Soldiers Kill 3 Unknown Gunmen On Okija-Onitsha Expressway, 1 Soldier Killed by HonNL: 10:37am On Oct 09, 2021
TROOPS' NEUTRALISE THREE UNKNOWN GUNMEN IN A SHOOTOUT

Troops of Sector 5 of Exercise GOLDEN DAWN deployed in Enugu, have neutralised three unknown gunmen who attacked a Nigerian Police checkpoint along Okija-Onitsha expressway on 7 October 2021.

The gallant troops engaged and overwhelmed the gunmen with superior firepower, forcing them to flee the scene. Troops however gave them a hot pursuit, and engaged the gunmen in a gun duel.

The 3 gunmen, who drove in 2 Vehicles ( a Hilux and Hummer bus), eventually succumbed to troops' effective firepower, while others fled with gunshot wounds.

Troops also recovered one vehicle and 2 motorcycles, while conducting further exploitation of the general area for the fleeing terrorists.

Unfortunately, a soldier paid the supreme price, in the line of duty, for his country.

The Chief of Army Staff Commends the troops for the feat and urges them to sustain the momentum against all criminal elements operating in the region. The COAS also sympathises with the family of the fallen hero and prays for the repose of his soul.

Innocent youth that can shoot back? Are they using their dicks?

Think! So many people are blinded by sentiments that they find it hard to recognize the truth...

They are killing innocent youth ? What is innocent youth doing with a machine gun biko?

I heard the incident happened 4 days ago... Ihiala was on fire as people ran for their lives... Nigerian soldiers are not giving us true account of what happened..

Because the information we heard was that there was temple run everywhere including soldiers and policemen

About 70% of victims of internal crisis are victims of the brutality of coercive instruments of the state. Come down to the North you eyes will open to the reality that the activities of bandits & herdmen are after all backed by some rogue elements in the military.

No outsider can come into the Southeast to perpetrate acts of violence without internal support.

These gunmen have internal support in the southeast and the people seem to be playing along.

IPOB lost the plot finally when they started arming criminals to fight on their behalf.

How long did IPOB leadership think they would be able to control them before they turned rougue?

For me community criminals are behind the destruction of community property even if they are not they are in collabo with outsiders &both are agents of the rentier elites. But most victims are innocent persons who are caught in the cross fire. Some are arrested &forced to lie only for the truth to come out. Alot of this we saw in imo State under the former CP and they called it collateral damage.
