In the early hours of Sunday, 15th December 2024, Chief Uche Anya’s residential area in Independence Layout was transformed into a war zone as a large contingent of soldiers stormed the home of the Chairman of the Enugu Capital Territory Development Authority in a dramatic commando-style operation.

Details of the incident remain hazy, but a local resident reported that the soldiers arrived in force, deploying numerous Armoured Personnel Carriers (APCs) and gun trucks.

There are fears that a police aide may have lost their life during the chaos, though this has yet to be confirmed. Local sources have also indicated that Chief Anya’s gatekeeper was taken away as well.

“They opened fire indiscriminately, smashing through several security doors and ransacking the house before abducting the Chairman,” said the resident, who requested anonymity for fear of reprisals.

“The men arrived around 2:30am. When we ventured outside after they had left, we found stains of blood on the floor and noticed that gunfire had shattered the windscreens of vehicles parked at the residence.”

Another resident described the incident as “devastating,” stating that the suspected military personnel left the neighborhood in terror. Those who attempted to flee from the gunfire witnessed the soldiers using APCs to block Toscana, Brown, and other roads leading to the ECTDA Chairman’s home.

He also revealed that the soldiers appeared intent on causing havoc, mistakenly breaking into a neighbouring house, believing it to be Anya’s, and leaving a trail of destruction in their wake.

As of the time of this report, neither the police nor the army has issued a statement regarding this outrageous incident.
