Intimidation and killing of Biafrans (IPOB) by Nigerian Government

In Nigeria torture is never a criminal offence though it is prohibited in 1999 Nigerian constitution. Torture has become a routine treatment for IPOB members in police cells on peacefully evangelism for Biafra restoration. It happens on this scale because nobody is held accountable, no radical approach to sack or prosecute those officers involved. IPOB members in various cells in Nigeria have been denied access to lawyer, families and justice. They are beaten, poured alcohol and the women have tear gas fired into their private part. We are witnessing the latest sensation in practical terrorism.
The unabated arrest, torture, Intimidation, killing of Biafrans, detention of widows, orphans, aged men and women, whose offence is"Listening to Radio Biafra". We are experiencing executive lawlessness, the indiscriminate arrest and extortion of civilians with "Radio Biafra App" on their mobile devices or caught buying transistor Radio with 19 meter band. This criminalized torture, incommunicado detention is intended to help DSS police locate where relay station are hidden or find and kill principal officers of Indigenous People of Biafra.
In another direction, BokoHaram members recently re absorbed into the military are now all over Biafra land, armed to the tooth with identity card tagged "HERDSMEN" a government licensed to invade rural villages, killing men and raping Biafran women in the farm. No effort to arrest them, interrogate and prosecute them, No effort to find out their sponsors, their ache of arms etc and deal with them in accordance with law.
The Nigeria media has compromised, and mortgaged social activism by their bias and sentimental reportage, especially on fatal issues affecting Biafra land. There is fear and terror everywhere in Biafra land. It is high time Human right groups particularly Amnesty international beam their search light over Biafra land and take important step forward to end this evil and abhorrent practice against indigenous people of Biafra.
