Armed hoodlums suspected to be members of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) and its militia arm, the Eastern Security Network (ESN), attacked a vigilante office in Amesi, Aguata LGA, Anambra State, in the early hours of April 25, 2025.
The attack, which occurred at about 0220hrs, targeted the office of the sector commander of the Agunechenba Vigilantes.
According to the commander, the hoodlums set fire to four patrol vehicles and two motorcycles belonging to the vigilantes before fleeing the scene.
Upon receiving the report, a Joint Task Force (JTF) mobilized to the area, but by the time they arrived, the assailants had already escaped.
A comprehensive search of the surrounding bushes is underway, with police-led JTF units working to apprehend the suspects.
