The Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Police Command has confirmed that two officers died while three others are currently unconscious following an attack by members of the proscribed Islamic Movement of Nigeria, IMN, popularly known as ‘Shi’ites’.
DAILY POST reports that the Islamic group launched an attack on some personnel of the Nigeria Police Force at Wuse Junction by traffic light on Sunday.
