Following the burning down of the study centre of the National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN), at Eze Oke Nsu in Ehime Mbano Council Area of Imo State, the police comand has announced that it has made arrests.
This was communicated by the Imo State Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO) Henry Okoye, who disclosed this to newsmen in Owerri.
“I am pleased to announce that over eight suspects have been arrested in connection with the arson incidents in Ehime Mbano. Investigations are ongoing. More details will be communicated in due course.” he stated.
SaharaReporters earlier noted that some dare-devil gunmen struck on Monday night, setting ablaze the country home of Senator Frank Ibezim on fire.
Also set ablaze by the assailants is the National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN) study centre in Nsu in Ehime Mbano.
Ibezim who is the immediate past senator for Imo North (Okigwe zone) hails from Nsu in the Ehime Mbano Local Government Area of Imo State.
A video clip circulating showed Ibezim’s house gutted by fire with a voice in the background lamenting the level of destruction.
The former lawmaker was recently accused of attracting a refugees and Internally Displaced Persons Camp for Fulani at the National Open University campus in Nsu in the Ehime Mbano LGA, a claim he had publicly denied.
Ibezim in a statement he personally issued had said, “I am compelled by our joint sense of purpose and commitment to address some misinformation arising from the TVC news coverage of my recent visit to the National Open University of Nigeria (NOUN), Nsu Study Centre.
“I was accompanied by the Federal Commissioner for Refugees, Migrants, and Internally Displaced Persons, and the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Humanitarian Affairs and Poverty Alleviation.
“First, I must clarify that the video of refugees attached to the TVC broadcast, which has caused understandable anxiety, was not filmed in Imo State. The insinuation that there is intent to settle IDPs, refugees, or migrant persons at the NOUN Nsu Centre is entirely false.”
