The alleged invasion of the community and the alleged damage of property by security personnel presumed to be soldiers have left residents of Oriendu in Umualumaku Umueze in the Ehime Mbano Local Government Area of Imo State fearing for their lives.
Armed men broke into the community the day after two patrol vehicles in the neighborhood on Tuesday were attacked by gunmen who also killed and burned some soldiers, police officers, and members of the Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps.
It was gathered that residents of the area were currently living in fear of their lives and decried the burning of houses.
The resident who spoke in the video lamented that they were being punished for what they knew nothing about.
According to a video, several shops, buildings, properties, food shops and bars were allegedly razed by the rampaging soldiers seeking justice for their colleagues.
The roads of the quiet village looked deserted after the soldiers allegedly wreaked a devastating havoc on the community with only a handful of countable residents whose properties were destroyed seen.
