The National Assembly, through its joint committee on Industry, Trade and Investment, has declared that Nigeria is fooling itself over border closure in view of cross border banditry taking place in states sharing borders with Niger and the Republic of Chad.

Is Niger Delta part of Biafra?
Is there any cultural affrmity Igbos have with Itshekiri, Urhobos, Ibibio, Anang , Ijaws at least to mention but a few ?


The need for the teaching of history in schools indeed can not be over stated.

IGBOPROMISE1:
What you said is true but only part of the reason they do what they do! Poilitics, economics, religion, intense hatred and a feeling of 'superiority' over the Igbo are also factors that drive them!

Thewrath:
In an attempt to paint the SE as unsafe,you have forgotten that they kidnap and kill in thousands in the north! Some communities and local govt in the north are controlled by terrorists!

SE is not moved by your propaganda,you can continue to release repentant terrorists…
God bless igboland!

Orsu Insecurity Worsens With 40 Deaths As Conspiracy Of Silence Lingers


No fewer than 50 person have been gruesomely murdered in communities within Orsu Local Government Area of Imo State from January 1 to date

Orsu is a border local area in Imo State with administrative headquarters in Awoidemmiri, it shares borders with communities in Ihiala Local Government Area and Nnewi South Local Government Area of Anambra State.


The killing spree bestrides the communities in the LGA including, Awoidemiri, Orsuihiteukwa, Eziawa, Asaubirielem, Umuhuokabia, Ihitenansa, Amaebu and others.

It is revealed recently, the gang of killers use machetes and axe to hack their victims to death instead guns in the to carryout their heinous activities without attracting attention.

The criminal gangs who purport to be agitators fighting for the release of Nnamdi Kanu, the detained leader of IPOB storm the homes of people who they often accuse of sabotage (leaking information about them to security agencies) at night and murder them in cold blood.

Their victims also include people who allegedly visit to Owerri to collect government rice or money on the invitations of some political leaders of their locality like their peers in other areas.

What baffles many is how these guys who live in the bush get wind of the missions of their would-be victims to Owerri such that before they returned home, they storm their doorsteps and waste them.

The last of the murderous attacks took place in Ihitenansa on Wednesday January 8 when about nine youths sitting out were gruesomely killed.


A local resident said the victims were ambushed just before dusk and killed without altercation or scuffle.


A Human Rights Lawyer, Prof Chidi Odinkalu reported a widespread killing across communities in the LGA on Jan 6.

Odinkalu in his verified X- handle said now fewer than 23 persons had been murdered at the time he posted noting that they could be more.

According to him, information is coming through of what appears to have been systematic slaughter last night (Jan. 5) across several communities in Orsu LGA of Imo State, SE #Nigeria.

“The communities included Amaebu, Awo-Idemili, Eziawa, Umuhu-Okabia, interim casualty count ATM is 23 but it looks like it could be higher,” he said.

A local source said the number of deaths in Orsu Local Government Area have exceeded 40 since January 1, 2025 noting that Orsu have been under siege of agitators and criminal gangs in the past four years.

The source said people had not had it easy as military forces and Ebubeagu security operatives of Imo State government that should be their refuge often fell victims of their operations.

“They come with the mindset that everybody is a suspect, this is why many natives have abandoned their homes and villages and they no longer for occasional events like burials and weddings or yearly festivals like New Yam, Easter or yuletide.

“We no longer hold traditional marriages, church weddings and funerals here, they now hold them outside this are in the past three years for safety reasons,” it said.

investigation also reveal that several Catholic parishes and churches in the area are closed to worshippers, public schools have been shut down and converted to military camps.

Death has become common place because healthcare services is near absent as there are no functional healthcare centre while private facilities operate at lowest capacity.

Eke-Ututu market which served the people of old Orlu province, the Aguata, Nnewi and Ihiala areas in Anambra for over two centuries and has been the economic life wire of the people has been totally shutdown and occupied by soldiers for two year.

The place is now a ghost town and an emerging forest.



“In the last four years, there is no one kilometre of road graded talk more of asphalted or a sheet of zinc on the roof of any government primary or secondary school in area in spite of all the Federal Allocation received on behalf Orsu Local Government Council,” the source said.

Continuing source said it was sad that the insecurity and dark cloud that have eclipse Orsu is not discussed anywhere apart from the occasional celebration of arrested ‘alleged bandits’ most of who were picked from their homes while the siege on the area continued.

Orsu is blessed with notable and well placed politicians including former and serving commissioners, former House of Representatives members, a serving House of Assembly member and a panoply of other appointees who had the capacity to bring the Somaliarisation of Orsu ti national and international limelight.

It is certain that these have not visited their homes openly in the last four years but rather they parade the streets of Owerri and sometimes Abuja as political leaders.

It is not in any record that they have discussed the guillotine state of Orsu with the people for a the possible way out of the circus or presented to the Chief Security Officer of the State who doubles as their principal as a problem.

The dilemma is that these people are unlikely candidates to be at the table where the problem or solution is discussed because as bad as the situation is, they have successfully conducted and returned election results for which their are beneficiaries either as winners or entrenched political leaders.

For a people who are comfortable to stand or supervise election for 11 political wards in one compound under the protection of heavily armed security agents and submit results generated from that travesty for announcements as reflection of the will of a people, it would tomfoolery to think that they will be sincerely commit to normalcy.

The state of anomie in Orsu seems to be a new normal especially as it suits poses no challenge to the activities of some class of the society.

The sustained attacks and killings seem to be a ploy to run people out of the communities and engender desolation and desertion, both of which are oxygen for continued reign of terror.

Are you from South West?

helinues:
We will soon have borders across the South West states. That's the only thing that will curb the influx not just the bandits but unnecessary movement to the region

Presidential candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC), Omoyele Sowore has alleged that the planned national confab to be set up by the Federal Government was to compensate the son of President Bola Tinubu, Seyi and his friends.

mannobi:
It is pure hypocrisy of the west to tag Nigeria a war torn country when the major funds used by the terrorists comes from outside the country. Who is financing terrorism in africa? Where are they getting equipments from? How do they get the training and are the UN always shouting human rights abuse when nothing is said about the atrocities of the terrorists.

babat89:
Are there only 2 southern regions?

coleon:
My worry is not even about what you posted but about the ronuists/agbado posts always getting the same amount of likes.
I think Seun should be wary of various parody accounts and BOTs used in generating this likes to make ronuists feel good with themselves.

He should have watched the UK Parliament where the Prime Minister is defending his government policies daily on blistering criticisms from the opportunity party.

And who is holding SE from not seceding? Is it not the same SE that’s all over the internet clamouring for obi presidency?? I ask you south east cowards have you ever at any time ask your leaders to raise your secession in the house?
