Ohanaeze Raises Alarm Over Plot To Slaughter Igbos During Yuletide

Ohanaeze Raises Alarm Over Plot To Slaughter Igbos During Yu

Members of Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide have raised an alarm, alleging that security agents in the country have hatched a plot to harass and possibly kill Igbos traveling for the yuletide.

The allegation was made in a statement signed by the group's Secretary-General, Mazi Okechukwu Isiguzoro, and he appealed to security officials to put on a human face while carrying out their operations in the southeast.

According to Ohanaeze, there are attempts by a particular tribe among the security agents to deliberately swindle, delay, molest, and falsely accuse motorists of Igbo origin of being members of IPOB, with the ultimate of maiming or getting them killed.

“We oblige all security agents to put human face while carrying out their operations in the southeast, as there are mechanisms put in place to checkmate all manner of recklessness and unprofessional conduct from any erring security agents, as those caught will be made to face the consequences of their actions", Isiguzoro said via the statement.

"Ndigbo returning home for the Christmas and New Year holidays should be aware of the perilous time and insecurity challenges facing Igbos in the South East.

"With the situation on the ground, it’s advisable for all Igbos to desist from flamboyant and opulent lifestyles that might attract unnecessary attention from criminals and security agents, any Biafra insignias, flags, and uniforms are highly prohibited and forbidden right now in the southeast, we wish to remind Ndigbo that Military Operation Golden Dawn is still on to quell the rebellion against criminals and agitators, all must carry identity cards for means of identification and should be calm whenever being confronted by security agents,” the statement further reads.
