The police in Enugu state say they have raided the camp of the proscribed IPOB/ESN in Agu-Ibeje forest, Enugu-Ezike, Igbo-Eze North Local Government Area in Enugu State.

Mr Ndukwe said the raid was in pursuance of the crime-fighting strategies devised by the state’s Commissioner of Police, Abubakar Lawal.

He said the hoodlums, on sighting the police operatives, engaged them in a gun duel, which led to the neutralisation of one of them.

The police spokesman said that several others escaped with varying degrees of fatal gunshot wounds, due to the superior firepower of the operatives.

“The operation led to the discovery and exhumation, from a shallow grave in the camp, of the corpse of their victim identified as Johnson Okpanachi, a Police Officer serving in Igbo-Eze North Police Division.
