TROOPS' NEUTRALISE THREE UNKNOWN GUNMEN IN A SHOOTOUT

Troops of Sector 5 of Exercise GOLDEN DAWN deployed in Enugu, have neutralised three unknown gunmen who attacked a Nigerian Police checkpoint along Okija-Onitsha expressway on 7 October 2021.

The gallant troops engaged and overwhelmed the gunmen with superior firepower, forcing them to flee the scene. Troops however gave them a hot pursuit, and engaged the gunmen in a gun duel.

The 3 gunmen, who drove in 2 Vehicles ( a Hilux and Hummer bus), eventually succumbed to troops' effective firepower, while others fled with gunshot wounds.

Troops also recovered one vehicle and 2 motorcycles, while conducting further exploitation of the general area for the fleeing terrorists.

Unfortunately, a soldier paid the supreme price, in the line of duty, for his country.

The Chief of Army Staff Commends the troops for the feat and urges them to sustain the momentum against all criminal elements operating in the region. The COAS also sympathises with the family of the fallen hero and prays for the repose of his soul.

In the Southeast, "innocent" civilians carry guns and kill policemen.

Once you hear "Peaceful" or "Innocent".... just know say na dem.

About 70% of victims of internal crisis are victims of the brutality of coercive instruments of the state. Come down to the North you eyes will open to the reality that the activities of bandits & herdmen are after all backed by some rogue elements in the military.

After marketing IPOB/ESN and it's becoming clear there might not be any connection with d upsurge in crime d Army has quietly changed caption to unknown gunmen which shows that IPOB/ESN might be innocent after all

Some people will still say they are killing innocent Igbo youths.

No outsider can come into the Southeast to perpetrate acts of violence without internal support.

These gunmen have internal support in the southeast and the people seem to be playing along.

IPOB lost the plot finally when they started arming criminals to fight on their behalf.

How long did IPOB leadership think they would be able to control them before they turned rougue?
