Nigerian army soldiers have been accused
of murdering pro-Biafran activists in cold blood after they arrested them.
According to a well placed source who spoke anonymously, several young
Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) members were on their way from Owerri to Aba
to attend a meeting. As you can see from the photo below, which was taken by a
passing motorcyclist, the young men were apparently detained by Nigerian army
soldiers en route.
After they
were detained, the IPOB activists were allegedly beaten bloody by the soldiers
and had their hands tied behind their backs. The young men were not heard from
after that, however a few weeks the remains of several young men were dig up
from beside the road near Aba. The corpses of the young men were said to have
been found with their hands tied behind their back.
IPOB has
said it will present the photograph at the International Criminal Court in The
Hague as further evidence of the crimes against humanity committed by the
Nigerian security forces against Igbos and pro-Biafrans. The pro-Biafra group
has also called on the Nigerian federal government to stop its persecution of
Igbos and young people in the south and southeast of Nigeria.
