Hoodlums have attacked Amichi Divisional Police Headquarters in Nnewi South LGA and others in Anambra State.

The attack came barely 24 hours after the administrative headquarters of Nnewi South LGA was attacked leaving two people dead.

Amichi and the other police stations were still undergoing reconstruction as they were among the stations attacked during the 2020 EndSARS protest.

The spokesman, Anambra State Police Command, DSP Toochukwu Ikenga, confirmed the incident.

He said there was no casualty, adding that a team of police personnel had been drafted to the area to ensure calm.

According to him, the hoodlums did not only attack Amaechi police but also attacked Osumoghu and Ezenifite police stations.

According to him, after the EndSARS saga all the policemen in police stations were moved to the area command and there were no policemen there.

“After the EndSARS incident, the communities started reconstruction of those stations and they have not finished them.

“By the time of attack, there were no policemen there. I wondered why somebody would attack them,” he said. 

He said normalcy had been restored and urged residents in the area with useful information to make them available to the police to enable the command to deal with those responsible for the insecurity in the area.
