According to reports, some gunmen shot and killed a few people in an Anambra nightclub.

 

It was learned that the incident happened at Porsche Nightclub in Oba, Idemili North Local Government Area, Anambra State.

 

The identity of the attackers remains unknown, but according to Chukwuemeka Ezefunamba, a source, the gunmen attempted to abduct the club’s owner but were resisted by security personnel stationed there.

“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.
