Villagers of the oil-rich Izombe community in Oguta LGA of Imo State have deserted their homes over the alleged killing of security personnel and youth.
A report has it that the personnel this morning confronted a youth engaged in bunkering business at the village and killed him, a situation which forced the youths to descend on the security personnel and killed them too.
The situation became charged when the personnel in their numbers stormed the community for retaliation leading to the razing down of the palace of the traditional ruler of the community and other houses close to the Eze’s palace.
