BREAKING: Unknown gunmen set NDLEA office on fire in Abia

Unknown Gunmen in the early hours of Tuesday attacked the Amaekpu Ohafia Local Government Area office of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), setting the building ablaze.

The State Commandant, Mr Akingbade Bamidele, confirmed the attack to Daily Trust, saying no casualty was recorded.

This is coming few days after the Police formations and INEC office in the local government were attacked and burnt down by unknown gunmen.

There have been constant attacks on security operatives and public infrastructures in the South East and South-South in the past weeks with many security personnel killed and many police stations destroyed.

The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), a Biafran separatist organisation in Nigeria, is being blamed for the attacks.
