Igbo Council Launches Operation Lion Walk Against Killer Herdsmen by Nwanyiogwashi(f): 6:33pm On Jun 15, 2020
By Chinonso Alozie – Owerri

The Igbo National Council, INC, Monday said that it has launched Operation Lion Walk to take over the forest as against the continued reported killings by armed herdsmen in Igboland.

The President of INC, in Owerri, Chilos Godsent, disclosed this after he said that the launching of the operation lion walk, followed the quit notice they earlier issued to armed herdsmen in Igboland last month.

In INC statement, “You will remember that on Thursday, May 21st 2020, theIgbo National Council(INC) worldwide rose from a crucial national stakeholders meeting where we x-rayed the security situation in Nigeria more especially as it affected the Igbo Nation.

“Consequently, we issued a twenty-one (21) days quit notice to the dreaded jihadists killer herdsmen who were criminally occupying our farmlands and forests, plundering them and also raping and killing our women and men of decent blood.

“In deviance to this quit notice, the jihadists killer herdsmen have continued to attack communities inBenue, Enugu, Ebonyi, Anambra and the Imo states respectively.

On Friday 12th June 2020, a group of jihadists killer herdsmen who were still hiding in some forests in Oguta Local Government Area of Imo State attacked and brutally killed a man in cool blood at Mbano Autonomous Community in Agwa clan, Oguta LGA Imo State and flee away.

“The INC viewed this deliberate attack on our people at Mbano Autonomous Community, Oguta, LGA as an affront on the Igbo Nation and a sign of vulnerability ofsome communities in the Igbo Nation.

”The Igbo group further called on “all the town unions, traditional rulers and youth organisations of communities of the Igbo Nation that has not constituted their vigilante groups to immediately do so and quickly commence the combing of their community farmlands and forests to fish out and flush out remnants of these criminal elements who are still hiding in some of our forests waiting for order to attack and attempt to invade Igbo land.

“We, therefore, must rise up now totake our destinies into our own hands more especially now that it looks like many of the governors ofthe Igbo National States of the Igbo Nation and our legislators have compromised the security and welfare of our people in exchange for political patronage.

“We, therefore, commend and support the boldness of Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe of Abia South and the Executive Chairman of the Oshimili North Local Government Area (LGA) of Delta State for rising up in defence of their people in the face of this unprovoked senseless criminal attack of the Igbo Nation by the jihadists killer herdsmen.

We stand shoulder to shoulder withyou in this liberation struggle.“Noting that lions are the kings of the forests, we, therefore, have resolved to release our brave lions to take possession of their kingdoms and flush out every criminal element they may find in their kingdoms who has preferred to live in the forests rather than living in human houses.

“Cognisance of our Rights to Self-determination, this 15th day ofJune 2020, the Igbo National Council (INC) worldwide hereby launches “Operation Lion Walk” throughout the territories of the Igbo Nation.

“This operation is aimed at fishing out and flushing out every criminal element who are criminally hiding in, or occupying our farmlands and forests using same as hide outs to commit sacrilege against the Igbo Nation.

”Vanguard

A most welcome development. No group should have monopoly of violence. If the government has failed then regions are left with no option than to protect themselves.

By 2023, that's if Nigeria is still standing by then, different warlords will be in control of communities and regions.

Anarchy looms large in the horizon and there seems to be no remedy in sight.

Check recent history. We know how we roll in the East. I was in Aba in 2001 and the retaliation was horrible. I had to stop eating suya because I couldn't differentiate it from burning cardavars on the streets.

Don't worry, if there is any region that has all it takes to counter these barbarians successfully, then it's Igbos. We are lucky to be homogeneous ethnically and religious wise unlike every other region.

By the way, I heard that Asaba is always a place of refuge when trouble makers are chased out of Onitsha.

You guys need to up your game too.

They run to Asaba because Asaba is administrative area but they don't try nonsense with Oko people and illah people.

It's illegal if it's not passed into law but of course, except its just another local hunter or vigilante group.
