Some gunmen have invaded Obeagu community in the Ishielu Local Government Area of Ebonyi State, kidnapping undisclosed number of people on Thursday night.

He said, “There’s serious attack in our community this evening. Some gunmen we believe are Fulani herdsmen invaded Obeagu community again. They laid siege at Oluleri-Esha along Obeagu-Egegede road. They attacked our people who were returning from town and abducted many. We don’t know how many number of people yet.

“Our people have mobilised boys and community security and they are searching all the bushes. Two people were badly injured. “We alerted security agencies but we haven’t seen police or soldiers. As I speak to you I am in the bush with other boys in search of those abducted. Our neighbouring communities have been alerted about the development. Hopefully we will get them.”He said, “I thank God for mercies because I could have been one of the victims now. I learnt that immediately I passed the road, the hoodlums struck. Some people I passed on the road were victims.
