An eye witness said some men suspected to be members of Ebubeagu arrested a member of the community, and based on retaliation another group stormed the village and started shooting sporadically.
He said: "Ebubeagu people came and took away a youth from the community on Monday night, some men with guns came to the community and stormed a building site and opened fire."
"Seven persons died while others wounded were rushed to the FMC Owerri.
"An okada man who was driving through was caught in the crossfire. He was rushed to the FMC Owerri emergency unit where medical personnel are battling to save his life and others. This is so unfortunate. The community is in panic. People are running away."
