Gunmen everywhere across Nigeria
The Police in Ebonyi State have vowed to track down gunmen who attacked a mining site close to the state’s border with Benue and killed a Chinese national.
Police spokesman, SP Chris Anyanwu, stated on Monday at Abakaliki that the gunmen besieged the area and shot sporadically at workers and the security men on duty.
According to Anyanwu, the Chinese and a policeman sustained gunshot injuries in the process.
He said that the Chinese later died in hospital.
The mining site is located at Otam Nwogba village in Izzi local government area of Ebonyi.
“One of the policemen on duty sustained serious bullet injuries and is still receiving treatment,’’ Anyanwu said.
He urged members of the public to join hands in fishing out the terrorists by giving prompt and reliable information concerning their identities and or location to the police.
