Ask yourself that question as a Muslim.
Must everything be settled with fighting and shedding blood?

AbaLion:
The killing of ESN Commander in the heart of the operational base of ESN in Imo has not only exposed the tactical weakness of ESN Operatives but also the tactical daftness of Nnamdi Kanu as a leader.

The theatre of ESN which is supposed to be impenetrable given how sensitive as the operational and tactical base of the zone, was torn down by Nigeria security forces and the Commander, Ikonso shot down to his boxer with his charmed vest hanging helplessly around his neck.
If your most fortified camp could be broken down fairly easily, then you are Finished!

The Nigerian security are henceforth in possession of some sensitive and substantial details of ESN. Raids including gadgets and sensitive materials linkng ESN networking and other top commanders & staffs and operational information would have been obtained. There's no way a top commander, much less a deputy to Kanu wouldn't have some top secret details in his possession. Everything is now pretty much in the hands of Nigeria Army.

The reason why Nigeria security forces have been having tougher times defeating Bokoharam, Bandits & fulani herdmen is because their operational camps have never been penetrated by the security agencies. What we do witness are occassional random arrests of terrorists & bandits with little or nothing to show.

Going into a terrorist camp is a fight to finish as the case of Idris Deby paying the ultimate price. ESN do not have what it takes to defend its most fortified territory. Although, they could throw back some few punches but would later buck even before the fight began.

A closer look at the arms and ammunition recovered from Ikonso's camp shows the unpreparedness and scantily stocked the so called ESN, other than an empty barrel. With those little stock of arms, they hardly could go a 6 hour shooting spree with the the security agencies. Compare with the fully armed bandits hobnobbing with Gumi, whose ammunition were displayed with intent. Notwithstanding, the full gallery of their arms & ammunition. They have easy access from Libya, Chad, Mali, Niger through the border.

What access do ESN has? the access to attack random road blocks police officers, get them killed and disposses them of their weapons, at most an organized attacks on police stations where large cache of arms were stolen for more attacks. They are landlocked, they are holed up without the privilege of access like the North, the West or their close neighbors, SS. Little wonder, Nnamdi Kanu was so particular about dismantling all road blocks in the South East so that as much arms would come in so easily and unfettered.

With the Nigerian Army in possession of what would further nail IPOB/ESN in the international community, I expect that British Government and her EU allies will revoke the asylum consideration and may likely align with the Federal Government's proscription of IPOB in the wake of overwhelming criminal evidences linking IPOB activities to terrorism less than 24hours to an attack on a Governor's house. While his house was set ablaze, cars burnt, more unfortunately, two of his security aides were killed.

The perpetrators could not be far fetched from the statement by another South East Governor, Ikpeazu, who stated that Nnamdi Kanu had declared death sentence on All the Governors in the South East.

Nnamdi Kanu has been having a handshake across the Ambazonia region of Southern Cameroon from whence he has been getting handouts on how to carry out series of organized violent attacks on Government institutions. Being a man with much words and very little wisdom, he has no political support which creates a wide gulf from his Ambazonia counterpart, who has the support of the socio-political class.
Nnamdi Kanu would be rat out from his hole because of his vile vituperations, wild imaginations, and tactless misgivings.

If his foot soldiers could penetrate a Governors house, I think Kanu could have made the most of it by deploying intellectual sagacity rather than being a blood thirsty & destructive beast. The absence and otherwise lack of a think-tank among Ipob's hierarchy complements Kanu and his goons as a money hungry cult.

Following this ugly development, it's high time Ohaneze Ndigbo and Elders crawled out with their red caps and walking sticks to make a loud plea to tie down their recalcitrant ipob kids to a chain and passionately disown Kanu with their full chest, otherwise the righteous dwellers might suffer fromf the impending consequences.

Lion are you saying that Chad military the delt a big blow on Boko Haram terrorists are weak because the commander of the army and President of Chad was killed ? Did America finished the Taliban because most of their senior commanders was killed ? America is pulling its troops out of Afghanistan having fought and got tired of fighting. I'm in America and proud to say I make my monthly contributions to ESN on time. The last time Mazi Kanu came here we raised over 400.000 dollars withing two weeks. IPOB is a multi million dollars organization if you don't know, and we have a enough resources and manpower to match our enemies. The ammunition we used are locally made by men trained in Israel. There are many things you don't know about IPOB. A lots of Igbo billionaires who a fed up with Nigeria are secretly financing IPOB activities. Now that the get of hell is widely open, stay tuned with the news...

