Unidentified gunmen have killed two soldiers attached to the 14 Brigade, Ohafia, Abia State.
The soldiers were attacked at their outpost at the Aba main motor park along Asa road. 
The newspaper gathered that the incident which occurred at about 8:00pm also took the life of a man suspected to be a keke operator.
The attack on the Army outpost is coming months after a military outpost at Ngwa road by No.1 Port Harcourt road, Aba, was attacked, with no life lost.
It was further gathered that other soldiers at the outpost repelled the gunmen.
However, the gang was alleged to have made away with the weapons of the deceased soldiers.
One of the soldiers was said to have died on the spot, while his colleague was declared dead at the hospital where he was rushed for medical attention.
Some shop owners at the Asa Road/ Park Road/ Milverton Avenue junction disclosed that they were greeted with rapid gunfire as the gunmen took the soldiers by surprise.
The situation caused panic at the adjoining Milverton Avenue which is the hub of luxury bus transport business in Aba as motorists and passengers scampered to safety.
Business owners around the General post office opposite the military outpost also abandoned their wares as soldiers took over the area.
