One Chukwuma Adazu has reportedly d*ed from gun sh*t injury, while two others are currently hospitalized, after navy officers allegedly opened fire on their vehicle in Enugu-Agidi area of Anambra State
The unfortunate incident occurred on Monday evening, August 9, 2021, at a check point along Nteje in Oyi LGA of the state.
According to one of the surviving victims, “I, my elder brother, Chukwunonso Nebolisa; and my cousin, Chukwuma Adazu, were returning from my site at Aguleri, when the Navy officers suddenly open fire on our vehicle.
My cousin d*ed on the spot, while I and my elder brother sustained b*llet injuries. The men on duty on realising we were unarmed, helped stop a vehicle that took us to the hospital.
We got a police report to that effect before my cousin was able to be deposited at the m*rtuary and the remaining two of us have been taking treatment at the Hospital for three days now.
Just at about 11pm last night, August 11, some men identified as police officers by the hospital security guards, came in a commando style and took my elder brother Chukwunonso Nebolisa, alongside my two younger brothers who were attending to us. Up until this morning, August 12, we are yet to know where the police took them to.

I was awake and so I had to hide before they came into the ward were I was receiving treatment, that was why I escaped.”
