Gunmen attack ex-IGP Coomasie, police guard shot dead
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

From Agaju Madugba, Katsina

Gunmen stormed the GRA residence of former Inspector-General of Police, Ibrahim Coomasie, on Saturday evening, killing a policeman on guard duty and injuring the other.

Sources told Sunday Sun that Coomasie who was in the house at the time of the attack about 7.30 p.m. was unharmed. It was learnt that on arriving at the residence, the gunmen fired sporadically at the guards who attempted to repel the attack. One of the sources said that, “they (attackers, believed to be armed robbers) arrived on a motorcycle immediately after the Muslim night prayers. 

“They tried to get in but were repelled before they shot the policemen on duty, killing one mobile policeman.”

When contacted, the Katsina police spokesman, DSP Gambo Isah, said he would give details of the incident later.

    If there is no share button copy it and paste but the most important thing is to share the information
    Radio Biafra, RADIO BIAFRA
    LONDON, Emeka Gift, Carol
    Munday & Alphonsus Uche
    Okafor-Mefor
    ALERT! ALERT!! ALERT!!!
    DIRECT RELIABLE SOURCE FROM
    THE ENEMIES’ CAMP JUST CALLED IN
    TO REVEAL CONCLUDED PLANS OF
    ATTACK BETWEEN NIGERIAN
    MILITARY AND RAPH UWAZURIKE
    BIM (BIAFRA INDEPENDENT
    MOVEMENT) MEMBERS.
    ACCORDING TO THE SPY WHO
    PLEADED ANONYMOUS SAID THAT
    UWAZURIKE AGREED TO CARRY
    OUT DUAL OFFENSIVE PLANS
    AGAINST BIAFRANS AND THE
    OUTCOME IS TARGETED AT
    CAUSING CONFLICTS BETWEEN
    SUPPORTERS FOR CALL OF
    REFERENDUM FROM NIGERIAN
    GOVERNMENT.
    THE PLAN WHICH WILL TAKE
    SERIAL STEPS TO ACHIEVE WILL
    START WITH ONITSHA MARKET
    AND CONTINUE TO ARIARIA MAIN
    MARKET BECAUSE OF THE
    DOMINANCE OF TRADERS AND
    THEIR CONTINUA CALL FOR
    REFERENDUM.
    Nigerian Military in collaboration
    with Uwazurike BIM members
    agreed to stage a disastrous gun
    battle around Onitsha Market.
    The soldiers will go after those
    BIM members towards the
    market, they will run into the
    market and hide in shops. In the
    quest to smoke them out, the
    soldiers will set up shops on fire.
    The fire will be allowed to
    escalate to burn down the
    majority of shops in the market.
    In turn, the military will claim that
    the market was set on fire by
    Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB
    members.
    AT THIS POINT, THE QUESTION TO
    BOYCOTT ANAMBRA ELECTION
    WILL BE DEFEATED BECAUSE SHOP
    OWNERS (BURNT SHOPS OWNERS)
    WILL BE EMBRACED BY STATE
    GOVERNMENT THEREBY LURING
    THEM AND FRIENDS TO SNUB IPOB
    CALL FOR REFERENDUM AND
    ELECTION BOYCOTT TO VOTE FOR
    THEM.
    THIS STYLISED PLAN IS MASSIVE
    AND TARGETING!
    WE EMPLOY OUR PEOPLE TO BE
    VIGILANT AND DISCLOSE ANY
    SUSPICIOUS MOVE BY NIGERIAN
    GOVERNMENT: LOCAL, STATE AND
    FEDERAL TO DISCONNECT US FROM
    OUR CALL FOR REFERENDUM AND
    TOTAL ELECTION BOYCOTT ACROSS
    BIAFRA LAND.
