One thing about the igbos is that, they love themselves to an extent, when there tribesmen does something bad they will foolishly defend him unknowingly creating bad image for themselves. We all saw the way their leaders are saying they will sue Oloyede, its a fight against the igbos, raising lawyers to defend the criminal minded child. If truly their state government care about them, they should band her for 6 years for bringing bad reputation to Anambra. Now they are begging for criminal Nnamdi Kanu release ..

Pityoobi:
Una too dey over estimate una self. Na villagers for Alaigbo go buy computers abi? You said you are doing business, no be the same Yoruba people wey una hate dey buy una goods.. relocate your business to Anambra and see poverty dethrone you from the little grace you dey manage for Yoruba land.

Shebi una dey jump up and down with Llllppeee. The thing go clear for una eyes very soon. You can't challenge your host and landlords to a superiority fight and go back home to sleep in his house. You have all bitten more than you can chew and I tell you, the results will be devastating. This is just a taste of what's to come.

MadarasBlade:
We igbos need to be smarter when investing next time, it's time to think back home. The wise ones
Will hear my words clearly, what happened this last election was an eye opener.

kpompey:
Report showed that the government had consistently asked them to leave the place for over 8 years. Some bigots are claiming Igbos are the target. So government should not be responsible.

I initially thought "this guy is allowing his channel to be used to peddle rubbish" after reading the headline...but frankly, his line of thought is valid.

Well, unless someone committed a crime in the city and based on identity theft, it was logged with his name.

Wondering why now or did he change the same passport he has been using? This thief Tinubu-APC-UK-IMMIGRATION should stop bringing PO to public ridicule and focus how to save their colonised state from being a world drug hub headed by a drug baron. The more dirts they throw on PO, the cleaner he becomes

dapsoneh:
Yes na, they have been shown yellow card. Next won't be funny. You don't take the benevolence and magnanimity of a tribe for granted. The gentility of a tiger while lying down is not a reflection of it's timidity. You don't take the liberal attitude of the Yorubas for granted. We are very accommodating people but don't take us for a ride.
What Chukudi , Chigozie will not take in Anambra will not be tolerated in Lagos
Lesson learnt by them#

SangoOlukosoOba:
That is the plan!

Anambra and Abia will align against all other SE states and hold-on to power

Imo and Ebonyi will be the least class of Igbo`s in their Banana republic

Enugu will just be in isolation from their power tussle as they are far more enlightened and vast.

Anambra and Abia have dominance traits in them and that will lead to the cause of their civil war. It will be 3 states against 2

Meanwhile, Nigerian police are useless!

This was exacly what caused problem between the police and OPC in the 90s, for those of us that witnessed it. It was not a good time to be a police man in the west then, even the military government of Abacha couldn't stop them, I hope history will not repeat itself this time around bcs these OPC guys are monsters.

*CHIDI TOCHI MURDERED BY THE OPPRESSION OF PEOPLE'S CONGRESS (OPC)*- Ooduwa people's Congress.
13th February, 2021 will never be forgotten by the Chidi's family, not because it was a day to the lovers Day- valantine's celebration but because it was the day they lost a very dear brother *Chidi Tochi* .Chidi Tochi was murdered by members of *Ooduwa people's Congress (OPC)* I have called them *Oppression of people's Congress* a group composed of non compos mentis because that is what they stand for.

On that faithful day 13th February 2021 at about 7.15pm, Mr chidi Tochi was returning from a wedding party in company of his friends in a car when death struck from this monstrous group. Oodua people's Congress.
There was a traffic gridlock at Temple street Bariga and Mr Tochi like every other good spirited Nigerian alighted from the car to help control traffic when this OPC boys came requesting his ordersity to keep them waiting on the queue. He politely asked them to be patient that it will get to their turn after all everybody cannot go at the same time. The guy said don't you know we are OPC and he said and so. That was all alas! They descended on him with matchets, knives and charms stabbing him serially. Even when he attempted to run they ran after him . Apparently lossing lots of blood he died at the hospital when rushed by people around. A woman who witnessed the incident said he died even before they came to carry him. Asking why he didn't get help on time, people who sells around the scene of the incident who equally gave an account of the incident said none of his friends could wait sighting the charms carried by the OPC boys they all took to their heels. It was after calm returned to the area they came to his rescue. Findings from the incident revealed that aside from the deceased Chidi Tochi three other persons were victims of this blood barthing group OPC and are hospitalised at different hospital. This is the true story of what happened on that faithful day according to an eye witness account.

