We Arrested Nollywood Actor, Chinwetalu Agu For Soliciting Support For IPOB - Nigerian Army


The Nigerian Army has accused popular Nollywood Actor, Chinwetaluagu Agu of soliciting support for the proscribed Indegenous People of Biafra, IPOB.

In a statement obtained by IGBERE TV, signed by Onyema Nwachukwu, Brigadier General Director Army Public Relations said
troops of Nigerian Army(NA) " arrested one Chiwetalu Agu while inciting members of the public and soliciting for support for the proscribed Indegenous People of Biafra (IPOB). Dressed in a very well known attire of the proscribed group, Chiwetalu Agu was picked up for questioning while inciting members of the public to join the proscribed group. Though he attempted puting up some resistance when troops made effort to take him into custody, he was not assaulted or subjected to brutalization."

According to the statement," While the NA recognizes the inalienable rights of the citizenry to freedom of movement and expression as enshrined in the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, it is apparently a violation for any individual or group to incite the public to cause mayhem or break down of law and order. It is therefore pertinent to state that while exercising such freedoms, it must be done within the confines of the law, bearing in mind the imperative for peace, and national security."

"For the avoidance of doubt and emphasis, the Indigenous People of Biafra(IPOB) remains proscribed . Therefore, any individual or group seen to be projecting and advancing the cause or activities of the group is viewed as brazenly challenging the constitutionality of Federal Republic of Nigeria. More worrisome, was the fact that considering the prevailing security situation of the region, coupled with the ongoing Exercise GOLDEN DAWN , his action could be a tacit endorsement and support for the proscribed group. We have all witnessed the activities of the group take a violent dimension in recent times."

"Chinwetalu Agu has clearly demonstrated uncharitable disposition to negate peace and security in the region, hence, he is taken into custody for preliminary investigation. It is important to once again place on record that the allegation that he was brutalized is false and should be disregarded accordingly."

"While the NA would not allow IPOB and its sponsors to hold the region captive and allow the security situation to degenerate, it is instructive to restate that national interest supercedes any parochial consideration. Individuals or groups who fan the embers of violence are warned to desist or face the consequences of their actions. The ongoing Exercises are on course and will rid the region of all forms of criminality."

"The peace loving and law abiding people of the South East are enjoined to please
go about their normal activities, as efforts are ongoing to bring perpetrators of violence to book. They are equally urged to continue to support the security agencies to restore normalcy to the region in furtherance of peace."

Did you get any arrest Warrant for him and when Did Biafra become synonymous with IPOB isn't Biafra same as Eastern Nigeria, and if you arrest all regional platforms what is Arewa and Oduduwa still doing in the Nigerian sphere up to the point that Oduduwa anthem is sang in the West,

You guys are setting a very dangerous president that might lead to total eradication of any regional insignia or even culture including the eradication of indigenous languages If some more extreme individuals take power, Biafra is our regional identity, we the Children of Biafra deserve that piece of heritage

The man has you right where he wants you. In the spotlight.

Chinwetalu agu acted so foolish and stupid. Very stupid of him. I thought his nzuzu was only on Nollywood, didn't know it was natural.

Ipob-unknown gunmen banned Nigeria flag in SE. If you are seen with the flag or anything of such you will be killed...by unknown Gunmen.

Nigeria Government proscribed Ipob as a terrorist organization which they are anyway and known Soldiers arrested Agu for disturbing public peace, Igbos are crying and lamenting as usual.

Their actions are good but that of others are not good...Is there any better definition of stupidity than this?

Meanwhile the military clinic should check whether chinwetalu agu is mentally okay before detaining him because no sane human with the high rate of insecurity in anambra for now and with operation golden dawn on will embark on such stupid clout chasing.

Nonsense and Ingredient.

can't do without bleating can you?

so the video we saw was photoshoped as we did not see him gathering people to solicit their support, he only wore a cloth. the truth is that these military behaviour is actually giving the whole thing popularity most especially when we also know how you treat book haram, "bandit" and fulani who have being tagged internationally as terrorist only after al qaeda

Hmmmm
