Enugu Police Investigate Shooting at NDC Secretariat
The Enugu State Police Command has initiated an investigation into an alleged shooting that occurred outside the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) secretariat in Enugu. The incident took place on Saturday when unidentified armed hoodlums reportedly opened fire, resulting in one man sustaining a gunshot injury while repairing a vehicle.
The victim was promptly taken to a hospital and is currently in stable condition. Enugu State Commissioner of Police, Mamman Bitrus Giwa, has directed the State Criminal Investigation Department (SCID) to thoroughly investigate the incident and apprehend those responsible.
Police operatives responded quickly to the distress call and restored normalcy at the scene. Additionally, on the same day, joint police and military operatives dispersed suspected NDC members at the entrance of Akanu Ibiam International Airport due to a disagreement over access to the airport.
Giwa urged political parties to avoid violence and notify police of planned activities to ensure adequate security arrangements.
