Mystery helicopter creates panic in Enugu Govt House

Staff and occupants of the Enugu State Government House on Tuesday took to their heels when a mystery helicopter
landed within the premises at about 11am. Our correspondent learnt that the mission of the visitors was unknown to the government and it took security
agencies about three hours to confront them. After preliminary inquiries, Mr. Fidelis Ogarabe, the Chief Security Officer to Governor Sullivan Chime, handed the
three occupants of the aircraft to the Enugu State Police Command for further investigation. The occupants were two pilots and one engineer. At the time of filing this report, the Police Public Relations Officer in the state, Mr. Ebere Amaraizu, could not pass detailed comments on the matter. He said, “We are trying to find out certain things from the
occupants of the aircraft. We need to really find out what their mission was. I will issue a release when we must
have done that.” However, a police source who spoke to The PUNCH, said the occupants are indigenes of northern Nigeria. “With the equipment they had in their possession, we suspect they had come to place a bomb at the Government House,” said the police source. Another police source said, “The occupants have refused to give us full details of their identity. Some of us here believe it is either a planned attack by Boko Haram members, or another attack by members of the Biafra Zionist Movement.”
The PUNCH recalls that earlier in the year, about 50 BZM members, wielding matchetes, had attacked the Government House in the wee hours of the morning.
In a counter-attack, the police had killed one of the BZM members and arrested three. But subsequently, the BZM had promised to attack the Government House again if secession was not granted the old Eastern Region. Meanwhile, by about 3pm on Tuesday, the state government had condoned off the Enugu State Government House. More so, police officers were seen taking guard in all corners of the state.
