Yours is a good account of what happened in Obigbo.
I live in Portharcourt, close to Artillery junction and remember how northern youths blocked the Aba road from UBA down to Oil mill. Those of them who tried venturing into Elelenwo were beaten mercilessly. From that moment I knew army would be involved in the matter sooner.
The killing of security personnel in Obigbo started about two weeks before the endsars protest with the cold blood murder of a SARS operative. With some hoodlums in that area making some bold statements like, "we don't want to see SARS here". SARS retaliated in a cool covert manner, the residents went to plead with them. That matter was under management before the riot broke out.
Actually there had been some elements who because of the nature of Obigbo had taken that as safe haven. Surely these people are not IPOB since they never carried out their activities under the umbrella. I strongly suspect there is a criminal cell operating in that area that are not comfortable with security personnel presence.
Army were right to move in, but the way they went about killing at random and house to house picking of young people without any form of investigation was unprofessional and a pure work of unchecked emotions

The world is in shock as its supposedly greatest democracy appears to be falling apart before our very eyes.

President Trump has just given a stunning speech trashing the US presidential elections as massively rigged, and claiming victory for himself, with millions of votes yet to be counted.

This is the type of thing the USA sends 'election observers' around the world to guard against.

This is the type of thing the USA imposes sanctions on other nations for doing.

Trump's speech is likely to rouse millions of his supporters, many of whom are armed, and could lead to mass riots and social unrest.

Are we witnessing the fall of Babylon the Great?

Are we witnessing the beginning of the end of western civilization?

The northern leaders comprising governors, senators, ranking monarchs and other upper class folks gathered in Kaduna few days ago.

Their purpose was post-mortem of #ENDSARS. They spared no harsh words for the protest organisers and participants.

They congratulated themselves for using ethnicity, religion, and other forms of bigotry to discourage northern youths from partaking of the protest.

In fact, they believed the protest was to topple President Buhari from power.

To say the least, the communique of the northern leaders left many of us shocked.

Here are the people who called the shots in northern Nigeria spewing a perfect error in terms of what was clearly a spontaneous revolt of our suffering youths. Their resolution implied that it was a treasonable attempt. And, of course, in countering treason or coup attempt, you need the army to pacify the rebels. Right now identified participants in the protest have had their travel passports seized and bank accounts frozen, while hooked to the radar of surveillance.

From 1914 this country has carried the burden of the north / south disimilarity and dichotomy. It's now 106 years since 1914 and the northern leaders passed their resolutions on #ENDSARS, showing they believe they're different from the rest of us in the south.

How much longer shall we wait for the Nigerian nation? Another 106 years?

Until you stop needlessly attacking the North while your region is an eroded, underdeveloped mess with the most useless and incompetent leaders on this side of the equator, you will continue to wonder in deep hypocrisy.

Obama is not a friend of Nigeria, its okay. thank you, we have heard.

mrsage:
It's a known fact that Obama does not like Nigeria.

It's very obvious even the blind can see it.

However the question is, why bring up this topic at this time?

Who cares about Obama's love for Nigeria in 2020?

BastardWike:
Unknown to many, the genocide that took place in Oyigbo was a premeditated attack by Wike on the indigenes because they are not just passionate about their Igbo identity but also identifying with their brothers from the SE.

Wike is a narcissist who hates Igbos with passion and he feels threatened that a union between Igbos and their Obigbo brothers could put a stop to ikwerre undue dominance and maltreatment of other minorities in Rivers State. His attack on them was aimed at breaking this emerging bond and brotherhood between Igbos and their Obigbo blood brothers but unfortunately for him, it has backfired and has achieved the very purpose he was trying to stop.

For those who still don't know that Wike hates Igbos more than any politician alive today in Nigeria, I will give you facts on why Wike is against Igbo interests.

Fact 1. Wike has been pushing a ridiculous propaganda that Igbos are not indigenous to Rivers State. He now often mention Igbos in the same way he mentions Hausa, Yorubas or Fulani as settlers in Rivers State. Despite the fact that this mindset is stupid and unreasonable, he keeps projecting it. Now, if Igbos are not indigenous to the state, what ethnic group does the indigenes of Oyigbo LGA belong to? I'm not even talking about other LGAs too that are Igbos in Rivers State.

Fact 2. Of all the nationalists in Nigeria, Wike named a stadium after Gowon. Then one wonders what's the rational of doing so if not to show his Igbophobic tendencies. He did that to tell everyone that he appreciates how Gowon dealt with Igbos and saved them. In addition, he named old Aba road too.

Fact 3. He publicly stated that criminals operating in parts of Rivers State are Igbos who operate from Anambra State. One begins to wonder why or how on earth a governor will make such slanderous claims. How did he arrive at such conclusion? Does it even make sense to profile not just a whole state but an entire ethnic group & project them like they're constituting nuisance on Rivers State??

Fact 4. He closed Ikoku spare parts market and goes about giving the impression that he is doing the Igbos a favor by allowing them to do business in Rivers State.

There are more facts to prove that Wike is a devil who hates Igbos with passion aside these few ones I listed, but I will stop here for lack of space.
