Published

At least, one person has been allegedly shot and killed by anti-riot police squad in Enugu.

The victim was allegedly killed as the police squad tried stopping protesters at Ogbete main market in Enugu on Wednesday, July 26.

Enugu residents were protesting against the closure of their shops by the state government for their compliance with last week Monday’s sit-at-home order that was issued by the Finland-based Biafra separatist agitator, Simon Ekpa.

An eyewitness said aggrieved Ogbete traders were protesting peacefully in the market over the sealing of their shops by the state government before police intercepted them and started shooting in the air.
