SaharaReporters reliably gathered that the hoodlums had stormed the Chairman’s home in Ekpaomaka late Tuesday night but they didn’t meet him at home.

The Chairman of the Ikwo Local Government Area of Ebonyi State, Elder Steve Orogwu, on Tuesday evening escaped death by the whiskers when unknown gunmen invaded his country home and killed three of his brothers.

Angered, the invading hoodlums turned their guns on his brothers and shot three dead with their neighbours whose identities were not yet clear as of the time of this report.The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, had through its spokesperson, Emma Powerful, announced Wednesday, May 18, and also May 26 as sit-at-home, but a faction of the group said it announced a three-day sit-at-home that began with the Monday’s sit-at-home.

It was gathered that the Tuesday’s sit-at-home was not successful in Abakaliki as movements were noticed. A heavy police presence and that of other security agents helped maintain normalcy, but the gunmen were believed to have assaulted other areas with less security. Efforts to get the reaction of the police in Ebonyi were unsuccessful as the Command's spokesperson, Loveth Odah, didn't take her calls or respond to text messages as of the time of filling the report.

You have weapons to enforce sit at home and kidnappers are ravaging your land. How are we sure you're not the kidnappers?

Now I blv the people are not Igbo but the evil people that already gained entrance in the south generally..this people have mission...better wake up....soon it will extend to yorubas and they will say yorubas are killing eachother....wake upppppl and let's protect ourselves...

Please you forgot to add 'unknown' to it 😂

Continue to rejoice while your region is being destroyed.

The south are killing each other in the name of agitating for Biafra the north are killing each other in the name of religion. When it happened in the north the southerners jubilate and start calling names, when it happened in the south the south start calling names..

Whoever kills must be killed simple.

It is obvious nigerian govt is so jealous of the progressive developments in the SE, n now they want to destroy all of them with their UGM tactics. Let me tell our people that bcoz of the hunger in the land, nigerian govt paid boys heavily to carry out all these attacks

IPOB has been threatening SE politicians for a while now. 😂 They see all SE politicians as enemy except few ones that supports them like aberibe. You know the problem with IPOB? Here now they will deny it but check their Facebook pages and see how they celebrate this 😂
