Military on secret mission to de-populate Igbo youths, S’East youth leaders allege
On
By Steve Oko, Aba
Coalition of South East Youth Leaders COSEYL, has alleged that the Nigerian military is on a secret mission in the zone to depopulate Igbo youths.
The group, in a tersely-worded press statement, asked the Federal Government to pull out troops deployed in the zone for special operation, accusing them of extrajudicial killings of Igbo youths.
COSEYL was reacting to the killing of a 39-year -old Owerri businessman, Mr. Noel Chigbu by the military at Amakohia junction, for allegedly “ violating their checkpoint rule” on Friday, April 30, 2021; and the unlawful killing of a first -year law student of Imo State University, Divine Nwaneri at a military checkpoint close to Imo State Governor’s Office.
