The hoodlums, who stormed the secretariat located at Ekwulobia in two vehicles around 3pm, were said to have shot dead two persons in the process.
The attack came barely a week after the secretariat of Nnewi Local Government Area headquarters at Ukpo was set ablaze.
An eyewitness said: ” I don’t know the reason for their attack. But I saw two persons who must have died in the attack as they were being put into a pickup van.”
Anambra Police spokesperson, Tochukwu Ikenga confirmed the incident.
He informed police operatives and firefighters have been mobilised to the scene.
According to him: “I’m aware of the incident. We have mobilised police operatives to the place. Firefighters and men of the Federal Road Safety Corps have also moved to the place.
“We are on top of the situation and we assure you that the hoodlums will not go unpunished.”
