Many Feared Killed As Soldiers Lay Siege To Nnamdi Kanu’s Home by ElTommyBlaq(m): 6:27am On Sep 13, 2017 |
• Eyewitness alleges 15 died • Trucks burnt in IPOB, army clash • Ikpeazu declares curfew in Aba • Troops attack NUJ office, journalists • Ohanaeze asks FG to stop military operation, says it escalates crisis There was tension in Abia State yesterday as soldiers laid siege to the Afaraukwu country home of the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, and clashed with members of his group leading to the alleged death of 15 persons. It was learnt that the soldiers arrived in the community yesterday barely 48 hours after the clash between them and IPOB members on Sunday evening. The return of the soldiers with about 10 armoured personnel carriers (APCs) and seven Hilux vans caused panic in the area, forcing shop owners to close immediately. Some of the soldiers also invaded the Abia State Council of the Nigeria Union of Journalists on Aba Road, Umuahia, and destroyed laptops and other valuables. According to journalists at the secretariat, the soldiers claimed they saw somebody taking photographs of them from the building. The Chairman of Council, Mr. John Emejor, who confirmed the incident, said a national officer of the union, Ezeogo Bonny Okoro was slapped by one of the soldiers. “Our stand is that those involved in this attack on innocent journalists should be fished out and punished in line with the constitution of the country,” he said. The Assistant Director, Army Public Relations, 14 Brigade, Major Oyegoke Gbadamosi, confirmed the incident and asked Emejor to send the photograph of the damaged office to him. Yesterday, truckloads of IPOB members headed for Afaraukwu apparently to show solidarity to Kanu. Some members of the group moving into Umuahia were allegedly confronted at Isiala- Ngwa junction yesterday afternoon by soldiers. Some of the trucks conveying IPOB members waving the Biafra flags were seen on the dilapidated Enugu-Port Harcourt highway yesterday evening on their way to Abia State. What started like a drama of sort at the Isialangwa junction in Abia later snowballed into a major crisis that claimed lives and injuries. The Guardian learnt that at least 10 trucks were burnt with over 15 dead bodies lying on the Aba-Port Harcourt highway yesterday evening. It was learnt that the majority of those who died were either felled by bullets allegedly fired by soldiers or hit by other objects while trying to escape. A source disclosed how the trouble began: “On getting to Isiala Ngwa junction after Aba, they encountered an army check point which refused to allow them continue in their movement. This sparked off a quarrel as many other truckloads joined them. During the ensuing confrontation, bullets began to go up, especially when the IPOB members attempted to force their way to Umuahia. “At the checkpoint so many people were injured, some received head cuts, some were arrested and there were some who also lost their lives.” Information about the incident which spread to Aba, Obigbo, Port Harcourt in River State had infuriated members of the IPOB who poured into the streets and started destroying things and attacking security agents, including policemen on duty. A source said he was searched at many locations between Bayelsa and Aba. “I saw dead bodies on the way and I thank God I did not run into the crisis. I saw bonfires made here and there and trailers that were set on fire.” A source also said that most places in Obigbo in Rivers State were vacated after soldiers stormed the area in search of IPOB boys who blocked major roads in protest against the killing of their members at the Isiala Ngwa junction. A meeting scheduled to hold on Friday by governors of the south-east zone to discuss issues relating to the Biafra agitation may no longer hold as Kanu has opted out. It was learnt that Ebonyi State Governor and Chairman of South-east Governors’ Forum, Dave Umahi, had called the meeting as a follow-up to the one held in Enugu on August 30. source: http://primebaze.com.ng/2017/09/13/many-feared-killed-soldiers-lay-siege-nnamdi-kanus-home/ 1 Like |

I hope we all noticed that the army said they were just going on on their peaceful parade, now with the more trucks and lorries of soldiers it is clear that the claims of Ipob earlier were correct, and the government of Nigeria is carrying out Barbaric act on unarmed people. Now we can also believe that this information is a farce, or we can believe it's true, but certainly there is a bigger game here at play. One, they want to tag Ipob terrorists group, hence they're exciting them, trying to see if they will reach their limits and pick up arms against Nigeria. Two, they want to exterminate the Igbos: why? Because once this tribe, this ethnic group is removed, no more Biafra, and then the SS and SE can remain in perpetual bondage, and later on extermination when the Muslim purge of infidels begins. But what do I know? 5 Likes 1 Share |
