the casualties might have been hit by stray bullets during firing by the gunmen.
An eyewitness said the suspected IPOB members drove from Owerri Road in the industrial town in four Sports Utility Vehicles (SUVs) and stopped at Emecourt Road Junction where they fired gunshots, which made those in the vicinity to scamper for safety before they headed to the nearby DSS and FRSC offices and set them ablaze.
