The police take over of the High Court premises in Owerri caused immediate panic in the surrounding environs who could not make out what was happening. The officers arrived in war-like looking hilux pickup trucks and carrying sophisticated weapons.

An eyewitness who was inside the court at the High Court Owerri when the police force arrived, described the arrival of the police officers as frightening and jolting. “We thought it was an attack“.
