Secret genocide against IPOB members by DSS, SARS and ARMY

By Cynthia Igbokwe

The Nigerian Military, Department of State Services (DSS), Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) appear to be on a mission to eliminate all members of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).

They have continued to invade the South East Communities (Biafra land) including Anambra state, Abia state, Enugu state, Imo state, Ebonyi state and even others in South South, whisking away innocent unarmed Biafrans.

They continued to embark on house to house search for IPOB members, blindfolding them before taking them away.

And it’s unbelievable that 90% of those whisked away never returned alive.

Despite the awareness created by IPOB members both locally and internationally, the Nigerian government persisted and continued to kill harmless placard carrying IPOB members.

Abia state has been a target particularly with the recent camp for the python dance ( Operation Egwu Eke) by the military team, and most times joint team security patrol with SARS and DSS worsened issues over there for members of IPOB.

Some IPOB members families have been repeatedly attacked and some of their family members go missing even as some are currently placed on wanted list by the DSS, SARS and the ARMY.

The families mostly affected in Abia state included but not limited to Obiukwu family, Uzozie family, Ihezue family, Echewodo family, Mazi Nnamdi Kalu’s family and Okagu family. The above families were targeted because one or two members of the family are not only core IPOB members, but very active, support and empower IPOB members comprehensively.

Most of these Biafrans stay abroad and when they come back they become a target, killed secretly or they get arrested and killed.

Nnamdi Kalu was a case in point as he couldn’t come back home to bury his late parents in 2019.

Few of the IPOB members escaped being killed when they visited Nigeria few years ago, for example one of the IPOB active member who played a vital role in the lives of members and IPOB struggle by name Mazi Christopher Echewodo who once visited Nigeria from Australia sometime late 2015 was attacked by a group of people who claimed to be Fulani Herdsmen but are putting on Nigeria Army uniform.

And to their shock, not long after that his family house was attacked, luckily he had travelled back before the ugly episode. His brother was arrested twice by DSS and SARS and his family members including parents had gone into hiding till date.

According to family sources, they were earlier hospitalised as a result of torture in the hands of SARS in late 20 17 and mid 2019
just because of Mazi Christopher Echewodo who they have already listed his name among the wanted IPOB members by SARS and DSS.

Present administration of Nigeria known for it’s bad and corrupt regime had in their broadcast mentioned these IPOB member families as targets which also led to continuous persecution they are going through.

This is how desperate the Nigeria government is in eliminating Biafrans, targeting their very best, sound and promising Biafrans.

Also the recent development in Enugu state, Afara and Ikwuano both in Abia state have caused more tension, havoc, pain and sadness in Biafra land.

My heart grieves with pain and sadness for the recent
incessant clashes between members of IPOB and Nigeria security agents including the Army, DSS, SARS and Air-force which had led to many deaths of IPOB members who are unarmed having a peaceful meeting. This represents the volume of IPOB members kidnapped and
killed un-noticed.

I humbly call on international body, peacemaking organisations, united nations and other organisations to come in and resolve the terror that is happening in Nigeria before another war will erupt.
