The attack came less than 24 hours after the convoy of a former governor of Imo State, Ikedi Ohakim, was bombed and four police orderlies killed.

The Daily Trust reported that the attackers threw explosives at the police station. However, no policeman was said to be on duty during the attack.

The incident was said to have caused apprehension in the community as residents remained indoors throughout the day.

The newspaper recalled that the same police station was in June 2021 vandalized after two courts beside it were burnt.

Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO) in the state, CSP Mike Abattam, could not be reached for his reaction as of press time.