Corroborating the neferous activities the OPC *refworld* an online resource media gave this *background studies* about OPC.
Background
Although banned by the Nigerian government in 1999 (Revolutionary and Dissident Movements of the World 2004, 361), the O'odua People's Congress (OPC) continues to operate in southwestern Nigeria (ibid.; Xinhua 8 Mar. 2006). The OPC, a nationalist Yoruba advocacy organization, was banned following its alleged involvement in "bloody clashes" in Lagos and surrounding states that reportedly led to "hundreds" of deaths (AFP 19 Dec. 2006; BBC 20 Dec. 2006). In 1999, the OPC split into two factions (GlobalSecurity.org 27 Apr. 2005; MIPT n.d.). The "parent" organization is led by the OPC's founder, Dr. Frederick Fasehun, and a more "militant" faction is led by Gani Adams (also referred to as Ganiyu Adams) (ibid.).
It further gave this information about the OPC:
*Treatment of OPC members by the authorities*
In 2005, Fasehun and Gani Adams were arrested and charged with belonging to an illegal organization among other offences (BBC 20 Dec. 2006; AFP 19 Dec. 2006), including illegal possession of firearms (ibid.; Xinhua 8 Mar. 2006). Four other OPC members were also arrested on similar charges (ibid.; This Day 7 Mar. 2006).

In March 2006, in an affidavit filed before the Federal High Court in Abuja concerning the trial of the six OPC members, the *Nigerian government described the OPC as "murderous, tribal and secessionist" and alleged that the group had killed and "maimed" more than 10,000 persons over the previous seven years* (This Day 7 Mar. 2006; Reuters 8 Mar. 2006; Xinhua 8 Mar. 2006). Fasehun denied the allegations (Vanguard 16 Mar. 2006). The affidavit was filed following a motion by the OPC members to have their trial transferred to southwestern Nigeria, where the organization's alleged offences occurred (ibid.; see also This Day 7 Mar. 2006); however, the Nigerian government claimed that if the trial were to be moved, persons involved in the trial, including the judge and witnesses, could be killed by OPC members (This Day 7 Mar. 2006; Reuters 8 Mar. 2006; Vanguard 16 Mar. 2006).
The senseless killing of innocent Nigerians by this monstrous group has continued unabated. The recent being the killing of Mr. Tochi Chidi a 35 year old married man and many others which are not reported. In a similar incident in 2013, at Ademolu street Bariga a street in the same neighborhood where this happened. This same group murdered one Udeme an undergraduate of Lagos state polytechnic (LASPOTEC) running away with his arm. This one too many of the evil of this OPC group. In saner climes, governments that are really incharge don't negotiate with life threatening groups like the OPC. The Government of Nigeria has continued to watch the unabated killings of innocent Nigerians by this group and has refused to do anything about it. It really shows that our government is innaundated by this group otherwise how can a proscribed group by a government still be operating and left to continue in existence.

