Local News : Nigerian Army Denies Attacking Nnamdi Kanu's Home... Here Is What Actually Happened And Photos

The Nigeria army yesterday, allegedly attacked the home of IPOB leader, Nnamdi Kanu in a video shared by SpyWorld TV on YouTube which queendosh.info posted here. Beside the video, Sahara reporters claimed ,that three persons where killed and many injured but the army has come out to refute the story calling it false. Read report below...

The attention of 14 Brigade Nigerian Army, has been drawn to fictitious news going round especially on the social media that troops have invaded the home of Nnamdi Kanu and killed 3 persons.
This is far from the truth. Rather, it was a group of suspected IPOB militants that blocked the road against troops of 145 Battalion while on show of force along FMC-Word Bank Road in Umuahia town, Abia State at about 6.00-6.30pm, today. They insisted that the military vehicles would not pass and started pelting the soldiers with stones and broken bottles to the point of injuring an innocent female passerby and a soldier, Corporal Kolawole Mathew.

The troops fired warning shots in the air and the hoodlooms dispersed. No life was lost.
