Blood Stains As Gunmen Bomb Ihiala Divisional Police Station In Anambra
Hell was let loose between 12 midnight and 1am in the early hours of Wednesday 28th December, 2022 as daredevil gunmen invaded Ihiala Divisional Police Station bombing the Police Division and Area Command with rocket launchers and other missiles.
Reports say damages done to the Police Division and the Area Command were indescribable and unquantifiable as bombs exploded in the compound while people who lived around the ill-fated police station scampered for safety in the dead of the night.