*Refworld* further reported that the most widespread killings by the OPC took place in the context of clashes between Yoruba and other ethnic groups, which reached a peak during 2000; however, violence and human rights abuses continued in 2001 and 2002. There have also been numerous individual cases in which OPC members have killed or injured people, in the course of their vigilante work and in attempts to extort money. The OPC's activities have led them into direct confrontation with the police: there have been repeated, violent clashes between the two, with casualties on both sides. OPC members have attacked police stations on many occasions, and have killed and injured several policemen.
Part self-determination organization, part vigilante group, the OPC has defied easy classification. The usual description of the OPC as an ethnic militia, while accurate, is also misleading, in that not all the acts of violence committed by its members have been ethnically motivated. Many of the conflicts in which the OPC has got involved have been among Yoruba, and consequently victims of OPC violence have included Yoruba. The contrast between, on the one hand, the clearly articulated ideological discourse and sophisticated propaganda of some OPC leaders, and on the other hand, the mindless thuggery which characterizes many of its operations, has also posed a challenge in defining appropriate reactions to the organization. In a sense, the OPC combines aspects of two distinct types of organizations which have emerged in Nigeria: those which advocate for the specific interests of their particular ethnic, regional or religious group in a broadly political context and those which have taken on the task of fighting crime, without an explicit political agenda of their own. In addition, OPC members frequently carry out acts of intimidation and violence which appear to be motivated more by a desire to rob their victims of money or possessions, than by any ideological objective. All pointers to this group activities shows they have done more harm than good to the public.

In the foregoing, it is clear that whoever created this group meant more harm than good for Nigerians. The Nigerian government must nip the excesses of this group in the bud before its mindless descension to anarchy sets this nation ablaze. Just because some miscreants had guns knives and charms they now see themselves as Alfa and omega arrogating powers to themselves intimidating and killing at will. What a country?There was truly a country in the words of eminent writer, social critic late Emeritus professor Chinua Achebe.
Again there may be many other groups like this across the length and breadth of Nigeria operating like the OPC in the name of providing local security but in essence they are into many hideous activities like the OPC. The government as a matter of urgency should abruptly bring this groups to a miserable end before they become insurgent groups like the bokoharam which is what they are metamorphosising into. It is really unfortunate Mr Chidi Tochi died in the hands of this miscreants called OPC. Another opportunity to save the lives of Nigerians from many of this groups has presented itself, particularly the OPC whose activities has continued to attract public outcry.
According _Dietrich Bonhoeffer_ “ Silence in the face of evil is itself evil; God will not hold us guiltless, not to speak is to speak, not to act is to act”. *His Lordship Most Rev. George Jonathan Dodo, the Catholic Bishop of Zaria Diocese,* further corroborated this assertion when he said in the Daily strength devotional 10th anniversary special edition October –December, 2020 page iv *“ If we do not speak against evil, we will speak for evil when we remain silent in the face of it.Therefore, the world suffers today not because of the violence of bad people but because of the silence of good people”.*

The National Assembly both at state and federal level should beam their torch light on the activities of this group called the *Oodua people's Congress* particularly that many lives have been lost through their activities.
"Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter"... Every man must decide whether he will walk in the light of creative altruism or in the darkness of destructive selfishness... *Martin Luther*
"It is pardonable when children are afraid of darkness but it's a disaster when adults are afraid of light." - *Anonymous*
A million lies can never be equal to one truth. Truth will always prevail but it's a matter of time. Chidi Tochi was murdered in cold blood. The Federal Government of Nigeria, Lagos state Government Human right groups, opinion and other interest groups, security agencies, should investigate the circumstances leading to the death of Mr. Chidi Tochi in the hands of OPC and serve justice. Ohaneze ndigbo should not be mute on this matter, they should arise and ensure that this young man killed in his prime gets Justice. Mr Chidi Tochi 35, a native of umuokwe Awommama in oru east lga Imo state is a father of three. Our father President Mohamadu Buhari should come to the aid of this young man's death and ensure he gets justice. PMB must truly protect our lives as Nigerians from this demonic, blood thirsty, blood barthing and monstrous groups like the Oodua people's Congress-OPC. He promised to secure our lives and another opportunity to do that is now. Justice must be served on this matter.
An evil to one is an evil to all. *It was someone else yesterday, it is Chidi Tochi today, it could be another tomorrow.*
*#JUSTICEFORCHIDITOCHINOW*
*#END OPC BRUTALITY NOW*
Adieu Mr Chidi Tochi.
