On Saturday, the assailants broke into the building and started shooting at the workers, killing a Chinese guy.
The police officers securing the foreigner were apparently disarmed by the gunmen.
SP Chris Anyanwu, the police department’s public relations officer, provided an update on the incident on Monday.
He claimed that “one of the on-duty policeman got major bullet wounds and is still getting treatment.”
Anyanwu demanded immediate disclosure of reliable information regarding the names and whereabouts of the offenders.
Steve Emenike, the chairman of the Izzi Local Government Area, called the murder “a national humiliation.”
According to Emenike, the gunmen rode motorbikes to the mining site in the LGA’s Otam Nwogba village.
The deceased’s body has been placed in a morgue in Abakaliki, the administrative center of Ebonyi.
