Gunmen in the early hours of Saturday invaded the country home of Imo State Governor, Hope Uzodinma in Omuma, before setting his house ablaze.

“However, vigilant security operatives attached to the Governor’s house successfully repelled the attack and consequently minimised the damage they had planned to unleash.

“In the crossfire that ensued a few casualties were recorded. Preliminary investigation suggests that the foiled attack may have been politically sponsored.”

During the attack, part of the building was set ablaze while several vehicles were also torched by hoodlums.
