He informed that he personally visited the scene of the attack and was dumbfounded by the gross brutality on Orient Workers and  quantum of damage to property by the invaders.

Igwe Edozieuno said: ‘’What baffled me most was this hoodlums were able to wreck such magnitude of damage to life and properly undisturbed, considering the presence of armed Security Agents (mobile policemen, Nigeria Navy, Army and Anambra Vigilante).
