From: OKEY SAMPSON, Aba

The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has declared 21 days mourning for its members killed during the military invasion of the home of its leader, Nnamdi Kanu at Afara Ukwu, Umuahia, Abia State. This is even as the Biafra agitation group says it has discovered more corpses of her slain members in a bush within the precincts of the home of its leader.

The group equally informed that it is burying the slain members, numbering more than over 28 who were killed during the invasion, in piecemeal with 11 of such bodies already interred.

A senior member of the group, Mark Eze Ofuonye, who disclosed how some of their members were shot dead by the invading soldiers, and their corpses dumped in a bush near the home of the IPOB leader, said: “Some of our members, numbering over 28, were murdered in cold blood by the military during the invasion of our leader’s home at Afara Ukwu. The soldiers were doing a sort of mop up operation; whenever they killed any of our members, they carried away the corpse to conceal their horrendous act but it was not possible.

“So, they filled up their trucks with our members’ corpses. The corpses we retrieved and which we are burying at present are those the soldiers could not carry. They just came out with the intention of killing any human being or living thing that was found in the compound of our leader. The people they met were not armed still they shot them, even people just standing nearby and those passing through the area were caught in the attack.”

Continuing, Ofuonye said: “The corpses we are burying now (referring to the day of the interview) were found inside the bush. They were shot by soldiers and they ran into the bush with bullet wounds thinking that they could receive help there but no help came their way and they died inside the bush. Some of the dead bodies were discovered last week inside the bush at the back of Nnamdi Kanu’s house. The 28 were those ones that were killed within the axis of the house of our leader. But the total number killed within this range is 305 persons.”

The IPOB chieftain who said there was no need for the operation by the Nigerian army as members of the group did not carry arms neither were they violent, added that the leadership of the group declared the 21-day mourning for their slain members.

Disclosing that those killed were from the Eastern heartland, Ofuonye said that in addition to burying the dead, the group is also treating the injured and taking care of the imprisoned ones.

“We lost very vibrant and lovely youths who were just peacefully asking for their rights, but the Nigerian government chose to use brute force on them. Some of our members, who were forced to drink poisoned water, have been defecating blood and we are also treating them. About 76 of our members were dumped in Aba prisons under the most inhuman condition and many of them are ill. A lot of things are being done against our members, but the most beautiful thing about all these things is that the horrible experience we are passing through is giving us strength. The spirit has risen, the enthusiasm has come because when you look back and see you’ve lost a lovely one, a colleague, going back becomes a very big problem; you can’t go so that it will not look as betrayal. As I speak, we are establishing more zones and new members are coming in, we are winning the war of battle of hearts and minds,” he assured.

He said the 21-days of mourning began October 26. He was emphatic that the struggle would continue, stating: “Because in any struggle, people die, but the only painful aspect of it is that we lost young boys, youths who had bright future. In the civilized world, you don’t touch people like that, no matter what they did, at worst you take them to court; but we have drawn strength from their death and we are not going back.”

He advised the United Nations to send its representatives to the home of their leader at Afara Ukwu to be able to see how soldiers invaded the house of a core civilian with heavy armoury and none of the soldiers sustained any scratch which he said was an indication that despite the propaganda mounted by the Nigerian army, the IPOB members were not armed.

One thing is very certain: Buhari will never go unpunished, even to his fifth generation. From the 2011 elections youth corps members to the Shi'ites to IPOB now, innocent blood is too much on his hands/head.

Of two people/sides/team one side at least is fully conscious of the lie, either the one that lies or the one being sold a lie.
Lying is a trend/habit so you can safely be guided!

What Im hoping for is that when IPOB successfully lifts its proscription as a terrorist organisation in the Nigerian courts, IPOB legal team should swing into action bring court suits against the Federal Govt, the Nigerian Army and the Nigerian Police force for:

1) Illegal military invasion
2) Unlawful killings
3) Illegal detention and torture
4) Excessive use of force

I want the IPOB legal team to approach the Nigerian court, the ECOWAS court and the ICC.

It should be noted that those who have been killed cannot be brought back, however, a guilty verdict against the authorities will go a long way to bringing justice to dead. Any monetary award that comes from such court case should be used to rehabilitate the family of those who have lost loved ones, those who were injured or maimed and those who have been illegally detained.

Buhari's aides always claim that Buhari is always slow to act on anything because he usually says that he'll account for it in the hereafter.

If killing off infidels isn't one of such things he is slow to act on, or if he's thought about it and considered it part of blessings he's gonna receive based on his accounts in the hereafter, isn't it safe to say that the man is a Muslim terrorist? Just a question because most terrorists act exactly the same way.

I've watched insider videos of life in terrorist camps... They ain't wicked to each other.. Always start every sentence with asamalakun.... Love, smile and hug one another... But are very opposite and wicked towards others especially those they call infidels. Which this Ipob group falls under.

Liars.

Either you're scared or you're wishing it wasn't true. Either way, I know that you know that it's true. Many of your kind used other images of killed Ipob members to taunt Igbos here. So it's quite hard for the army to defend itself.

They killed and they boast with it. FACT. What set of losers and illiterates they are.

Now you're here wishing away the horrors of your past. Too late.

You should continue to boast with pictures of murdered innocent people. At least it will make you look courageous.

What sort of sick person keeps images of murdered people in his phone just because of hate beats my imagination.

Buhari's brain understands nothing but threats and killing of unarmed citizens.

May the souls of those unjustly killed by Buhari and the military not rest in peace until they payback those who killed them

Bros, even if the pictures are from Haiti or Bujumbura, do you wish that on fellow human being for whatever reason?

Those men were tied, unable to defend themselves and murdered from what l see in the picture and you are talking geography!

Look, humanity first before religion, ethnicity or politics...

Coming from an organisation that just threatened people to VOTE and DIE?

It's their problem, you can't be going against the state in an irrational manner and expect pats in the back.

I have followed the Catalan quest for independence and their leaders never incited them against other Spaniards.
