Two persons have been killed in Nnewi, Anambra State today Monday, August 9, as the sit-at-home order by the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) turned violent.
Residents of the community told the Nation that they woke up to see the two lifeless bodies at Izuchukwu junction. Three buses were reportedly set ablaze in the industrial city of the state while a Toyota Camry vehicle was seen abandoned along the street with the driver said to have fled.https://googleads.g.doubleclick.net/pagead/ads?gdpr=0&us_privacy=1—&client=ca-pub-2427099653703778&output=html&h=300&adk=2141876619&adf=667904977&pi=t.aa~a.1834861711~i.11~rp.4&w=360&lmt=1628515506&num_ads=1&rafmt=1&armr=3&sem=mc&pwprc=4779063894&psa=1&ad_type=text_image&format=360×300&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.lindaikejisblog.com%2F2021%2F8%2Fipob-sit-at-home-order-two-feared-killed-and-several-cars-destroyed-in-nnewi-photos.html&flash=0&fwr=1&pra=3&rh=275&rw=330&rpe=1&resp_fmts=3&sfro=1&wgl=1&fa=27&adsid=ChAI8KTDiAYQtb6W7en7xrYtEjkAgfdKmCM3jWJwfsJImfm5_NzPfnZM1GevPGao3t6aZ49pQMtKdS4Em3pY76PzwpqQQTAaT-UVex0&uach=WyJBbmRyb2lkIiwiOSIsIiIsIkluZmluaXggWDY1MEIiLCI5Mi4wLjQ1MTUuMTE1IixbXSxudWxsLG51bGwsbnVsbF0.&tt_state=W3siaXNzdWVyT3JpZ2luIjoiaHR0cHM6Ly9hdHRlc3RhdGlvbi5hbmRyb2lkLmNvbSIsInN0YXRlIjo3fV0.&dt=1628515506171&bpp=20&bdt=6396&idt=-M&shv=r20210803&mjsv=m202108060101&ptt=9&saldr=aa&abxe=1&cookie=ID%3D6f62d75ac2f0c0c6-2251d019a8c80035%3AT%3D1622665487%3ART%3D1622665487%3AS%3DALNI_MZ85Ep3SvTaGfc8Juk8Onrd6Hwi6g&prev_fmts=0x0%2C360x300&nras=3&correlator=5896709926034&frm=20&pv=1&ga_vid=1187515804.1622665486&ga_sid=1628515503&ga_hid=73503723&ga_fc=0&u_tz=60&u_his=9&u_java=0&u_h=800&u_w=360&u_ah=800&u_aw=360&u_cd=24&u_nplug=0&u_nmime=0&adx=0&ady=1374&biw=360&bih=664&scr_x=0&scr_y=499&eid=20211866%2C31062178%2C21067496&oid=3&psts=AGkb-H8c6KI8Af3SA7F4R4Ak1dDlBYQfoVChQmFwu3JbS7dq4Y_Og9uVJIiJ2w7gbwENjGjdJE48fPlD&pvsid=2591985750287694&pem=777&ref=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.lindaikejisblog.com%2F&eae=0&fc=1408&brdim=0%2C0%2C0%2C0%2C360%2C0%2C360%2C664%2C360%2C664&vis=1&rsz=%7C%7Cs%7C&abl=NS&fu=1152&bc=31&ifi=3&uci=a!3&btvi=1&fsb=1&xpc=qdXdQHeX7s&p=https%3A//www.lindaikejisblog.com&dtd=446
