A Chinese expatriate was also slain by gunmen in neighbouring Ebonyi State after disarming his police bodyguards at a mining location in the Iboko, Izzi local government of Ebonyi State.

According to reports, the gunmen who assaulted the Inyi police station chanted, “no election, Police in Biafra land,” while they committed their heinous crime.

Two young men’s dead were found by the station’s perimeter fence and a burning police station was also visible in a viral video of the incident that went viral yesterday afternoon.

The two victims were identified as cops by some people heard in the background of the film, although another person claimed he could only make out one of them as a station-affiliated policeman.
