Gunmen reportedly kill many in Anambra nightclub

Gunmen allegedly opened fire at individuals within a nightclub in Anambra, resulting in casualties.

The incident reportedly took place at Porsche Nightclub in Oba, Idemili North Local Government Area of Anambra State. 

While specifics about the attackers remain unknown as of Sunday night, a source named Chukwuemeka Ezefunamba mentioned that the gunmen attempted to abduct the club owner but were met with resistance by security personnel stationed at the club.

“As a result of the resistance, the gunmen started shooting sporadically, killing many people in the process.

“They also beheaded one of the security men who resisted them from taking the owner of the nightclub,” he said.

Spokesperson for Anambra State Police Command, DSP Tochukwu Ikenga, could not confirm the incident.

He promised to make an enquiry and get back to this newspaper.

Recall that another nightclub owner and popular witch doctor, Akwa Okuko, had been attacked months back in the same community.

He later confessed that he surrendered himself to avoid collateral damage that would have happened if he resisted. It was rumoured that he paid over N400 million to regain freedom.
