Rampaging gunmen on Saturday night attacked security operatives in Enugu State.
Two soldiers and three policemen were killed during the attack on Enugu-Ebonyi border.
It’s gathered that the gunmen, who operated in a Toyota Sienna, first killed the two soldiers in a checkpoint in Enugu before proceeding to the Enugu-Ebonyi border.
Three policemen were reportedly shot dead at the border checkpoint.
Another wounded policeman is said to be receiving treatment.
The killings is latest in series of attacks in the beleaguered South Eastern states as the zone continues to grapple with violent attacks and criminality which have killed many and crippled commercial activities.
