IPOB’s Denial Of Their Involvement In The South East Insecurity, CDS Christopher Musa Responds

General Christopher Musa, the Chief of Defense Staff, has reacted to the Indigenous People of Biafra’s (IPOB) denial of any role in the Southeast’s ongoing insecurity. In spite of their assertions, he said, it is generally acknowledged that IPOB, the Eastern Security Network (ESN), and other criminal groups are to blame for the region’s continued violence.CONTINUE FULL READING>>>>>

He also contrasted the profiles of bandits in the Northeast, who he described as largely illiterate, with those in the Southeast, who are more aware of the implications of their actions. He argued that this motivates the IPOB members to deny their involvement in order to evade arrest and prosecution.

He said in an interview with Arise TV, ”They always want to deny, but everybody knows, and they know that they are the ones. It’s IPOB, ESN, and again, criminal elements that are behind this insecurity in the South East.

You know, normally, when there is impunity, a lot of criminals take advantage of that, and everybody wants to be part of it. And that is what is happening. The bandits in the Northeast, basically, most of them are illiterate, and not too well learned, like the ones in the Southeast.

So, they know the implications of what they are doing, and that’s why they want to deny their involvement, because, in case they are being arrested, they don’t want to be prosecuted.”CONTINUE FULL READING>>>>>
