Some residents were killed in Aba, the commercial city of Abia State, on Tuesday by suspected enforcers of sit-at-home order.
The hooded men in black murdered two persons around Old Express off Sameck Junction, within the Aba North Local Government Area.
One of the victims was simply identified as a caretaker, while the other’s identity was not immediately ascertained.
No group has claimed responsibility for the killing, leaving residents of the area in fear.
According to the Nation, the group of boys came to the compound, knocking from door to door.
The caretaker was said to have come out to see who was at the door and was shot in front of his residence.
DAILY POST reports that residents of Aba, for the second day, stayed away from their business premises following the sit-at-home order by members of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB.
