Oyigbo in Port Harcourt is currently under attack.
Newsone Nigeria reports that Oyigbo is a town 30 kilometers from the port city of Port Harcourt and a local government area of Rivers State, south-south Nigeria. It is a satellite of Port Harcourt, the Rivers State capital.
The ongoing attack in Oyigbo LGA in Rivers State is coming a few hours after President Muhammadu Buhari addressed Nigerians on #EndSARS protests and police brutality during which he suspended #EndSARS protests which was ongoing across Nigeria until a massacre of the peaceful protesters by soldiers of the Nigerian Army.
The President in a nationwide broadcast on Thursday night, suspended protests across the nation. He said the suspension follows the violent turn of #ENDSARS protests across the Federation, which have been hijacked by hoodlums.

“Your voice has been heard loud and clear and we are responding,” President Buhari added.
