Some suspected members of the Indigenous People
of Biafra (IPOB) have reportedly set fire to a mosque
in Enugu State.
According to DAILY POST, the incident, which
occurred at Ogrute, the capital of Igbo-Eze North
Local Government Area of Enugu State, has thrown
the residents into panic.
One of the Muslim faithful, who spoke from the area
said the attack was carried out early Saturday
morning, September 16.
“I was sleeping in my house when I started hearing
some explosive sounds. I reside very close to the
mosque.
“As I rushed out, I saw thick smoke billowing from
the mosque. The fire was too much; it was burning
from every corner of the mosque,” he said.
Asked whether the inferno could have been from
power surge, he retorted: “nothing like power surge
in this matter. The entire local government has no
light for several months now.
“There has been a problem between the Enugu
Electricity Distribution Company, EEDC and Ikem
community in Isi-Uzo, and this has disrupted power
supply for several months. Prior to that, we don’t
even light here; we were cut off as we couldn’t pay
high electricity bill.
“We have the belief that it was carried out by IPOB
supporters because they have done similar thing in
other parts of the South-East since their
confrontation with the Nigerian Military began last
Monday.”
The Chief Imam of the Mosque who confirmed the
incident lamented that, “we lost all our items to this
unprovoked attack.
“From our observation, they brought everything
together, including our garments, Holy book,
generators, and made sure they all burnt to ashes
together with the mosque.

You have billion dollars investments across the Country and you are setting a mosque on fire.

That is why no sensible Ibo man will support Kanu and his miscreants.

according to daily post newspaper, it is still an alleged case. Let us wait for police investigation on the issue.

THIS IS ESCALATING INTO SOMETHING ELSE. THEY WENT TOO FAR.

All of you that have intents of provoking religious and tribal wars, Shame shame shame!! !! Shame!!! !

With all these they still claim to be armless and defenceless; very ignorant people! *spits*

igbos are now associated with terrorism, thanks to ipob foolishness.

This is a very dumb maneuver.

Do not stoke the embers of animosity and war, the heat will burn you.

God's wrath is on them already

Very soon ipob will start killing one another

so sad....

So pathetic

Since the coward has gone into hiding, your trying to force the North pickup arms, it wouldn't work. Buratai had thought them lesson with the Shia group last year.

Ipob guys try wella.....



"The zoo will burn!!!!", they screamed!.....all they managed is just one mosque and a station.

Zoo get plenty animals.....ordinary python dance them piaoun....we never release lion o,or tiger or panther. If those ones dance lasan ....... Make I no talk

Na like this, like play like play, civil war dey take start, provocation then reprisals, then comes the bigger provocation, then a more coordinated reprisals then blown out civil war.

Na only God know why, the almajiris in the north more especially Kaduna kastina and kano have not taken to the street to show their strength.

Ibos are really playing with fire though, cos one hour of madness here in the north go outweigh even one week of attacks in the south. There would be more destruction of lives and properties in the north than in the south

Ladies And Gentlemen, behold the PEACEFUL, LOVING and HARMLESS activities of I-PIG-OB.

Imagine the level of terror their Ibo brethren in the North are facing right now as they live daily in fear and intense tension, unable to open their shops or move around freely, as these images and other provocative videos are spreading like wildfire in the North, provoking attempts at reprisals.

I have it on good authority that many churches were practically empty in the North yesterday (with cautionary text and whatsapp messages flying around) and several attempts at reprisals were curtailed by our able security forces (including the Army that is accused by the IPIGS to be acting out a northern script). In fact there is so much happening in the North unreported as a reaction to the recent attack of IPIGS on northerners, but I'd rather keep it that way in order to minimise the tension nationwide.

Yet they claim despite all this terror caused by Cownus foolishness and his followers stupidity, that I-PIG-OB is not a terrorist organisation.

Kudos to northern leaders like Gov. Ganduje and co. as well as our security agents and armed forces who have been effectively proactive in counselling the youths on the need for restraint, and preventing violent reprisals whose damage will far outweigh what we've seen in the East against northerners.

They should capture the cowardly chief swine and hand him over to Ibos and other minorities in the North who are fuming in anger over what they're currently experiencing due to Kanu's foolishness; the jungle justice that will ensue will make ALUU 4 look like a massage session.

HopeAtHand:
my summation is that Kanu considers his followers bunch of Idiots that you can sit and tell all manner of stories. You can just cook up any lie and feed them. and they will over feed. They don't do background check, they don't scrutinize, they don't analyse. They accept hook line and sinker.


The question is because they have a lying leader, does it make IPOB a terrorist organisation??

Put America in Nigeria's shoes, will they brand IPOB a terrorist association?
