Biafrans do not need military in BiafraLand

You Nigerians are very difficult people. The army is active in your region you still complain. What the hell do people want?

I'm sha in Anambra now and as at yesterday nothing was happening anywhere So I don't know where this news is from.

Soludo is getting worst than Uzodimgba of imo state.who did this to igbo politicians

Why am I following this handle? God forbid bad thing!

But they said Buhari is not doing anything, and that their gunmen should be left alone. Confused hypocrites.

meanwhile bandits are operating freely in Kaduna a rev fr was murdered in his farm in Kaduna just yesterday, Zamfara state gov have given it's citizen the right to buy guns for themselves, meanwhile all the Nigerian armed forces are in the east killing civilians.

Useless military power lies in the East while killer herdsmen and bandits ravage the Christian community in north.

Am ashamed of these country, a country were I can't be Proud, brag of.our govt.keep deploying military in every part of east as if bandit ar alover dere.were dey should deployed military,dey just keep quiet.dis country is dead by our corrupt leaders.may una keep on deceiving us.

If the government choices to leave the north at the mercy of bandits, why we make the east a peaceful place to avoid their presence. When some arrogate power to themselves in a country where theirs law such Will be experienced.

Northern states are burning but Buhari men are in the east killing innocent men and women

This is the one Nigeria u guys want? Those military are Fulani terrorists wearing uniform.., but we will defeat all of them put together... BiafraExit FreedomForMNK ✊🏾

What do we expect when the Millitary keep Killing and abducting innocent youths? Since there's no justice, or talk about the ongoing genocide in Igboland, the youths want the justice by all means.

While the bandits,kidnappers and Boko Haram are killing daily in southern Kaduna and people are rendered displaced /killed everyday.

No bad things last forever, I believe all this things will soon be over. Ka chineke meze okwu Amen!!!

Give it to them wotowoto

Nice one

The same people can not Interface with bandits?

Why are we not seeing this kind of army brutality in kaduna and zamfara? I bet you if the fulanis were to unleash this their army on their terrorist kinsmen wasting lives in the north things wouldn't be as bad as they are there. But they will not, after all they are all fulani.

Why not do same in the North where you have the real criminals,suicide bombers,herdsmen, kidnappers e.t.c

Welcome to the fulani caliphate type of democracy.

Nigerian army are committing war crimes in the East, while terrorists are overrunning the north

Clash of the Titans They won't go back to North and clash with Fulani Herdsmen.

For where please 🙄

These terrorists in uniform called Nigerian Army should leave the east & go & face their counterparts in the north

Your services are urgently needed in Zamfara State.

I seem not to understand why the Nigeria Army is always active in the East but left the North to the mercy of Bandits, killer herdsmen and Boko Haram. Why wont the govt focus same energy in the North. I see the fight against insecurity as a shamble, one sided with a hidden motive

Can they clash with bandits in the North please? No dey come east dey carry shoulder for my people.

Nigeria Army should go to Northern Nigeria where terrorist and bandits are killing citizens on daily basis, instead of coming to South East to kill innocent civilians unjustly. This nonsense should stop!

Na there them dey get strength. Them no go go clash for Zamfara, Borno, and all those terrorist infested northern states

Their regular trade marks... While killer herdsmen, bandits and terrorists are in our forests killing, kidnapping, rapping and maiming innocent citizens that the army has sworn to protect. Incompetent and clueless government

The unknowns or the knowns?

Their kidnapped 22 in abaji FCT abuja on Thursday Abi Friday and nothing have been done to rescue them, Abi military no de Abj again ?

Any nigerian army in the East, their blod will be used to appease our land!

The same terrorists soldiers that cannot rescue kidnapped victims of fulani terrorists in Kaduna state.

Taaa..na lie nothing happened anywherr in anambra

Sahara try stating the particular place next time.

Why is this so rampant in this particularl part of the country?

Use same energy in the North that needs it most

Is Nigeria military only against the East and the south Are they not seeing what is going on in the north? This is Nigeria

stop this ur fake report. Soldiers has been kîlling ukpor youths since three days now. The soldiers didn't clashed with anybody. People in ukpor are already relocating because of the continuous kîlling of youths in dat area by soldiers. Even in abatete

The hone of one presidential candidate who is Afraid to about his region but keep calling China like his home town. Only the people in the state can find solutions
