Typical Nigerians, intimidating and killing their fellow Nigerians unbehalf of their crooked politicians. What da hell is OPC members?

Sorry, i don't engage kids

ipobarethieves:
who are dey ? Call dem out make we sacrifice those strangers to the gods

willyo:


Is that why virtually all Nigerians holding positions of authority abuse them? I still can't put together the correlation between what I said and urs

Yes, that is why. You are correct.
This nation is best ruled by someone who either has no tribe here, (a foreigner), or a native indigene that will turn himself into a foreigner, forgetting about his tribe.
The current ruling class are unable to do this. Hence they always favour their tribe over others, to the annoyance of the rest of Nigerians.

This guy was my classmate in secondary school.
I guess you know him. Judo Champion of Nigeria. (Nobody could beat him in boarding house then).
More than half of my class ran overseas and married white women. They were raised by their parents to give up on Nigeria, because they can't handle the stress of being Nigerians.

Be wise, illiterates has taken over this platform

Don't judge a whole tribe simply because of individual opinion. Note that politicians laid tribalism foundation in this trap called country for their selfish interest. Now ask yourself, what is the population of politicians and their agents, and what is the population of neutral Nigerians.

Beware Nigerians. This is the time to know and understand the true identity of those who cause tribalism on here, they are paid agents, they are neither from east or west, some are not Nigerian. They have more than twenty monikers, they would create tribal related topics and make tribal comments with different monikers to cause chaos between southerners. Though, they have no conscience but you can try to educate them or better ignore them. They are easy to identify, use your head brothers.
They dominate this platform. They are evil and restless until their aim is achieved

It has gone beyond Alarming! Tech has allowed them to leave the realm of the unknown and join the world of the sane - they now have a voice and can see that violence has its paymasters

I wish they can be lock behind bars for ever...heartless monsters

Yoruba version of Fulani herdsmen.

Wicked souls. Awon ode.

OcVoice:
The guy is my friend's younger brother. He did nothing. They said he blocked the one way they wanted to pass. He didn't have space to move his car. They came down and started beating him. They stabbed him.

The worse is that the DPO of ilaje bariga police station is playing politics with this case. I've been trying to get in touch with segun awosika segalink, but he's not responding. Odumosu is fvcking lieing. This country is really messed up

every sane person can see that its sheer jealousy and envy that led those yoruba thugs and miscreants to attack and kill that innocent igbo guy. Bastard tribe of animalistic cowards. They probably wanted to steal his car after killing him.

Please make sure you do all you can tovsee tgat the coward yorooba DPo dont truncate the course of justice.

Since they are killers, I believe justice will be pass on them too for killing someone without fear, they will say is the devil hand work but they are the devil themselves. Let justice be pass on them too. I rest my case.

Okay

CHIDI TOCHI MURDERED BY THE OPPRESSION OF PEOPLE'S CONGRESS (OPC)*- Ooduwa people's Congress.
13th February, 2021 will never be forgotten by the Chidi's family, not because it was a day to the lovers Day- valantine's celebration but because it was the day they lost a very dear brother *Chidi Tochi* .Chidi Tochi was murdered by members of *Ooduwa people's Congress (OPC)* I have called them *Oppression of people's Congress* a group composed of non compos mentis because that is what they stand for.

On that faithful day 13th February 2021 at about 7.15pm, Mr chidi Tochi was returning from a wedding party in company of his friends in a car when death struck from this monstrous group. Oodua people's Congress.
There was a traffic gridlock at Temple street Bariga and Mr Tochi like every other good spirited Nigerian alighted from the car to help control traffic when this OPC boys came requesting his ordersity to keep them waiting on the queue. He politely asked them to be patient that it will get to their turn after all everybody cannot go at the same time. The guy said don't you know we are OPC and he said and so. That was all alas! They descended on him with matchets, knives and charms stabbing him serially. Even when he attempted to run they ran after him . Apparently lossing lots of blood he died at the hospital when rushed by people around. A woman who witnessed the incident said he died even before they came to carry him. Asking why he didn't get help on time, people who sells around the scene of the incident who equally gave an account of the incident said none of his friends could wait sighting the charms carried by the OPC boys they all took to their heels. It was after calm returned to the area they came to his rescue. Findings from the incident revealed that aside from the deceased Chidi Tochi three other persons were victims of this blood barthing group OPC and are hospitalised at different hospital. This is the true story of what happened on that faithful day according to an eye witness account.

Corroborating the neferous activities the OPC *refworld* an online resource media gave this *background studies* about OPC.
Background
Although banned by the Nigerian government in 1999 (Revolutionary and Dissident Movements of the World 2004, 361), the O'odua People's Congress (OPC) continues to operate in southwestern Nigeria (ibid.; Xinhua 8 Mar. 2006). The OPC, a nationalist Yoruba advocacy organization, was banned following its alleged involvement in "bloody clashes" in Lagos and surrounding states that reportedly led to "hundreds" of deaths (AFP 19 Dec. 2006; BBC 20 Dec. 2006). In 1999, the OPC split into two factions (GlobalSecurity.org 27 Apr. 2005; MIPT n.d.). The "parent" organization is led by the OPC's founder, Dr. Frederick Fasehun, and a more "militant" faction is led by Gani Adams (also referred to as Ganiyu Adams) (ibid.).
It further gave this information about the OPC:
*Treatment of OPC members by the authorities*
In 2005, Fasehun and Gani Adams were arrested and charged with belonging to an illegal organization among other offences (BBC 20 Dec. 2006; AFP 19 Dec. 2006), including illegal possession of firearms (ibid.; Xinhua 8 Mar. 2006). Four other OPC members were also arrested on similar charges (ibid.; This Day 7 Mar. 2006).

