They Were Fast Asleep When Someone Tried to Break Into Their House in Abakaliki

Ezeh Sunday, a resident of Ishieke, Abakaliki, Ebonyi State, has raised concerns over security following an attempted break-in at a residential building.

According to the account, some occupants of the house were sleeping when someone attempted to open their door using an object.

One of the roommates who was still awake noticed what was happening and alerted the others.

Before she could shout for help, however, the suspected intruder had already fled.

A similar incident was also reported at a lodge, where a phone was stolen while someone was sleeping. The occupants reportedly could not explain how the thief gained access.

As December approaches, residents are advised to remain security-conscious and ensure their doors are properly locked, even while sleeping.

While security agencies continue their efforts, everyone also has a responsibility to take precautions to protect lives and property.
