Some yet to-be-identified gunmen reportedly stormed community in Izzi local government area of Ebonyi State and killed two people suspected to be members of the All Progressive Congress, APC.

It was gathered that the incident took place during an APC meeting in the affected community last Friday night, when the gunmen stormed the venue and opened fire.

The gunmen, who were said to be two in number reportedly operated on a motorcycle.

“An unconfirmed report said the incident happened in Mkpuma Akpatakpa village of Izzi LGA.

They were said to have quickly zoomed off as soon as they completed their assignment.

Two persons were confirmed dead while two others were said to be receiving treatment at the Alex Ekwueme Federal University Teaching Hospital, Abakaliki.
