Gunmen suspected to be cultists on Monday attacked and burnt a divisional police station in the Essien Udim Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom State
The incident occurred barely one week after some hoodlums in the same local government attacked members of the Quick Response Squad at the Ikpe Annang Junction and burnt an inspector of police inside a police van.
Sources told our correspondent in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State, that the hoodlums stormed the police station in the early hours of Monday and set it ablaze, as well as unserviceable vehicles and motorcycles at the station.
