Gunmen suspected to be members of the Eastern Security Network (ESN), an armed wing of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), in the early hours of Monday, attacked the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) headquarters along Owerri Port Harcourt road in Imo State with bombs.

The gunmen were said to have thrown grenades into the office which caused damage to a section of the building.
