Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Hoodlums have burnt down the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) office in Igboeze North Local Government Area of Enugu State.<\/p>\n

DAILY POST gathered that the incident occurred on Sunday night when the arsonists stormed the office situated at the council\u2019s headquarters in Ogurute.<\/p>\n

Efforts to reach the state\u2019s Police Public Relations Officer, ASP Daniel Ndukwe proved abortive at press time.<\/p>\n

However, our correspondent gathered that the state fire service could not put out the inferno until the entire building was razed down.<\/p>\n

It was also gathered that parts of the local government had been under attacks recently by unknown gunmen wreaking havoc in the southeastern region.<\/p>\n

Recall that the state government had recently imposed a 6 pm to 6 am curfew and banned commercial motorcyclists in the Igboeze North and its neighbouring Igboeze South LGAs.<\/p>\n
