Suspected members of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) and the Eastern Security Network (ESN), have reportedly set ablaze the country home of the President-General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Professor George Obiozor, at Awo-Omanma in the Oru East Local Government Area of Imo State in the early hours of Saturday.

The attackers according to PUNCH quoting an eyewitness, arrived at Prof Obiozor’s home in vehicles and threw explosive devices at the house.

It was learnt that the Igbo leader was not at home when his house was attacked.

“The country home of Prof George Obiozor was burnt. The CCTV cameras captured the attack. Thank God Prof was not at home when they came,” the source said.

Obiozor had yet to respond to an inquiry concerning the attack but one of the leaders of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, who prefers anonymity, said that he had called Obiozor to commiserate with him on the incident.

He called on the police to fish out those who carried out this arson.

The police spokesperson in the state, Micheal Abattam, had yet to respond to an inquiry concerning the attack on Obiozor’s country home.

The attack on Obiozor’s country home came the same night the Umuguma Divisional Police Headquarters in the Owerri West Local Government Area (LGA) of the state was burnt with two police constabularies killed and cars burnt.
