Enugu State Government has dismissed as false and misleading, reports circulating on social media platforms alleging that innocent citizens were attacked in Awgu, Awgu Council Area of the state.

The state Commissioner for Information and Communication, Dr Malachy Agbo, disclosed this in a statement in Enugu on Monday.

According to Agbo, no such incident occurred anywhere in Awgu or any other part of the state.

He described the report as a fabrication deliberately concocted by individuals seeking to misinform the public and create unnecessary panic.
