October 03, (THEWILL) – The country home of a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Joe Igbokwe, has been burnt down by arsonists.
The house, which is located in Nnewi, Anambra State, was attacked on Sunday afternoon.
The video of the fire was shared by Igbokwe on his facebook timeline.
He is the APC Publicity Secretary for Lagos State, as well as Special Adviser on Drains.
Igbokwe, who confirmed the development in Lagos, alleged that his house was set ablaze by members of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).
He wrote: “Here it is. My Home in Nnewi has been sacrificed. No life was lost. To God be the glory.
“IPOB invaded my house in Nnewi about now. I am sure they razed down my house giving the jerry-cans of petrol I saw being offloaded from their Sienna car via CCTV.
“To God be the glory. I am still alive. My Study is my greatest regret.”
Joe Igbokwe has been engaged in a war of words with IPOB that he claimed placed a bounty on his head.
When Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of IPOB was arrested earlier this year, Igbokwe had allegedly made a post mocking the Biafran separatist.
