Gunmen have attacked the Okigwe South Police Area Command headquarters in Orieagu, Ehime Mbano local government area of Imo State.

It was gathered that no fewer than six policemen, who attempted to repell the assailants, were feared dead.

Witnessed said the incident occurred around 7.00pm just less than two days after hoodlums attacked the residence of Governor Hope Uzodimma in his Omuma Community in Oru East Local Government Area.

The bandits were also alleged to have released suspects in custody in the police facility and made away with police weapons.

The incident, it was gathered, caused serious panic in the area with villagers running to hide inside bushes.

When contacted, Imo state police command spokesperson, Mr. Orlando Ikeokwu, confirmed the attack.