eduj:
your wrong, less than an hour after that guy was killed, Hope uzodinma's house was destroyed.Assuming ESN was responsible, it means that they are very organized. judging from activities in the East, these guys operate in semi-independent cells.
Don't be surprised that the escalation will not take place in imo but another state.
violence can't resolve this issue but rather ,it will worsen it .The federal government has placed ESN in such a position that the can't but respond with force-hence this circle of violence continues. And the SE isn't the NE that the country can afford to boil over.
Any military exchange in the SE will cause very adverse effects all over the country

Go and tell your father sharap, tiger claw-faced anu ohia residing in Oshogbo.

Africonji:
The bitter truth is that the Op could be right in many of his opinions. I would like to add that Mazi Kanu needs to change his tactics for now, because the captured Ipob and ESN members would definitely be tortured to spill operational and sensitive secrets. And seeing how a top commander of the group has just been taken out, demoralization might set in for the members. We live to fight another day.

AbaLion:
I rather take seriously the foolishness of Emma Powerless than your foolness. His foolishness is far more relevant than the foolishness of an online nobody.
If Emma could declare Uzodinma a target, it therefore means that the life of Ikonso is equal to that of a Governor. That, itself signifies Ikonso up there a 2nd in command to Kanu. Thousands of Ipob militants had since died with Kanu never issued a statement much loud, not even the death of his parents did he place a value on.
Tying to downplay the command span of Ikonso in ESN hierarchy, is like trying to downplay how really dumb you sound.
You talk from a point of emotion, I talk from a point of intelligence. I only engage you to revive some dead cells in your head.

Even if you like kill Kanu, you terrorists won’t occupy our land. You will kill all of us first and I mean even Igbos outside NiggaArea. Get ready to kill 50 million people . Ndi ala, thunder fire you wicked and devilish people.

dederocs:
Yes this is 2021, Every section of the country has their own militias and militants, your craze na east una go destroy, kill una papa and mama, your ESN can not penetrate any other zone.

Lol..
With Nigeria security forces walking into ESN territory and gunned down Kanu's deputy, trust me, Nigeria security have had the upper hand and South East has become a marked territory of the Nigerian Army. Kanu/ESN was having the sole command of the South east but he has now lost it.

No be zoo again?

The Op is right, for NA to invade their camp so easily shows how weak they are.....why didn't they use their rocket launcher as shown n their propaganda videos

IPOB in sivia pain right now

AbaLion:
The death of Idris Deby was a massive victory for Bokoharam. If your topmost commander could be less protected, it shows a tactical deficiency.

Besk:
Adverse effects all over the country? How? So, if you burn down all your infrastructure, kill all your political leaders and then go on to attack the armed foxes who then clinically despatch your men to straight to hell, how does that impact the rest of the country?

Why do you IPOBians like fooling yourselves?

You don’t listen to any voice of reason, so please keep attacking your things down there in the South-East and the rest of us will keep on clapping for you from afar.

God punish you all if after destroying your own town ans cities in the South-East, you now start rushing to Lagos to claim that it is no man’s land. Ewu!!!

LegalWolf:
LOOOOOOOOOOL!!!!!! You guys overestimate your importance. For the record: The SE is not indispensable to the Nigerian State. SE will born and Nigeria will pretty move forward. There is absolutely nothing holding the country back if the SE turns into a refugee camp.

My own opinion is that everyone has the right to demand for secession. To leave this country. But it SHOULD never be done in the manner in which NK and that Sunday charlatan go about it.

Lifestone:
You are naive.
When ESN strikes, they kill fellow Igbo, when businesses are burnt down in Abia, most will belong to the Igbos. What's the purpose of the insurgency.
Again, you may not like what the OP said, but the images we are seeing shows ESN is not ready for this kind of warfare.
There is no forest in the East to hide ESN (South East is largely built up) as the case maybe with the BH, it then means that most of the fights will be in the open areas and most time innocent civilians will be victim.
I think the East should review their strategy, the costs of this present approach will be very costly.

Malawian:
Yoruba, una too stupid o. All this one Fulani dey do nah to drive wedge between Igbo and Yoruba and una dey chop mugun. When next Fulani set against Yoruba and Yoruba land, una expect Igbo to leap to your support? Dem just use divide and rule for una, but una no gree get sense. Las Las, Igbo ready give Fulani another War, shey your people ready as well?
