A socio-political group in Southeast Nigeria, Igbo National Council INC, has raised alarm over what it termed as the arbitrary and unprovoked arrest of Igbo youths and women in some communities in Ohaji-Egbema and Oguta local government areas of Imo state respectively by the Nigerian Army.
The INC in a statement signed by its President, Chilos Godsent and on Wednesday, called on Imo Governor, Hope Uzodinma and President Muhammadu Buhari-led federal government to quickly intervene and stop the Army from further raiding and arresting youths and women of these communities over allegation of being members of IPOB.
“We would not want the repeat of the Oyigbo saga in Rivers State where over five hundred Igbo Youths and Women were arrested, adopted and taken to a secret detention base in the North region of Nigeria where some of them have alleged to have died out of trauma and torture and till now many had not returned.
The Igbo socio-cultural organization further called on well-meaning people of Imo State, Igbo nation and Nigeria, in general, to quickly rise to condemn the ongoing extra-judiciary killings of Igbo youths and women, allegedly being carried out by the Nigerian Army.
