The well-known Nkpor intersection between Onitsha and Igbariam, which is close to the campus of Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu University, was attacked by gunmen on Friday, causing parents who had previously dropped off their children at the schools to hastily rush back to pick them up.
As soon as bullets were heard around the state, markets and gas stations in Awka and Onitsha closed.
From the Igbariam crossroads in Awkuzu, the assailants chased commercial motorbike and keke drivers, as well as individual drivers and shuttle buses.
They drove to the Igbariam campus from the intersection.
