The Senator representing the Abia Central district, Senator Theodore Orji, has condemned in very strong terms, “the wanton destruction” of Abayi Police Station, in Osisioma Ngwa Local Government Area of Abia State.
The station was on the wee hours of Tuesday, invaded by yet to be identified gunmen who reportedly killed one of the policemen on duty before setting the station on fire.
Consequently, the state government imposed a ban on tricycle and motorcycle operation between 7 pm and 7 am after placing an N1 million bounty on the attackers.
