Soldiers have burned houses and cars in Imo State.
Newsonline reports that Nigerian Soldiers have reportedly burnt down houses, shops, cars and a hotel in Awo Mma Mma, Oru East LGA after Unknown Gunmen killed a military officer on Monday.
It was gathered that the Soldiers were greatly annoyed over the killing of their colleague.
The incident which happened at Ishieke junction in the area has caused panic in the community.
Several have fled the community over the chaos. An Eyewitness told Punch; “some hoodlums attacked some soldiers at Ishieke junction in Awo Mmamma and killed one of them.
They zoomed off towards Ihiala in Anambra State. Later soldiers invaded the area and caused havoc in the area by setting a hotel, cars, houses and stalls on fire.”
Efforts to reach the police spokesperson for the state command, Micheal Abattam, for a statement on the matter proved abortive.
