The armed men this morning attacked people going about their businesses in Isinweke, Ihitte Uboma LGA of Imo state. Several vehicles were burnt down including shuttle buses, private cars, and motorcycles, leaving the community devastated. Also, one occupant of the vehicle was shot by the gunmen and was left bleeding at a nearby shop.

This incident is the latest, in a series of destruction unleashed in the Southeast by gunmen linked to separatist Simon Ekpa.

Simon Ekpa has however come under heavy criticism in recent times for systematically coordinating violence against people of the Southeast.
