Ikonso’s Successor Emerges A Day After Dead Of ESN Commander by deantimes(op): 9:02pm On Apr 25, 2021
The Indigenous People Of Biafra (IPOB) says a new commander for the Eastern Security Network (ESN) has emerged.

The security arm of the secessionist group lost its top commander popularly known as Ikonso Saturday morning.

But a day after Mr Ikonso, who was reportedly ambushed and murdered in cold blood, passed away, his successor has emerged, according to Emma Powerful, spokesman of IPOB.

Mr Powerful made this known while granting a telephone interview to Channels Television’s Sunday Politics.

“Another commander has taken over,” he told the anchor of the programme, refusing to name Ikonso’s successor.

Meanwhile, Femi Fani-Kayode, a former Aviation Minister says the Nigerian government made the greatest mistake by killing the deceased warlord, saying IPOB might tow the same part like Boko Haram terrorists who went berserk when its founder, Mohammed Yusuf, was killed.

And so what ?
should we be surprised?
Were there is a leader, there is a second in command, ever third in command, all through to the least.
If accidentally, the first is eliminated, the second in command takes the lead.
It happens in any organization, that is called power hierarchy.

If Nigerian army tells me tomorrow is Tuesday,I will go to my calendar to confirm or even consult Googlehuh


They tortured that ikonso guy to death, they are lying about the casualty figure on the ESN side grin

Nigerian army that always claim to "kill and neutralize hundreds of Boko haram elements" without showing us pics, long ago I lost the respect and admiration I had for the army, because since buhari came into power, they have become an army of liars

My questions are:


How was he nabbed?


What was he doing when they caught him
?

Was he not armed?

Seems bullets could not penetrate him, could he not repell the attack?


My Guy Bleep up o!


RIP STRONG MAN !

There are thousands more radical than MNK, there are thousands more brave than Ikonso, there are many Ojukwus, Achuzias etc who are ready to answer the call to duty. Igbos breathe Biafra. May God guide and protect the new Commander.

Another brainwashed fool, putting his stinking mouth where he was not called. Put ur ill-thought opinions in ur region, where bandits have ravaged, nd soldiers are killed like chickens.

Oh I forgot, you don't have a region and ur kinsmen are d Fulani bandits carrying out d attacks.
Re: Ikonso’s Successor Emerges A Day After Dead Of ESN Commander by Dpharisee: 8:28am On Apr 26, 2021
The reality is that many Nigerians see this as a crisis between Igbos and Fulanis. They don't want their relations in the security agencies to be involved or get killed in the process.
They would prefer only Fulani officers and their Hisbah to be engaged in any confrontation, no Yoruba, Tiv, Nupe, Ijaw, Gbagyi etc officer should lose his or her in the South East in this war of attrition between Igbos and Fulanis
