Police Kills Ikonso, Commander Of IPOB Insurgents In Imo Attack by Whiteangel1234: 4:04pm On Apr 24, 2021
Operatives of the Nigeria Police Force and their counterparts from the Nigerian Army and DSS in a joint operation, in the early hours of today 24th April, 2021 stormed the operational headquarters of Insurgents (IPOB Militias) in Awomama Village Oru East LGA of Imo State.

The Insurgents are responsible for the attack on the Imo State Police Headquarters and the headquarters of the Nigerian Correctional Service on 5th April, 2021. They have also carried out series of calculated, violent attacks on security personnel and formations in the south east and south south of the country.

As the security forces approached the base of the insurgents, they came under rapid fire from the group. In a bold and clinical response, the joint security forces fought back gallantly.

The Forces eventually neutralized the overall commander of the insurgents in the Southeast popularly known as Ikonso Commander and six (6) other armed fighters of the insurgent group. Commander Ikonso is known as the Vice President designate as well as the coordinator of all the militia operations of the group.

He was the mastermind and coordinator of the attack on the Imo Police Headquarters and several other attacks on security and military personnel and facilities.

The operation is part of deliberate effort by the Police and other security forces to quel the activities of insurgents in Imo State and other States of the South East and South South region of the country.

After the fierce gun battle, the security team recovered the remains of Ikonso Commander and the six (6) of his fighters. Several sophisticated weapons including six(6) AK47 rifles, hundreds of ammunition of different caliber and lots of charms including bullet Proof charms were recovered from the insurgents.

At the time of filing this report, three policemen and one army officer are receiving treatment having sustained serious bullet injuries during exchange of gunfire with the insurgents.

The whole South should join hands to fight against these Fulani Military because after defeating IPOB they will be coming for Niger Deltans and Yorubas.

They have already carved out the Yoruba territories they are interested in.

At first, they said they were protecting their forest from killer herdsmen... And it was kind of cool...not until they started attacking security personnel and facilities ... I just hope the new security outfit created by the south east governors will be able to tackle the activities of killer herdsmen and kidnappers

And as for IPOB, no sane human will support their recent activities against security personnel

Hehehe. Nigerian police and their unsavoury claims. This was how they claimed they gunned down 12 ESN operatives and just two days after UGM attacked Imo state prison.

I'm not saying anything oh, but I would rather believe this news with pinch of salt.

Stop smoking that shit. Even if this news is true (which I'm sure it isn't), the military will never tell you how many of their men UGM killed.

Nothing to celebrate here, all hell is about to break out in the east. Remember this is how Boko Haram terror expanded across the whole Northern Nigeria. The army killed their leader and the rest is history.

I feel sorry for the innocent families of the soldiers that will be experiencing mayhem soon..
