IPOB members
At least five people have been killed in Anara, Isiala Mbano Local Government Area of Imo State.
Gunmen were said to have attacked the community on Tuesday night.
A resident simply identified as Damian told our correspondent that many people could not sleep in the community as sounds of gunshot rend the air for a while.
He said, “In fact throughout the night, we had our hearts in our mouth as sporadic gunshots, not heard before, took over our environment. As I am talking to you now, not even a chicken is outside.”
