The headquarters of Nnewi South Local Government Area in Anambra state has been set ablaze by gunmen.
A security man was also killed during the process on Thursday.

Anambra state governor, Charles Soludo, who visited the scene of the incident, condemned the act, describing it as thoughtless and mindless.

He also promised that the perpetrators will face the full bitterness of the law when arrested.
Others who accompanied the governor include the state Commissioner of Police, Mr. Echeng Echeng, and the state director of the Department of state service.
