Gunmen Allegedly Attack Assemblies of God Church in Onitsha,

Gunmen on Sunday struck at the Assemblies of God Church on the Oguta road Onitsha, Anambra State killing one policeman and a civilian.



This is coming seven days after gunmen attacked St Philips Catholic Church, Ozubulu and killed no fewer than 13 persons and injured 27.


An eyewitness account told our correspondent that the gunmen had momentarily stopped at the Assemblies of God Church, but on sighting some policemen at the church, opened fire on them.


“When the firing became too hot, the policemen abandoned their patrol vehicle and ran away for safety.


“The gunmen moved to their patrol van and took a gun belonging to the policeman they killed.


“I saw two of the gunmen but I can’t say how many they are in number.


Another eyewitness said, “Gunmen on Okada (motorcycle) shot a policeman and collected his rifle. They also shot dead an Okada man while escaping, and the passenger he was carrying was injured. The policeman was the one armed among his colleagues; they were providing security while church service was going on at Assemblies of God Church, Oguta road Onitsha.


The Anambra State Commissioner of Police, Mr Garba Umar confirmed the incident to journalists.


He said it was not an attack on the church, adding “My men were on patrol near the church when they were attacked by some gunmen. It was not an attack on the church, in the real sense of it”.


The commissioner confirmed that the hoodlums took away a rifle belonging to the slain cop.

Two persons have been confirmed dead as gunmen attacked the Assemblies of God Church in Oguta Onitsha in Anambra.

    2. It's a shame that bokoharam can easily enter anambra, if it's true then it means someone in anambra is giving them Intel cos BH members can't enter unless they know their way around.

    5. Instead of you to be honest enough to know your biafran brothers are the ones doing these things so you can find a solution, you are there blaming others.

    6. The number one problem with biafra people is you never accept truth of the matter. You like blaming others.
      I have never seen a tribe that complains like you people. Yarabas are traitors, hawusa are evil.
      I keep saying it that you people are your own worst enemy.

    7. It is a pity you are not being truthful to yourself.. So to you this is Boko Haram attack instead of facing the truth and your brothers involved to order.

  15. I was going to say I doubt this story because nobody said anything today but crime rate is on the rise in Osha these days. Broad daylight snatching of phones and wallets etc. Only God can save His people. What hardship? A criminal is a criminal hardship or not.
