The leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, has once again berated the Department of State Services (DSS) over the killings of IPOB members in Emene, Enugu State, southeast Nigeria.
Naija News understands that officials of the Department of State Services (DSS) clashed with members of the pro-Biafra group in Emene community primary school, Enugu state last Sunday. The clash in its wake left 21 IPOB members as well as two DSS operatives dead.
Reacting to the attack during a live broadcast on Radio Biafra, Kanu had said the Nigerian security agents are trying to provoke members of his group, adding that the “reason they keep doing this, is because they killed us in Nkpor, Igweocha and they also came to my house and slaughtered at will, and nothing happened.”
The IPOB leader had said “I want somebody to ask the police today, you left your Barack, your station to go to somebody’s compound to kill people today. Was there any provocation? I challenge everyone and journalist to tell the world what wrong we did.
“The reason why they keep doing this is because they killed us in Nkpor, Igweocha and they also came to my house and slaughtered at will, and nothing happened.
“They are trying to provoke us, it seems there is an unfinished business that the Fulani will like to finish as soon as possible. The question I have to ask is this, will such a thing happen in Ariwa and Oduduwa land, of course, the answer is No.”
Revisiting the matter ina a tweet on the micro-blogging site on yesterday, Kanu asked what the difference between Nigeria’s secret police that went to where “civilians were having a meeting and opened fire killing 21 young men and Boko Haram that went to a village market opened fire killing 15 people.”
The IPOB leader tweeted: “The question we are all asking: What is the difference between Nigeria’s Fulani run state secret police known as DSS that went to where civilians were having a meeting & opened fire killing 21 young men and Boko Haram that went to a village market opened fire killing 15 people?”
