Politics › FG Alleges Bid To Externalise Pro-biafra Struggle by Stingman(op): 10:05am On Sep 18, 2017

By Seye Olumide (Lagos), Nnamdi Akpa (Abakaliki), Chido Okafor (Warri) and Gordi Udeajah (Umuahia)

• Urges western nations to disregard agitators
• Military operation not targeted at IPOB, say govs
• S’South group slams Igbo leaders over crisis

The minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, has raised the alarm over attempts by the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) led by Mr. Nnamdi Kanu to externalise its struggle through propagandist writings to the governments and national parliaments of some western nations.According to the minister, the move is to give the impression that the IPOB members are victims of an ethno-sectarian violence orchestrated by the government, hence they need protection.

Mohammed said the activities of IPOB had become a great threat to the peaceful existence of the country and no government would allow such to continue. At a press briefing in Lagos yesterday, Mohammed urged the western world to discard such sentiments from IPOB. “This is a blatant lie and it was never in the agenda of the President Muhammadu Buhari-led government to suppress its citizens for whatever reasons.”

The minister also alleged that IPOB, having been declared a terrorist group by the Nigeria Army and also proscribed by the Southeast governors, has also resolved to engage in a massive harvesting of gory videos from the distant past and from other lands to hoodwink the public, and in particular the international community, into believing that its (IPOB) members are victims of state-sponsored violence.

“Such videos, which have very high emotive quotient, are circulating on the social media. We call on all to subject all such videos to the greatest scrutiny so as not to be misled. In particular, we urge the international community not to jump to any conclusion on the basis of such videos,” he said.

Recalling the devastation of the 1994 genocide in Rwanda that left about 800,000 people dead and the role the media played in the incident, the minister appealed to the Nigerian media to show greater restraint at this time.

“The reporting of the IPOB issues, especially since the military deployment in the south-east for its exercise, tagged Operation Python Dance II, has been sensationalised by a section of the media. The divisive and jaundiced opinions of some anarchists have been given a big play by a section of the media. This is wrong.

“As I have always said, the Nigerian media cannot afford to sit on the fence or engage in irresponsible journalism when the issue at stake is the very survival of our nation. This is because no professionals, including journalists, can operate when a nation descends into anarchy.“We must not, deliberately or otherwise, strengthen the hands of those who are bent on destroying our nation. Opinion leaders must also moderate their interventions in order not to aggravate the situation on ground.”

In another reaction to the IPOB’s activities, a former member of the House of Representatives, Mr. Bernard Mikko decried Kanu’s approach to achieve his objectives.

“Violence or confrontation with the security agents is never the best approach,” he said.Mikko, who is also the spokesman of the defunct Ali Modu Sheriff faction of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), however, said it was also wrong for the military to have on its own labeled IPOB a terrorist group as such a pronouncement should rather have been made by either the Minister of Defence, the National Security Adviser (NSA) or any political appointee on behalf of the president.

According to Mikko in an interview with The Guardian yesterday, while a peaceful protest is within civilised democratic norms, a violent agitation and resort to apparent self-help as witnessed by IPOB is criminal and undemocratic. He urged Kanu to channel his agitation appropriately instead of disturbing the peace of the country and the people.

Please advise them to go about there normal daily lives and don't go against the law of the nation. SHALOM

Nobody wants war. But even when it starts..There will be a non-fly zone. US already has a drone command centre in Cameroun. So be properly guided. If IPOB wanted arm struggle, they would have activated it since. Even northerners cannot watch their people killed in cold blood without fighting back, but IPOB members have endured killings by armed soldiers. So no need for war. Dialogue is the best solution.

Politics › Thugs Attack Igbo Traders In Sokoto by Stingman(op): 9:46am On Sep 17, 2017

Adeniyi Olugbemi

Palpable fear gripped residents of Sokoto State as some youths, on Saturday, attacked Igbo traders in the state.

The incident, which visibly shook Igbo merchants on Bello Way and Emir Yahaya areas of Sokoto metropolis, forced other Igbo traders at nearby Sahara street to close down their shops and run for safety.

SUNDAY PUNCH learnt that armed youths, in their hundreds, set ablaze a building along Bello Way, where Igbo traders have shops.

