50 gunmen attack Enugu government house

According to reports, 50 gunmen who arrived in 7 buses attempted to attack Enugu State Government House in the early hours of yesterday Saturday March 8th but didn't succeed as security personnel attached to the Government House engaged them in a shoot out, preventing them from gaining entry.

One gunman was killed and three others arrested in the shootout that lasted till 4:30am but no security personnel was killed or injured, this is according to the Chief Press Secretary to Governor Sullivan Chime, Mr. Chukwudi Achife, who confirmed the incident.
“They carried flags with different inscriptions and insignia belonging to some secret cults. They told the security men to open the gate claiming that they were at the government house on a protest. Sensing that there was danger, the security operatives rushed out only to see many of them with machetes, giving orders to their members to move into the government house."
The arrested gunmen have been handed over to the Enugu State Police Command

How I wish the viable security operatives available to the government can also be available to the poor masses that voted them in and are funding them with their hard earned tax and resources......#CheezyJayne

Awesome!!!!!! #Dancingmynativedance#. A country dat has rendered its youths jobless is asking for serious trouble and Nigeria is one of such. I am glad that our youths have woken up from der slumber albeit ill-equiped. This is what dat crazy-ass islamic sect(boko haram) should be doing. Instead of taking out a harmless group of people, they should face Aso rock and kill all dem thieving politicians.
This ass hole thinks we will be sorry for him, to hell with you and ur cohorts already. RIP to the fallen heroes.
Anyone who insults me for speaking my mind, thunder will strike dead. #continues scratching my armpit#

Thank God I did not go for my early morning work-out on that fateful day.I normally starts from 5:00 am,and end by 8:30am,at Okpara Square,which is adjacent to one of the entrances of the government house.Though the numbers might seem a bit exaggerated,this hoodlums mistook Chime's meekness for cowardice.

Is it not better they succeed in gaining entrance into the government house to deal with these men that has been a menace 2 our land instead of gaining entrance into secondary school and killing young girls?

Igor said...

Abeg follow me tell dis Naija babe the truth.As far as I am concerned, Sullivan remains the best performing governor in Nigeria,when you compare what he gets,as monthly allocation with other state governors.The fact that he does not advertise his achievements on our dailies,or pay journalists to sing his praises,is why little is known about his achievements.

If they were actually Protesters. Did they obtain clearance from the Police. Yet the timing was wrong. Protests is normally done in the morning. When did they arrive GH. We were told the shootout lasted till 4. 30am. Were they really wt Matchets. What were the Matchets Meant for. Both engaged each in gun battle. Security killed one and arrested 3 and non ofl the 50 vehicles were seized. Non of the Security Officers was injured nor Killed. May be the gun men used rubber bullets as it cannot kill nor injure. Pls I still want to hear the truth of this matter. Youths pls don't allow evil men to use you achieve their aim. You are precious to this Nation

Anonymous 1:13 pm; so u ar d mkpi dat dared attack me for voicing my mind.......... Are you Chime's daughter? Why ar u taking my comment personal? Why all d curses? See d way u insult my father and mother because of a comment I made. If my parents were to stand before you will you insult dem dat way? May all the curses go back to you in a million folds, Amen! May the gutter from which you spat out these curses bring your downfall. May the spirit of my dad who died on the 4th of January dis year deal with you ruthlessly and force favour to flee from you. For mentioning my innocent dead father, may you die an untimely death and may the vultures eat up your carcass such that you won't even be honoured with a decent burial. Ill mannered rotten child. Have d guts to attach a name to your next comment so dat I can give ur name to d witches and wizards in my village. By d time dey are done with you, you will learn to apply wisdom when u speak. Dat of course will be in your next life. Iti nta nti tiri utala okpo.

Chime has been missing in action with reports of trouble at home. He's the only Igbo governor that I like (I can't love a man and I'm not gay) from a distance. I can't judge his work in Enugu. I haven't been there in almost a decade. Wish him well.

Ijeoma Monica Njoku said...

*In almost a decade*. He's looking older but healthier. Is this a current pix of him?
