Villagers flee as unknown gunmen return, kill alleged informant in Abia

Unknown gunmen have returned to Umuchima village in Isiala Ngwa North LGA of Abia State and killed a male indigene of the community who was alleged to have provided information to the Army about their existence in the community.

The Nigerian Army had on Tuesday, announced that the troops of Joint Task Force, South East Operation, codenamed Operation Udo Ka destroyed a camp in Umuchima.

Following the killing of the alleged informant, some natives of the affected village fled their homes in fear and relocated to nearby villages, promising to return as soon as the dust settled.

The fleeing villagers who picked a few of their important property, said they didn’t want to become victims of circumstances.

One of them told our correspondent that “the fear is real. They just stormed the village in a commando-like style and killed a native who they accused of being an informant.”

DAILY POST reported a few days ago that personnel of the Nigerian Army’s 14 Brigade, Ohafia, and unidentified gunmen clashed in Umuchima village.https://dailypost.ng/2024/11/25/soldiers-clash-with-unknown-gunmen-in-abia-community/

Over 15 Hilux vehicles and armored personnel carriers arrived at the village around 6 a.m, targeting suspected gunmen.

The gunmen were reportedly camped near a river that marks the boundary between Abia and the Mbaise axis of Imo State.

This came amid vow by the Abia State Government and the security agencies to flush out the gunmen terrorising the state.

The gunmen had since they began their onslaught killed many security operatives.
