Suspected IPOB Fighters Kill Soldier Who Sneaked Out To Attend A Party by OZIOGU1(op): 4:56pm On May 19, 2025
A Nigerian Army soldier attached to Operation Udoka has been killed by suspected members of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra after sneaking out of his duty post to attend a party in Anambra State.

The incident was said to have occurred on the evening of Saturday, May 18, 2025, at the Forward Operating Base in Uli.

It was gathered that the soldier had attended the event — a strippers’ party titled “Ladies’ Jamboree” — while wearing his military camouflage uniform.

According to a security source, the soldier was discovered missing during a tactical operation. The source said, “It was during a tactical operation that it was discovered the soldier was missing. He was later found to have sneaked out of the base without permission to attend a strippers’ party at a nearby hotel, in uniform. It was there that he was accosted and fatally shot by suspected IPOB/ESN fighters. His lifeless body, along with that of a baby, was later recovered at the scene by troops. “His weapon has been retrieved and is currently in military custody.”

Operation Udoka is a Defence Headquarters-led operation and efforts to reach the Director, Defence Media Operations, Maj. Gen. Markus Kangye, were unsuccessful.His phone number was switched off, and he had yet to respond to a message sent to him as of the time of filing this report.

The PUNCH reports that the killing is the latest in a series of targeted attacks on security personnel in the South-East region, where IPOB and ESN have been accused of carrying out violent campaigns against state forces.

Nnamdi kanu to my knowledge was a very immature , loud mouthed greedy irrational leader who had no role model and refused to learn from the mistakes of past revolutionaries ..

Now he's being taken for granted

Honestly this tragic incident just shows how dangerous and reckless Nnamdi kanu and his ipob gang have made the south-east turning it into a war zone where even off-duty soldiers can’t breathe without fear.

So Saturday was 18th May, 2025?

And today Monday is still 19th May, 2025? They don't try to crosscheck before moving posts to frontpage, just as they do when it comes to banning. They ban arbitrarily cos they have the buttons. Abuse of power.

Una dey try o.

Rest in peace to the gallant soldier.
Sometimes I wonder if these soldiers are well trained. How could you have gone there on uniform at such time of night?

Again, how did they know he was kpaid by IPOB?

Every crime committed in the East is done by IPOB - how did they know that IPOB is behind the crime?

Sincerely speaking the way most of you called Obi into everything that happens around will always arise my suspicion that there is something not really adding up here.

He is not the president nor a serving governor.

Are you sure the claims by his supporters that he won the last election is not true?

How can most of you be calling a candidate that came third in an election as if he was the winner of the election?

The truth will surely catch up with you people one day.
