Glory Okolie Detained For ‘Being Girlfriend Of IPOB Member’ - IGP Orders Probe by AprokoGirl: 1:46pm On Aug 20, 2021
Usman Baba, inspector-general of police, has ordered an investigation into the alleged detention of Glory Okolie, a 21-year-old woman by officers of the Intelligence Response Team (IRT) in Imo state.

Okolie was said to have been arrested on June 17 by IRT officers in order to use her as bait to arrest her boyfriend who is suspected to be a member of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).

The family of the young lady had been searching for her.

Harrison Gwamnishu, an activist and director-general of Behind Bars Human Rights Foundation, in a Facebook post, said it was later discovered that Okolie was in the custody of IRT in Imo allegedly cooking and washing for the officers.

Gwamnishu accused the police of extorting the family when they went to ask for her bail. He said Okolie was later transferred to Abuja.

“21-year-old Miss Glory Okolie who enrolled for 2021 JAMB exam has been in police detention since 17th June, 2021 till date. She left the house and never returned,” the activist wrote on Facebook. Weekly Prayers

“Since 17th June, her families had searched for her in hospitals and mortuaries but couldn’t find her.

“Ending of June, 2021, a young man who was freed from IRT office Tiger Base Owerri told the Okolie family that he saw Glory in the custody of IRT officers cooking and washing clothes for them.

“The family immediately went to IRT office and requested to see Glory and bail her out and till date it’s been one story or the other. The IRT officers allegedly continued to extort the family and denied them access to see Glory.”

Speaking with the Punch, the activist said his team met with Olatunji Disu, the newly-appointed IRT boss, on Thursday, but the police could not link the lady with any offence aside being the girlfriend of a suspected member of IPOB.

“The office is cooperating with us. The current head of the unit said he just resumed and that the IG commissioned a committee to look into people arrested for IPOB issues after the Glory story went viral. The committee is already profiling the suspects,” Gwamnishu said.

“They are many; they are more than 100 and they are interviewing them. We learnt the committee will give a report tomorrow morning and we were told to come and pick the girl by 11am.”

Recently, Amnesty International said it documented 52 incidents of unlawful killing and 62 cases of arbitrary arrest and torture carried out by security operatives from January, 2021 in the south-east.

Please is the IRT a terrorist unit or a police unit? I'm asking for a friend. Looks like these IRT are even worst than SARS shocked. Illegally detained for over a month with no offense committed, detained just for allegedly being a friend to an IPOB member. Doesn't the law say it is illegal to detain a suspect beyond 48hrs without charging them to court? What has this country turned into for God's sake; is there no evil the Nigerian govt won't commit against its own citizens?

The police force, which is supposed to uphold the law and ensure order, are the very ones pissing all over it.

They kidnapped a girl on the basis that she's "dating an ipob member". They didn't inform her family, they didn't try her in a court of law. They just turned her to a slave and kept her for over two months. How are these so-called law enforcement agents any different from Fulani terrorists/bandits?

Oga o. The rot has eaten deep into this system, there's no salvaging it. We need a referendum...so everybody can start afresh.

What these Terrorist Nigerian Barbarians do in Igboland now is that when they see any beautiful Igbo lady with big ynash, they will kidnap her on grounds that she or her grand father, father, brother, husband or boyfriend is an IPOB member then rape her.

IRT us a terrorist organisation led by Abba Kyari. Imo state was a money spinner for them. Killer innocent people, placing guns on them and tagging the IPOB so as to decieve people that they are working

Those they dont kill, they quickly transfer to Abuja to get their relatives to pay through the nose for their release

The earlier we get it right in this country the better for us. You arrested someone because her crime was been a girlfriend to suspected ipob member. How does that make any sense? Nigeria is badly run honestly.

In other words,
Date a guy that if you have a quarrel, that he will take you out to eat correct Barbecue or any place to have a nice meal,
Not the one that if you have an argument will be threatening you with words like " you know how many girls wey I don cut dem heads for dis town?
You know how many people our mazi don say make we kill, you think say the 2000 heads wey him talk na seresere?, oloriburuku kinda boyfriend.
You better comport make I no scatter your face for ya mama".
Never go out with a bastard swine.
Never go out with a terrorist.
