Enugu; IPOB Stay at Home Continues As Hoodlums Kill Man, Set Bus on Fire

By Uche Mbah

Violent attacks and fear of the unknown have forced people in the Eastern States to continue to stay at home even after IPOB and other affiliated groups have given counter orders calling off the sit at home.

In Enugu State, on Monday September 27, a young man was publicly shot inside his car and dragged down. When the hoodlums saw that he was not dead, he was shot again at close range.

In another incident, a bus carrying foodstuffs was set ablaze. Both tragic incidents are  believed to have  been carried out by those enforcing the sit-at-home order.

It is not clear whose order they claim to be obeying.

Since the sit-at-home order by IPOB started, more than four buses plus a number of tricycles and motorcycles  have been burnt by sit-at- home enforcers.

The bus was said to be coming from the North via the Nsukka gateway when they were ambushed by the hoodlums who set the bus and its contents ablaze.

There were no casualties, but the Enugu fire service rushed to the scene to put out the fire.
