Governor Uzodimma of Imo State has began sending relief items to Izombe people whose community was burnt and destroyed by the Nigerian Army two weeks ago. The Governor doled out sleeping beds, food items and cash to Izombe people, many of whom had been left homeless as rampaging Nigerian Soldiers burnt down or destroyed virtually every house in the community

In the video below, an indigene of the community narrated to a BBC Reporter how an arguement over N2000 led to Soldiers burning Izombe community down. According to him, some youths of the community had constituted themselves in 'tax collectors' collecting money from oil Tankers engaged in oil bunkering that passed through the community. The youths would then 'settle' Soldiers to look the other way.

Trouble started when an argument between two group of youths on how to share N2000. One of the youths called his Army friend on the phone to come into the matter, and when the Soldiers arrived, things got worse. One of the Soldiers then shot and killed an Izombe guy, which caused the restive youths to disarm and lynch the Soldiers.

When reinforcement Soldiers arrived Izombe and saw their comrades dead, they went about burning every house down. Another Izombe indigene also told how when the Soldiers got tired of burning houses down, they went to a restaurant which the owner had fled in the mayhem, brough out the pot of food, ate to their fill, then burnt the restaurant before they finally left.

The Nigerian Army spokesman, Brigadier Nwankwo, would later claim that it was IPOB that burnt Izombe down, and not Soldiers

It should be noted that it was Governor Uzodimma who invited Soldiers into his state

Nigeria is a joke

Of what use? U kill person, still give his dead body food to eat

This man thinks the people of Izombe are like the Chicken Stalin used to describe human stupidity.
"pluck their feathers, throw some grains and they will be grovelling for you"

Mr Supreme, just know that you can't bribe us with your 30 tubers of yam and 23 bags of rotten rice. We know what you did.

Your Terrorist army killed the youths of Izombe and burnt almost all their houses

He sent rice and yam but refused to condemn the actions of the military. This is just feasting on the corpse of slain izombe youths. These items should be sent back to Uzodimma

The rice and yam is for the burial of the deceased, this country is in mess

The nerve sha. These Nigerian politicians don't see the masses as humans with common sense.

The Nigerian army operation is not different from that of Boko Haram. The Nigerian army is always very brutal and gallant when dealing with unarmed civilians... But when this same soldiers are to fight "ordinary" Boko Haram, you will start seeing them wailing about been under equipped

Lobatan

Wise of him. He doesn't want a repeat of what happened in orlu because it is this kind of actions by the military that attracts unknown gunmen.

It is their money! They should accept it.

From the last picture, is it not obvious that the villagers are not happy ?
Even after those bags of rice and rubbers of yam?
You want to use food to lure them to forget your stupidity.
Rebuild the whole houses that was destroyed by the troops, start from there before thinking of how to bribe them with food
Let’s assume the saying “the dead cannot rise again”
Start your sympathy (if there’s any) by rebuilding the whole houses that was burnt by Nigerian soldiers!!!

As if its not the same government that invited them in the first place!



May Alusi okija forbid APC from wining Anambra State.

IDP things..

Condemn the military, who invited them in the first place?

imolites will never forgive Uzodinma and his generation

Bastard. Will you bring our brothers and sisters back. Uzodinjo, you have sinned greatly against us. Mkpuru onye kuru ka oga hota!

What a shameless and very useless puppet. He couldn't question the army or call them out for committing crimes against humanity but will quietly bring in worthless relief materials.

What a very humble and loyal slave!!!

Look at this man!!!


You're deploying carrot and stick approach on your people.

You invite the military on your people, and later you send relief materials to them. These politicians are very heartless.

Posterity will surely have the last say!

Stomach infrastructure ... Sending relief items on the eve of election

The foolish Governor that started all this madness.



If he didn't invite Soldiers and fighter jets to bomb ESN camp,all this may not have happen.





He will still pay for his evil actions.

If only they can send it back as a form of protest
