Security forces in Anambra State are said to have stormed nine camps in the Anambra South Senatorial District belonging to ‘unknown gunmen.’

The combined task team on security in the state also searched nine shrines frequented by hoodlums for oath-taking.

Natives who functioned as hoodlum informants were also detained and made valuable statements, according to a police source.

Aguluezechukwu in Aguata Local Government Area, Ebenato community in Nnewi South LGA, Ezinifite village in Nnewi South LGA, and Ichi in Ekwusigo LGA were among the places searched by the task team.

In the Nnewi South and Ihiala LGAs, other locations include sections of Osumoghu, Lilu, and certain parts of Ukpor.

The source said most native doctors had fled from their homes because some of their colleagues who were arrested had been providing names of those involved in killings and kidnappings in the state.

The Anambra Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Tochukwu Ikenga, said it was too early to begin to count the successes in the war against terror in the state.
