Gunmen suspected to be hired assassins on Friday night, allegedly invaded the country home of former Imo State governor, Rochas Okorocha, in Ogboko, Ideato South Council Area of Imo State barely a few hours after his rumoured arrest by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
According to reports, the ex-governor and his family members were said not to be in the mansion when the gunmen broke; it was only some of his security details that were around at the moment.
Meanwhile, in another news, Mr Ene Okon, the commissioner of police for Abia State who was transferred from Ebonyi State in February shortly before the 2019 general polls, has stated that he and his command does not know anything called “Biafra”.
This is even as he said Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, will be arrested once he steps into the State.
CP Okon, stated this in an interview with TheSun; According to him, “IPOB is an illegal organization; it has been declared as a terrorist organization”.
“I can never, never allow any illegal organization in the state and anybody that belongs to such organization and carrying out any illegal activity should be treated as a terrorist and you know how terrorists are treated; I have said it and I’m repeating it”, Mr. Okon declared.
