GRUESOME MURDER OF TWO SOLDIERS BY IPOB/ESN, CALLOUS AND DESPICABLE

The Nigerian Army (NA), on Saturday 30 April 2022 received information on the gruesome, barbaric and most despicable manner in which members of the Indigenous People of Biafra(IPOB) and its armed affiliate, Eastern Security Network(ESN) murdered in cold blood, two soldiers Master Warrant Officer (MWO) Audu M Linus (retired) and Private(Pte)Gloria Matthew, who were on transit to Imo state for their traditional wedding. Apparently, the soldiers had embarked on the trip to fulfill the traditional rites of conjugating their matrimony, as the very well respected and cherished Igbo tradition demands.

Ironically, the fact that one of the soldiers, Pte Gloria Matthew who hails from Nkwerre LGA of Imo state, has an ethnic affiliation with the good people of South East Nigeria did not prevail on the sensibility of the dissidents.

This dastardly act, one too many, clearly portends the deep seated hate, desperation and lawlessness with which foot soldiers of IPOB/ESN have being unleashing terror on Ndigbo, whom they claim they are on a mission to protect and emancipate, as well as other innocent Nigerians who are resident or transiting the South East.

This gruesome murder, in which they did not spare even their own child, clearly depicts callousness, impenitence and is indisputably, a brazen act of terrorism perpetrated by IPOB/ESN.

Though the dissident groups have continued to live in denial, while masquerading as unknown gunmen in their criminal violent campaign in the region, the NA will ensure the perpetrators of this dastardly act unleashed on its personnel do not go unpunished. While we deeply condole with the families, relations and close associates of the victims, the NA has commenced investigation to unmask and bring the criminals to book.

Members of the public are please enjoined to oblige security agencies actionable information that will lead to the arrest of these criminals.

Hedonini:
The information on how and where these very unfortunate compatriots were waylaid and abducted by these Igbo terrorists has still not been provided.

How were they abducted off the road? Could this be rhe handiwork of informants who are close to them and knew that they were coming home for the traditional wedding? I don't think these terrorists could have just 'incidentally' happened upon them on that fateful day. Of course they wouldn't be dressed in military gear, so even if the terrorists stumbled upon their vehicle, how would they have been identified and singled out?

These questions need urgent answers.

Having said that, I pray the actual perpetrators and others like them who ho about terrorising their fellow Igbos are apprehended soonest. Nothing would give me more joy than seeing those subhuman bastards skinned alive and made to suffer a very very slow, painful death.

Nnamdi Kanu's suffering never even start,he is a cursed soul.

Cownu is facing a seven-count amended treasonable felony charge the Federal Government preferred against him

Praktikals:

Dont be naive. Nnamdi Kanu will soon be sentenced to life imprisonment.

CUMIN:

Reasonable Nigerians will demand he be imprisoned for treasonable felony.

This gruesome murder, in which they did not spare even their own child, clearly depicts callousness, impenitence and is indisputably, a brazen act of terrorism perpetrated by IPOB/ESN.

What Ipob did was an offensive reaction to their offensive attack.
Don't worry Baba, everything is good .

Dont look to far in finding those who are behind his death. His comrades have a lot of questions to answer. The two dead people can be used as a sacrificial lamb to continue the propaganda of making ipob look evil.They are easy to discard because the two are christains and one is coming from the most hates tribe while the other is from southern Kaduna.