One of the victims, identified as Chief Okafor, said, “My house was razed by some suspected arsonists.

“I got a call from my wife that some youths had invaded my house and set it ablaze. My family narrowly escaped the attacks.”

Another victim, William Emmanuel Usoh, told journalists that his Honda Civic car was torched by some unidentified youths along Emir Yahaya Road.

Usoh explained that the timely arrival of men of the Nigeria Civil Defence and Security Corps, however, prevented the youths from destroying more property in the area.

When contacted, the President-General of Igbo Community in Sokoto State, Charles Uwaga, confirmed the incident.

He said reports reaching him indicated that some of his members were attacked within the state capital.

“A member just called me that his house was razed. There were also cases of vandalised shops,” Uwaga said.

Reacting to the development, the state government urged all residents to go about their activities without fear of molestation.

The government stated that arrangements had been put in place to protect lives and property.

The spokesman for Governor Aminu Tambuwal, in a statement, said the unrest in other parts of the country, especially the South-East, would have no negative effect on residents of Sokoto.

He lauded the people of the state for being their brother’s keeper and urged them to engage in acts that will promote unity and understanding at all times.

Politics › IPOB Unrest: NLC Calls For Retraining Of Military Personnel...News by Stingman(op): 9:39am On Sep 17, 2017

By Senator Iroegbu in Abuja

The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) has called for the retraining of the military to make them more responsible in handling of security issues across the country, especially the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).
To this end, the President of NLC, Comrade Ayuba Wabba, in a statement yesterday by, charged the military authorities to retrain the officers and men on the contemporary ways of handling security challenges.

Wabba also condemned the recent military invasion of the Nigeria Union of Journalists, Abia State Council Press Centre in Umuahia.
Against this backdrop, he urged the security agencies to act with caution, without escalating the already charged atmosphere in the country.
Part of the statement read: “While we applaud the federal government for the steps taken so far by security agencies to secure lives and properties of all Nigerians in all parts of the country, it is important that the agencies, including the military should not act in any manners that provoke situations that ultimately strengthen the cause, capacities and popularity of the advocates of disunity and inter-ethnic strife.

“It is unaccepted that journalists carrying out their legitimate functions can be so dastardly attacked as has been reported of the incident in Umuahia during a security operation by the Nigeria Army. It is the duty of journalists to report, including taking pictures, audio and video recording of incidents anywhere in the country as part of their professional calling. The attack on them, especially at the secretariat of Nigeria Union of Journalists in Umuahia is not only unacceptable but unnecessarily provocative. Although the Nigerian Army has issued a public statement to apologise to the NUJ and the affected journalists while promising to investigate the incident and ultimately discipline the military personnel involved, we advise that the military high command should re-train its officers and men on contemporary ways of handling security challenges in a country under constitutional governance.”

“We also advice the federal government to handle the on-going agitations, which is fast developing into unimaginable inter-ethnic violence that is spreading to some parts of the country as has been reported of Jos in Plateau state, Port Harcourt in River State, Aba and Umuahia in Abia State with utmost dexterity in the interest of peace, unity and collective interest of the entire country and her citizens.
“Culprits of threats to our national integrity, nationhood and sovereignty must be apprehended and tried in accordance with extant national laws and international conventions without taking any further steps that will create another mayhem; as we have been contending with in the north east,” he added.

The NLC also advises that the governors as chief security officers of their states, must be made to take responsibilities for the growing security challenges that ultimately threaten the collective interests and unity of Nigerians.

Togolese forces are sweeping numerous parts of Lome, the capital, after reports emerged that IPOB leader, Nnamdi Kanu, was found hiding in an unmarked building allegedly used by women of loose morals. The ongoing search for the fleeing IPOB leader is expected to continue until he is found and arrested, according to Togolese authorities, who have assured Abuja that everything is being done to fish out the rebel leader from wherever he may be hiding. Several Togolese prostitutes have allegedly been arrested in connection with the search, and are currently facing interrogation with regard to the whereabouts of the man known to his semi-literate followers as the 'Dilector'.

There are also conflicting reports that Kanu may have dressed up as a lady to evade the Togolese authorities prior to their arrival in the said building.
