A video making the rounds online shows the moment some unknown gunmen were walking on the streets of Owerri, Imo state.

The footage surfaced hours after some gunmen invaded and burnt a police station in the state capital.

The Punch reports that, gunmen set ablaze Orji Divisional Police Headquarters situated on Owerri- Okigwe Road in Owerri on Tuesday.

The situation caused panic in the area as businessmen ran away, vehicles diverted while motorists scampered for safety after running out of vehicles.

Eyewitnesses told The Punch that the gunmen attacked the police station after blocking the expressway with their vehicles. There were said to have told nearby traders not to panic.

The video, however, showed some armed men walking undisturbed on the road.

A Nigerian woman identified as Laylah Ali Othman has narrated how she took a teenage boy off the streets and gave him a chance to become educated.

According to Laylah, she found the boy, simply known as Aliyu at a branch of her office in Wuse II, Abuja and he was laying down in guilt after breaking his fast due to his inability to see.

She said that the 12-year-old boy normally walks cattle from one side to another on a daily basis, but after hearing his story, she decided to take him as her son.

Aliyu was asked if he would like to go to school and he said yes, so the kindhearted woman contacted his people and after some back and forth, he was eventually enrolled into school.

Sharing a photo of herself with Aliyu and his family, the woman wrote;

”Hi FB family, meet my new Son Aliyu.. I found him at my wuse2 branch sitting under a shade just laying down, looking like he wasn’t feeling good, a staff of mine asked him what was wrong he said he broke his fast cos he can’t see,

He is just 12, his job daily was to walk along side many cattle from one end to other, i asked to meet him, he came in and stole my heart away, i asked him if wanted to go to school he immediately said yes, i asked for his house address and father’s telephone number, which he rightly give me, i called them, we went back and forth, i had to drive down myself multiple times for the family to agree, las las dem gree.. lol. So now here we are, He will be starting school tomorrow insha Allah.. My boys are so excited to meet him. I now have 3 handsome kids………
