Nigeria: Robbers Lay Siege On Imo Communities

INDIGENES of Mgbidi, Otulu, Amiri and some other communities in Oru East and West local government areas of Imo State are now living in fear as armed robbers have overrun their communities, intimidating, harassing, stealing and raping women at will.

At the last count, several private homes, business outfits and even hospitals fell to the brute force of the rampaging armed robbers, who were said to be wielding varying types of sophisticated guns. A woman, who spoke to Vanguard on strict grounds of anonymity, lamented that women and their daughters were subjected to the ordeal of being attacked while their husbands and children were forced to watch as the robbers took their turns in the sexual orgy.


The woman recounted how a young man who returned from the United States of America decided to come out of hiding instead of loosing his 96 year-old father (names withheld). "They similarly did the same thing to Dr. Theodore Okechukwu, who also came back from the United States of America, as well as Chief Stephen Onyemaobi, whose son equally returned from overseas", the woman said.

According to her, Chief Ignatius Awobue was roundly dispossessed of his personal effects and his brother, Nnamdi Christopher Awobue, was seriously beaten. Feelers from the town is that these people have since gone back to their bases overseas and sworn never to come back or encourage anybody to come back or invest in the state. While Chief Joshua Okereke had reportedly been robbed more than two times, the robbers however visited Chief Anaekwe more than four times. Similarly, all the companies located in the two local council areas of the state have started making frantic efforts to close shop and relocate to safer grounds, if nothing was done immediately to guard lives and property.

To tell you guys how proud i am to be an IGBO(Nwa afor) i will from tomorrow change my surname to IGBO, All ministries in Nigeria and else where take note. Aha anyi agaghi efu.

 ;d ;d ;d

There is a Coca Cola Bottling plant right at bridge head Onitsha. You want more beverages?

ABA4 Life,

This is not true.  There are many assortments of Jews left in Africa. Including different types of Jews within Nigeria and near by countries.

And in particular the Lemba Jews, who have already been DNA tested and are confirmed to come from the Levites and other Jews.

when ever i hear about africans claiming these jews to me its an attempt to say that the negro people were not self sustained, and all there arcitecture came from other places

so i don't believe about all these people claiming jewish origin

 

 and so our discussion ends.

nothing spoil.

Igbos are The true son of the soil.
Histroy has shown that Igbos are the true indigien of Naija, as all the other major tribes can be traced outside the country.
why won't they be proud?
