One of the survivors of the attack against the Indigenous People of Biafra by the joint personnel of the police and the Department of State Security says he had to run into a Catholic church to escape shooting from the security agents during the killing of their members in Emene, Enugu State, last week.
The survivor said contrary to claims by the police and the DSS that the IPOB first attacked the law enforcement agents, the youth only picked up sticks and stones to defend themselves after they were shot at. He said they were unarmed. They demanded to know where IPOB members, who escaped from Emene Community Secondary School where they were having a meeting, had run to.“They have been doing house-to-house searches, stopping people on buses, checking peoples’ phones,” he said. “If they see any Biafran symbol on your phone, they will arrest you. People cannot walk on the streets. They have been patrolling everywhere.”
She said Emene had been calm since the killings. “IPOB guys have never carried arms. They don’t act violently or harass people. Even though they want Biafra, they know they have to maintain the peace,” she said.
