BY SAHARAREPORTERS, NEW YORK AUG 23, 2020

Several persons were feared dead on Sunday when members of the Indigenous Peoples of Biafra and security agents clashed at Emene, Enugu State.

SaharaReporters gathered that trouble started at about 7:00am when some policemen invaded Community Secondary School in Emene where members of IPOB were meeting to disperse and arrest them.



It was learnt that the attempt was resisted, turning the encounter bloody with IPOB members reportedly overpowering the security operatives.



In a swift reaction, a large reinforcement of security agents was called and over a dozen patrol vans loaded with armed policemen, army and DSS personnel arrived at the scene and faced the Biafran agitators.





The number of casualties is not yet known as at the time of this report.

May the Lord have mercy on our nation.

THE WORLD KNOW THE REAL TERRORIST IN NIGERIA.


THEY ARE USUALLY ARMED WITH AK47, BE IT ARMY, POLICE OR FULANI HERDSMEN KILLING UNARMED PEOPLE, MAINLY CIVILIANS.


RIP TO THE DEAD.

What are the demerits of granting Igbos their wishes?

Why is it that everything with IPOB is usually peaceful until the security arrive, then it will turn violent?

When IPOB are left alone, everything is peaceful. Once the security forces land, there will be shootings and killings. Why? It becomes clear to anyone who has a brain that it is the security forces who are bringing violence into the IPOB matter. The same security that should be bringing peace are the ones bringing violence and death to unarmed people

They will never kill armed Heardsmen that are slaughtering people, they will never kill boko haram, they will never kill armed bandits

But as soon as they see unarmed IPOB, they will open fire

It should not be at the expense of people's lives.

Why proscribe them as a terrorist group but your Herdsmen and bandits are not proscribed yet....

It does not speak well of the Government and law enforcement officials at all. They should be seen to protect the lives of citizens and not deny them of their basic human rights.

Those who supported Obama should endorse what this Government is doing.

IPOB have been proscribed, why use that name again to carry out anything

Why not use diplomacy to get them to disperse or at worse just allow them finish their gathering.
When news of the deaths start spreading,instead of cowing other members,it would just harden them the more,besides increasing their otherwise neutral sympathizers.
What ilks people,despite their disagreement with IPOB's objectives is the double standards and hypocrisy displayed by the government.
You parley and pamper recognized,bloody thirsty terrorists and murder peaceful agitators.
You only garner more sympathy for IPOB

It was learnt that the attempt was resisted, turning the encounter bloody with IPOB members reportedly overpowering the security operatives

Those people should know that their group is currently proscribed...

But when will Nigeria security forces start to behave like human being...

Am 100 percent Biafran but engaging in a fight wit security personnel is a very wrong approach. I will join Biafran protest d very day Nnamdi Kanu cums bck nd leads frm d front but if not count me out#PROUDLYBIAFRAN#

They could have used other means to arrest but not to kill them.

We have a long way to go in handling protests especially when compared with the developed countries.

IPOB terrorists clash with police in Eungu. Some terrorists were killed in the process.

Front page pls
People must see this
The world must see it

It is inhumane.. They are human not animals


This govt is wicked and brutal..

I condemn this barbaric act

They should learn from Trump's administration in handling protesters.

If IPOB are terrorists what will you call Fulani herdsmen and Boko Haram, bandits?

Too much sense will not kill you. Who will be enjoying $80000 monthly IPOB fees if Nnamdi Kaun lead protest.

simple give us referendum let our people decide if they want one Nigeria or not ...is that too hard ?

What is wrong with the Nigerian police killing people for the slightest reason.

The end of Buhari is near.
The end Nigga area is nearer
Freedom comes with a lot of costs.
People will die,
People will survive.
This heroes have paid the ultimate price
Long live MNK
Long live lovers of freedom

Oh my God. Killing of innocent people has become a new normal in Nigeria or what?

You went to a school where a group of people were having a peaceful meeting and ended up killing many of them in cold blood.

It seems they're trying to make IPOB to take up arms.

They will pay for all these attrocities someday.

What do you think the law enforcement will do to us if we decide to peacefully protest that black lives matter?

This type of talk should not be encouraged since we know that most of you saying this will not be at the forefront dying at the hands of the law enforcers, it is the poor teenagers that are usually at the receiving end.

They have no reason to kill or maim civilians.

But these ones are jews. They came from Isreal.

Unless we realise that Obama's initiatives is what is making this proposal impossible we will keep on going round in circles.
