Gun-wielding bandits have robbed a popular supermarket, Uzorbest Super-market Limited, at Onu Asata Junction of Enugu metropolis carting away goods worth over N1 million.<\/div>\n
\nIt was gathered that the robbers carted away 18 bags of 50kg foreign and local rice, 10 bags of 10kg rice; 30 cartons of noodles and five bags of 20kg semolina.<\/p>\n

The armed bandits also took away four giant cooking gas cylinder from a neighouring shop to the Supermarket.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Pointblanknews.com gathered that the bandits arrived at the Supermarket in three Hilux jeeps in commando-style at about 6 p.m. on Monday.<\/div>\n
\nThe super-market attendance, Mr Sunday Ngwoke, told newsmen that the bandits numbering about 15 were wearing black face masks and one of them kept shouting \u201cload these bags quickly\u2019\u2019.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt first I thought they were government officials that came to check for the standard of the products.<\/p>\n

\u201cI struggled to restrict one of them not taking the first bag of rice but when I saw the big gun one of them was holding I restricted myself.<\/p><\/div>\n

\n\u201cThey parked the whole items I mentioned to you earlier and loaded it into the three Hilux jeeps as been commanded by one of them.<\/p>\n

\u201cBefore they left, they started shooting sporadically into the air and scared everybody away.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe thank God no one was hurt throughout the incident and they did not take a kobo from the supermarket just the foodstuffs and the four giant cooking gas cylinders of our neighbor,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Enugu Police Public Relations Officer, Daniel Ndukwe, said that the Command was yet to get a brief of the incident from the Divisional Police Officer at Ogui Division.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Command will establish contact with the DPO in the area and get full details of the incident.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am assuring you and the members of the public that the Command will issue an official statement on the incident after being briefed,\u2019\u2019 he said.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
