Thursday, 17th June 2021: Suspected hoodlums who reportedly disguised themselves as local vigilante groups in the early hours of Wednesday stormed the private residence of the immediate past Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice, Imo State, Chief Cyprian Akaolisa and set the building ablaze.

CEOAFRICA gathered that the multi-million naira modern building which situates at Ebenato Ward in Orsu Council Area of the state in the ancestral home of the ex-Attorney-General was completely reduced to rubbles with explosives.

It was learnt that the hoodlums later vanished into thin air after perpetrating the act.

Akaolisa, who confirmed the incident in a telephone chat with reporters said: “I am shocked that some criminal elements could be so callous to commit such atrocity which is man’s inhumanity to man.”

In the same manner, the member for the Orsu State Constituency in the state House of Assembly, Ekene Nnodumele is equally counting his losses over a similar recent fire disaster that gutted his private building in his community.
