Suspected hoodlums have burnt down the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) office in Igboeze North Local Government Area of Enugu State.

The incident occurred on Sunday night when the arsonists stormed the office situated at the council’s headquarters in Ogurute.

Efforts to reach the state’s Police Public Relations Officer, ASP Daniel Ndukwe proved abortive at the time of this report.

However,the state fire service could not put out the inferno until the entire building was razed down and parts of the local government had been under attacks recently by unknown gunmen wreaking havoc in the southeastern region.

Due to recent attack,the state government had to impose a 6 pm to 6 am curfew and banned commercial motorcyclists in the Igboeze North and its neighbouring Igboeze South LGAs.
