SaharaReporters has obtained handwritten documents revealing the arrest and detention of Benjamin Madu, who admitted to Department of State Services (DSS) agents that he was a member of the Indigenous Peoples of Biafra (IPOB). Mr. Madu was arrested by agents of DSS after a container was discovered in his home that contained a radio transmitter that was transmitting Radio Biafra programming.

According to a document provided to SaharaReporters, several firearms were also discovered in the home of Mr. Madu. Among the weapons were an Emerald Magnum pump-action shotgun, a Delia pump-action shotgun, a packet containing 17 12-calibre cartridges, and another a packet containing 24 12-calibre cartridges.

The list also included a reference to a small satchel “containing substances suspected to be Indian Hemp”.

It will be recalled that the leader of IPOB and the Director of Radio Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, was arrested on October 18, 2015. He remains in custody despite being granted bail.

Earlier this week SaharaReporters exclusively obtained a statement used by DSS as evidence that “Biafran soldiers” were linked to IPOB. In the statement references were made to armed individuals present at IPOB meetings and training exercises. The statement was written by Tochukwu Meribe and described his experiences with IPOB as a member of the organization.

**grins** The DSS have taken
investigative idiocy to a whole new
height, even the dirty policeman on
the street is now more respected than them. If you go to the gariki in
amansea, awka where fulanis sell
cows right now, you will see them
hanging AK47. Just go there with your camera, you'll take a lot of picture of AK47-weilding fulanis. When is daura going to arresting them? Global terrorism index ranks them as the 4th most dangerous group but Buhari doesn't give a damn. Let kanu die, so we can redefine this country once and for all. **grins**
