Suspected Ijaw Militants Kill 15 In A Raid On Ogun Community by Danmas: 9:39am On Jun 24, 2016 |
At least 15 people lost their lives on Friday, June 17, in a militants’ raid – A Muslim cleric was reportedly killed in an attack on a local mosque – An anonymous local claims the attackers might be of Ijaw origin – The police confirmed the attack, however, disagreed with the number of people killed Unknown armed men raided Imushin community, Ogijo area of Ogun state, in the late hours of June 17, killing at least 15 residents, ThePunch reported. The militants on a killing spree were about 100 in number. They carried guns and cutlasses. Among the 15 killed was a technician, a travel agent, and even a Muslim cleric from a local mosque. The Hausa community vowed to make the attackers pay for the death of two of its members. The residents say two hotels were raided, and their guests were robbed and injured. Over 25 shops in the community were reportedly looted by the attackers. A resident told a reporter of ThePunch the militants were of Ijaw origin. She said the youths came on a revenge mission following the killing of two of their friends, suspected pipeline vandals. It has been gathered the State Anti-Robbery Squad engaged the two suspects at about 4pm on Friday, June 17. The group of suspected militants armed with sophisticated weapons came back on the same day, after 10pm. Both the residents and the community leaders were reluctant to share details. The suspected militants scared them with more violence and brutality if a case against them is reported to the police. However, those who have the courage to speak, beg the government to intervene before the area becomes completely deserted. “These people are militants and even the police cannot withstand their firepower. We need help from the government. We will appreciate anything they can do for us,” a man from Imushin community said. The Ogun police confirmed the attack and death of three people. The authorities are aware that suspected militants from riverine area might be behind the attack. However, the police failed to find a reason why the invaders came in such a large number. https://www.naij.com/865130-suspected-ijaw-militants-kill-muslim-cleric-14-others-raid-ogun-community.html |

Is this the point were we can assume the attackers are from Cote d'Ivoire, following the FG's template? |

It is not ogijo ooo...it is Igbo Olomu and since Monday they have been killing people as of this midnight till this morning, they beheaded 3people(my dad saw the corpses) killed 2 landlords(they did CDA meeting to bring army for protection of their street. And the Ijaw people heard and decided to kill them) they have been carrying dead bodies outside Igbo Olomu since morning and the police and army have been quite about it despite the fact that there is police station in isawo....people have been packing out of the environ since all schools have been shut down due to fear of attack |

It isn't propaganda o it is real. The ijaw people have taken over...news spreading out is that they have installed baale(community head) for themselves...the area is no longer safe..we don't have security in this country oo cos the army that have been parading the area since the time when the fuel vandalism was rampant are as useless as anything cos they have collected bribe and aiint working at all they have pretended not to know what is going own. A church member just came to my place looking for her husband who was meant to be home last night Buh didn't. But thank God. He has been seen. He said his bus he was in was attacked last night and it was shot repeated Buh the driver managed to manuveur and drive out of Igbo Olomu....the crisis is as mad as that |
