The Nigerian Army has recovered the corpses of four soldiers allegedly killed by members of the pro-Biafra group, IPOB, in Orlu, Imo State.

A senior military officer, who confirmed the development to PRNigeria, said the military vehicle damaged during the attack has also been recovered.

PRNigeria reported how Nigerian troops on Monday arrested 20 members of IPOB after they attacked soldiers and civilians in Orlu.

The troops, in a joint operation involving the army, air force and the police, sustained a raid operation in the axis, after the killing of the soldiers.

The IPOB members were said to have ambushed and killed the soldiers who were on the escort of a top military officer.

The officer, a brigadier-general, and his team were on inspection of the civil-military project at Nkwerre.

The IPOB members were said to have also taken away weapons and a vehicle belonging to the troops.

The PRNigeria report was not explicit on when the soldiers were killed. But it appeared the incident happened late January, from a report published, January 26, by the BBC Pidgin English.

The BBC report, which was later pulled down, said the police spokesperson in Imo, Orlando Ikeogwu, confirmed the killing.

Meanwhile, the spokesperson of the Nigerian Army, 82 Division, Aliyu Yusuf, has alerted the public of a fake video on an alleged plan by soldiers to attack women and children in Orlu Market.

Mr Yusuf, a colonel, said the video was circulated on social media to hoodwink the public.

He said: “The video was recorded in an unknown market with a fake soldier claiming to be privy to a supposed order given by 302 Artillery Regiment, Onitsha to start killing everybody at Orlu Market and environs in Orlu Local Government Area in Imo State.

“Preliminary investigation revealed that it was a calculated attempt to maliciously fabricate sensational stories to cause resentment and smear campaign against Nigerian Army Internal Security Operations.

“The supposed individual in the video was not bold enough to reveal his true identity as claimed or present his so called military uniform and identity card which were deliberately obscured to deceive innocent target audience.”

Mr Yusuf added that the Nigerian Army recognises the right of citizens to hold and share opinions on social media, and not to spread divisive contents by unpatriotic individuals.

Amidst the controversy over the military operation in Orlu, Governor Hope Uzodinma has said the military came to Imo State on his invitation.

IPOB has claimed the Igbos are unfairly targeted by the Nigerian government.

Mr Uzodinma, who spoke with reporters in Abuja after a meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari, said the soldiers were brought in to quell violence perpetrated by “militants” in Orlu and its environs.

“Well, the issue of bringing the military to Imo state; you recall, during the EndSARS protests, a lot of properties were damaged in Imo State; police stations were burnt down, soldiers were killed, their rifles removed from them. And immediately after the EndSARS, we thought it was over then issues of kidnapping, where you know, a Catholic bishop was kidnapped, people were killed.

“And these militants come out and begin to shoot. We’ve lost lives, market women were killed, old women were raped in Orlu area of Imo State and they visited this......... CONTINUE READING BELOW.....

Following sequence of attacks by bandits which led to the killing of three persons, Youths of Maro in Kajuru Council of Kaduna State, have lynched a man to death.

The man nicknamed ‘Doctor’ was suspected to be an accomplice of bandits.

The State’s Commissioner for Internal Security and Home Affairs, Mr Samuel Aruwan made this known in a statement, adding that, security operatives have been directed to identify the youths who carried out the lynching for prosecution.

He also maintained that security agencies are investigating some locals for alleged collaboration with bandits during recent disturbing attacks in Kajuru local government area.

The commissioner explained that sequence of reported attacks began in Ungwan Sha’awa in Kajuru local government area, where armed bandits killed one Ubangida Dogo in his home.

He added: “According to the report, his son, Jude Ubangida was injured by the bandits and is receiving treatment in hospital.

“As the bandits withdrew from the village, they also attacked Ungwan Galadima in the same locality and killed one Bulus Gwamna.

“In Ungwan Gamu along the same trail, one Daniel Danlami was similarly killed by the marauding bandits.

“Preliminary investigations thereafter suggested that the bandits conducted these attacks with the aid of some local youths. As security agencies probed this further, one such suspect known simply as “Doctor”, from Kujeni village, was swiftly attacked and killed by youths of Maro in revenge.

“Just before his death, he confessed his involvement in the attack, and named a certain Fidelis Ali, also from Maro, as another accomplice of the bandits. Ali has since been arrested and taken into custody by the Police.

“Governor Nasir El-Rufai expressed sadness at the reports of the killings, and sent his sincere condolences the families of the slain, while praying for the repose of their souls.

“Going further, the Governor expressed deep concern over the alleged involvement of local youths, and moreso the lynching of one of the suspects.

“The Governor appealed to citizens to allow investigations proceed and not usurp the process, reminding them that jungle justice is a grievous form of self-help and remains a crime.

“Security agencies have thus been directed to identify the perpetrators of the lynching for prosecution.

“Investigations into the incidents are in progress,”Aruwan said......... CONTINUE READING BELOW.....

A Nigerian, Obinwanne Okeke also known as Invictus Obi, was sentenced today to 10 years in prison for his involvement in a computer-based intrusion fraud scheme that caused approximately $11 million in known losses to his victims.

“Through subterfuge and impersonation, Obinwanne Okeke engaged in a multi-year global business email and computer hacking scheme that caused a staggering $11 million in losses to his victims,” said Raj Parekh, Acting U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia.

“Today’s sentence further demonstrates EDVA’s and FBI’s worldwide reach in vigorously pursuing justice on behalf of American victims and others and holding international cybercriminals accountable, no matter where they commit their crimes.”

According to court documents, Obinwanne Okeke, 33, operated a group of companies known as the Invictus Group based in Nigeria and elsewhere. From approximately 2015 to 2019, Okeke and others engaged in a conspiracy to conduct various computer-based frauds. The conspirators obtained and compiled the credentials of hundreds of victims, including victims in the Eastern District of Virginia.

As part of the scheme, Okeke and other conspirators engaged in an email compromise scheme targeting Unatrac Holding Limited, the export sales office for Caterpillar heavy industrial and farm equipment. In April 2018, a Unatrac executive fell prey to a phishing email that allowed conspirators to capture login credentials. The conspirators sent fraudulent wire transfer requests and attached fake invoices. Okeke participated in the effort to victimize Unatrac through fraudulent wire transfers totaling nearly $11 million, which was transferred overseas.
