A group, Concerned Ijaw Citizens, has condemned the unwarranted attacks and campaign of calumny against the Nigerian military over the Okoloba/Okuama crisis.
The letter was signed by the group’s Coordinator, Mr Seigha Manager and Publicity Secretary, Chief Andrew Elijah. It said that the target was to blackmail the Armed Forces through deliberate falsehood and unfounded stories in the media space as a ploy to demand for the removal of service chiefs. According to the group, the people of Okoloba believe in pursuing peaceful means to end the conflict and will submit themselves to the Military Board of inquiry set up over the crisis.
