The Igbo group claimed that the Nigerian Army has continued to raid some communities in Imo State to effect the arrest of youths and women who the Army suspects of being members of the Indigenous Peoples of Biafra IPOB, and having links with the Eastern Security Network ESN.
The INC in a statement signed by its President, Chilos Godsent and on Wednesday, called on Imo Governor, Hope Uzodinma and President Muhammadu Buhari-led federal government to quickly intervene and stop the Army from further raiding and arresting youths and women of these communities over allegation of being members of IPOB.
