Osita Chidoka, former minister of
aviation, on Thursday said that the
Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB)
told him that they will remain non-
violent.
This was contained in his statement
on the killings in Emene, Enugu
State.
On August 23, a clash between IPOB
and the Department of State Services
(DSS) led to loss of lives.
Commending efforts to de-escalate
the tension, Chidoka said: “IPOB
representatives assured me that they
remain a non-violent organisation.”
He urged the state government to
probe the incident.
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)
chieftain called for an end to
excessive force.
Chidoka also demanded that those
responsible for the death of DSS
officers and theft of their arms be
fished out.
The former minister noted that
persons in police custody be granted
bail or be charged to court.
He said: “In my interaction with the
security agencies, facts emerged that
the DSS lost two officers and
automatic rifles during the fracas
while two members of IPOB were
killed and about five injured.
“I condole with the families of all
those who lost their lives and ask the
government of Enugu State to
institute a Commission of Inquiry to
ascertain the truth around the
incident that led to the death of
unarmed civilians and security
agents. “Security agencies must continue to respect the fundamental rights of peaceful assembly in a democracy and be guided by rules of engagement in dealing with unarmed civilians. “Use of force in delicate situations is a bye-product of the militarisation of our society and must be avoided. I condemn the use of violence by any group whether security agents or private groups.” Chidoka added that he would continue to engage with all sides for a peaceful resolution of the conflict. https://dailypost.ng/2020/08/28/enugu-killings-what-ipob-told-me-chidoka/ 2 Likes |

The question is, in what part of the world do we still have this archaic approach of handling secession agitations by killing and showing force? Meanwhile our govt officials want to advise the people in Mali. 6 Likes |

Interesting that the true story is finally coming to the fore. The fact that it's coming from one of their respected son in the opposition makes it more believable. We've heard series of lies and propaganda from the IPOB and their supporters. My stance on this is hing on the Latin maxim "Nemo dat quod non actionio' meaning illegality cannot constitute a legal action. If IPOB has been proscribed then it is illegal for them to operate in any guise, and any harm done to them cannot be pursue legally. |

No names, no pictures of the dead officers.. If you believe the account of the satanic police force, which is an oppressive tool of the sokoto caliphate, that 2 officers died, please send me a private message, I have a flying dinosaur I want to sell to you. 7 Likes 1 Share |

Every Igbo politician trying to curry favor and be in d good books of IPOB. Why do u identify with IPOB struggle with fear and cowardice. What is wrong in outright condemnation of d excessive use of force on people who jejely gathered within a public place doing their Jewish prayers. There was no disturbance to public peace, they were not armed and were not a security threat to anyone. I like Abaribe for his bravery and Ankio Briggs too both who held d supporter of APC security agencies by d jugular and condemned in strongest terms this genocide against a ppl so much hated for no reason 7 Likes 1 Share |

Aufbauh: Shut up! Keep that mouth shut so you don’t display your ignorance for all to see! Since when was a on-the-spot death sentence the price to pay for ‘illegality’!? Your herdsmen brothers that have been going about all over the country, leaving destruction, misery, orphans, widows, etc in their wake...how many of them have been handed down this ‘sentence’ of death by the combined forces of the police, army, navy, airforce and DSS!? They’ve ramped up their operations ever since their kinsman was sworn into office in 2015, and have murdered thousands in cold-blood! How many of them have been given this treatment given to my kinsfolk that you’re now applauding!? Given how you display your hatred for Igbos and evil intentions towards them, one would have thought you’d be in support of IPOB....anything that would help you get rid of Ndigbo from your zoo of a country! You people are not only evil but disgusting as well! 4 Likes |

jlinkd78: Only Abaribe and Ankio-Briggs have said it as it is, without trying to sound apologetic for anything! What’s wrong is wrong! Assuming it’s true that a DSS official lost his life, then it’s quite unfortunate! But i doubt i’d have acted any different from those boys after seeing my brothers gunned down in cold-blood! 2 Likes |

PROUDIGBO: Ndo! I feel your frustration, bitterness and pain. However, i can't help you as you're stuck in the zoo. It's so pathetic that a lettered person can believe in an obvious fantasy of unrealistic eldorado country call Biafra. An exercise in futility, a tale of an unserious lazy man believing that a country will be birth and all his problem will be gone. What a pity! 1 Like |

Chidoka ended up saying nothing and I'm sure IPOB didn't tell him anything. |

Aufbauh:the people of Katsina, Zamfara, Borno, Kaduna, Taraba, Benue, Niger that believed in your niggarea how body? One of your niggarea senator was crying yesterday that he can't travel to his village after so many people were murdered. What a shame, what a pity to believe in poverty capital of the world with a president without WAEC certificate that has made your niggaerea a safe haven for terrorists. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Chidioka has lost all the respect l had for him, it seems he is planning to join APC or looking for an appointment. How could he have made this useless statement instead of him to condemn the evil. He virtually blamed unarmed lgbo innocent youths for observing their freedom of association. He apparently absolved the police. Shame on you, Chidioka. 1 Like |

Chidioka or what ever his name is can say what ever he like to please enemies of Igbos. But we share never forget nor forgive the killing of our people by the terrorist state called nigeria. Is not a threat but a promise. |
