Troops of the 82 Division of the Nigerian in collaboration with other security agencies have successfully raided the hideout of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) and its armed affiliate, the Eastern Security Network (ESN), at Imufu in Igbo-Eze North Local Government Area of Enugu State.
Recall, the Chief of Army Staff has made a promise to the NASS, and Nigerians that all the criminality going on in the South-East will soon be history.
This was disclosed by the Director of Army Public Relations Officer, Brig Gen Onyema Nwachukwu, on Friday in Abuja.
He said during the fierce encounter three semi-automatic pump-action rifles and a locally fabricated single-barre by the gallant officers.
In his words, “The Nigerian Army enjoins the general public to remain vigilant and report any untoward activity to the security agencies in support of ongoing operations to curb security challenges.
“The good and enterprising people of South-East Nigeria are also encouraged to discountenance the illegal sit-at-home order and go about their daily activities and businesses without fear of intimidation, as ongoing operations will be sustained to counter the enforcement of the unlawful order,” he said.
