Several unidentified men have allegedly set ablaze the house of Joe Igbokwe, special adviser on drainage and water resources to Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, in Nnewi, Anambra State.
Mr Igbokwe has been critical of the Indigenous People of Biafra in recent times. He had recently accused the group of killing Dr Chike Akunyili, widower of former NAFDAC chief Prof Dora Akunyili.
However, in a Facebook post on Sunday, he also accused the separatist group of being behind the alleged attack at his home.
“IPOB invaded my house in Nnewi about now. I am sure they raised [sic] down my house, given the jerry cans of petrol I saw being offloaded from their Sienna car via CCTV,” Igbokwe wrote.
“To God be the glory. I am still alive.”
