Provide physical evidence IPOB killed 5 Fulani herdsmen in Abia – Ohanaeze dares DSS

 

The apex Igbo socio-cultural group, Ohanaeze Ndigbo on Wednesday, challenged the Department of State Service, DSS, to provide a concrete evidence to back up its claim that five Fulani herdsmen were killed and buried in a shallow grave by members of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, in Abia State.
This is coming following accusation by the secret police that IPOB members in Abia State were behind the cruel act.
The President General of the Ohaneaeze Ndigbo, Chief Gary Enwo-Igariwey in a statement on Wednesday said, “Ohanaeze is curious and very suspicious of the reasons behind the DSS statement which indicted the IPOB as responsible for the dastardly act.
“Ndigbo demand proper investigation to ascertain those behind the heinous act. They did not act on behalf of Ndigbo and should be brought to book.
While noting noted that Ndigbo are friendly people, Enwo-Igariwey in the statement commiserated with the families of the deceased and leadership of Arewa Consultative Forum over the incident.


“Ndigbo condemn the act of taking human life in any form anywhere in the country. As travellers to other places, Ndigbo are friendly to visitors. All Nigerians are therefore assured of their safety anywhere in Igboland,” the statement added
