The gunmen subsequently gained access to the building and killed three others receiving treatments and the nurse.
The victims were said to be among the gunmen, who recently murdered seven policemen in coordinated attacks on security formations along the East-West Road and Elimgbu Police Station.
A security source, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said the bandits were trying to get medical treatments for multiple bullet injuries inflicted on them by the police when luck ran out on them.
He said, “Remember that recently gunmen, disguised as security operatives killed seven policemen when they attacked their formations along the East-West Road and the Elimgbu Police Station.
“During that attack, the police at Elimgbu engaged them in a gun battle. They sustained injuries and even abandoned their Hilux van.
Those who were wounded ran to their hideout at Irebe side in Oyigbo and hired one Uchechi, a nurse, to treat them.
“They were tracked to their hideout. Three of them were already on drip. Sensing danger, one of the gunmen scaled the fence but was gunned down by the unknown gunmen.