In March 2006, in an affidavit filed before the Federal High Court in Abuja concerning the trial of the six OPC members, the *Nigerian government described the OPC as "murderous, tribal and secessionist" and alleged that the group had killed and "maimed" more than 10,000 persons over the previous seven years* (This Day 7 Mar. 2006; Reuters 8 Mar. 2006; Xinhua 8 Mar. 2006). Fasehun denied the allegations (Vanguard 16 Mar. 2006). The affidavit was filed following a motion by the OPC members to have their trial transferred to southwestern Nigeria, where the organization's alleged offences occurred (ibid.; see also This Day 7 Mar. 2006); however, the Nigerian government claimed that if the trial were to be moved, persons involved in the trial, including the judge and witnesses, could be killed by OPC members (This Day 7 Mar. 2006; Reuters 8 Mar. 2006; Vanguard 16 Mar. 2006).
The senseless killing of innocent Nigerians by this monstrous group has continued unabated. The recent being the killing of Mr. Tochi Chidi a 35 year old married man and many others which are not reported. In a similar incident in 2013, at Ademolu street Bariga a street in the same neighborhood where this happened. This same group murdered one Udeme an undergraduate of Lagos state polytechnic (LASPOTEC) running away with his arm. This one too many of the evil of this OPC group. In saner climes, governments that are really incharge don't negotiate with life threatening groups like the OPC. The Government of Nigeria has continued to watch the unabated killings of innocent Nigerians by this group and has refused to do anything about it. It really shows that our government is innaundated by this group otherwise how can a proscribed group by a government still be operating and left to continue in existence.

*Refworld* further reported that the most widespread killings by the OPC took place in the context of clashes between Yoruba and other ethnic groups, which reached a peak during 2000; however, violence and human rights abuses continued in 2001 and 2002. There have also been numerous individual cases in which OPC members have killed or injured people, in the course of their vigilante work and in attempts to extort money. The OPC's activities have led them into direct confrontation with the police: there have been repeated, violent clashes between the two, with casualties on both sides. OPC members have attacked police stations on many occasions, and have killed and injured several policemen.
Part self-determination organization, part vigilante group, the OPC has defied easy classification. The usual description of the OPC as an ethnic militia, while accurate, is also misleading, in that not all the acts of violence committed by its members have been ethnically motivated. Many of the conflicts in which the OPC has got involved have been among Yoruba, and consequently victims of OPC violence have included Yoruba. The contrast between, on the one hand, the clearly articulated ideological discourse and sophisticated propaganda of some OPC leaders, and on the other hand, the mindless thuggery which characterizes many of its operations, has also posed a challenge in defining appropriate reactions to the organization. In a sense, the OPC combines aspects of two distinct types of organizations which have emerged in Nigeria: those which advocate for the specific interests of their particular ethnic, regional or religious group in a broadly political context and those which have taken on the task of fighting crime, without an explicit political agenda of their own. In addition, OPC members frequently carry out acts of intimidation and violence which appear to be motivated more by a desire to rob their victims of money or possessions, than by any ideological objective. All pointers to this group activities shows they have done more harm than good to the public.

In the foregoing, it is clear that whoever created this group meant more harm than good for Nigerians. The Nigerian government must nip the excesses of this group in the bud before its mindless descension to anarchy sets this nation ablaze. Just because some miscreants had guns knives and charms they now see themselves as Alfa and omega arrogating powers to themselves intimidating and killing at will. What a country?There was truly a country in the words of eminent writer, social critic late Emeritus professor Chinua Achebe.
Again there may be many other groups like this across the length and breadth of Nigeria operating like the OPC in the name of providing local security but in essence they are into many hideous activities like the OPC. The government as a matter of urgency should abruptly bring this groups to a miserable end before they become insurgent groups like the bokoharam which is what they are metamorphosising into. It is really unfortunate Mr Chidi Tochi died in the hands of this miscreants called OPC. Another opportunity to save the lives of Nigerians from many of this groups has presented itself, particularly the OPC whose activities has continued to attract public outcry.
According _Dietrich Bonhoeffer_ “ Silence in the face of evil is itself evil; God will not hold us guiltless, not to speak is to speak, not to act is to act”. *His Lordship Most Rev. George Jonathan Dodo, the Catholic Bishop of Zaria Diocese,* further corroborated this assertion when he said in the Daily strength devotional 10th anniversary special edition October –December, 2020 page iv *“ If we do not speak against evil, we will speak for evil when we remain silent in the face of it.Therefore, the world suffers today not because of the violence of bad people but because of the silence of good people”.*

The National Assembly both at state and federal level should beam their torch light on the activities of this group called the *Oodua people's Congress* particularly that many lives have been lost through their activities.
"Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter"... Every man must decide whether he will walk in the light of creative altruism or in the darkness of destructive selfishness... *Martin Luther*
"It is pardonable when children are afraid of darkness but it's a disaster when adults are afraid of light." - *Anonymous*
A million lies can never be equal to one truth. Truth will always prevail but it's a matter of time. Chidi Tochi was murdered in cold blood. The Federal Government of Nigeria, Lagos state Government Human right groups, opinion and other interest groups, security agencies, should investigate the circumstances leading to the death of Mr. Chidi Tochi in the hands of OPC and serve justice. Ohaneze ndigbo should not be mute on this matter, they should arise and ensure that this uoung man killed in his prime gets Justice. Mr Chidi Tochi 35, a native of umuokwe Awommama in oru east lga Imo state is a father of three aserve Justice on matter.
An evil to one is an evil to all. *It is Chidi Tochi today it could be another tomorrow.*
