Gunmen attack immigration office in Abia — hours after hit on police station

Gunmen have attacked the Nigeria immigration service building located along Ubakala axis of Enugu-Port Harcourt expressway, Abia state.

The attack was carried out on Saturday evening, a few hours after the state police criminal investigation department  in Umuahia was razed by gunmen.

It was gathered that the gunmen invaded the area and started shooting sporadically.

The development has sparked uneasiness among residents of the area, as many have deserted the area over the attack.

When Geoffrey Ogbonna, the state police command spokesperson was contacted, he said he heard about the attack and cannot confirm the details of the attack at the moment.

The latest incident is coming after a series of multiple attacks on police stations, and other government facilities in May.
