Preliminary estimates of body count from genocidist Muhammadu Buhari-ordered massacre of unarmed Igbo youth in Biafra on 14 September, 2017: “over 400 dead” (report filed Friday 22 September 2017)

By A Correspondent, Aba, 1146HRS, September 22, 2017

HARD NUMBERS on the victims of the on-going military crackdown ordered by Nigeria’s genocidist president Muhammadu Buhari have started to trickle in.

Pieces of information made available to this correspondent on the casualties of victims of the September 14, 2017 massacre of unarmed Igbo youth in just the Abia state administrative areas alone are staggering. 

The numbers that are still being compiled by field investigators who are nowhere close to the middle of their painful forensic undertaking indicate that more than 800 (eight hundred) casualties of the massacre that took place in the Afara Ibeku, Umuahia country residence of IPOB leader, Nnamdi Kanu, and its environs include “over 400 dead, 400 terminally wounded and thousands arrested and detained indefinitely in undisclosed locations without charge”.

According to the source, “investigators have recovered over 88 corpses of Igbo youths from in and around Mr. Nnamdi Kanu’s residence in Afara, Umuahia … executed by Nigerian security agencies in the night of 14 September, 2017 alone”.

Eye witnesses report that “35 dead bodies” were removed by the soldiers from the scene following their brazen massacre.  The tactic of quickly removing the bodies of their victims is indicative of the systematic and premeditated orders that soldiers who were deployed to carry out this massacre were handed by their superiors ahead of and preparatory for their deployment.

This correspondent learned that field investigators, who are still busy at work, are compiling the list of casualties in the September 14, 2017 massacre that took place in the nearby city of Aba and the other locations in the Abia state administrative area.

IT IS ON record that the governor of Abia state, Dr Okezie Ikpeazu, is already implicated in the previous acts of extrajudicial executions and massacre of unarmed, non-violent agitators for a Referendum for self-determination by Igbo youth carried out by Muhammadu Buhari’s forces, known to have taken place in the Abia state area since 2015.  Dr Ikpeazu’s name is on the list of 16 individuals who have been named in the Tort suit filed in a Washington, DC, US federal court on behalf of victims by Attorney Bruce Fein’s law firm.  Also named in that suit is General Tukur Yusuf Buratai, who is also Buhari’s army chief, and 14 others.

The sources that interfaced with this correspondent cautioned that these numbers of victims of the massacre are best taken as estimates because the field investigations that are still underway are also in their early stages.

Nigerian regime begins to move heavy military weaponry into Igboland from the north (Thursday 7 September 2017)

By A Correspondent, Enuugwu, 1952HRS, September 7, 2017

TODAY September 7, 2017, the genocidist Nigerian regime, headed by ailing genocidist trooper Muhammadu Buhari, moved in more than ten pieces of heavy motorized military hardware and weaponry from the Caliphate north into Igboland. The motorized trailer convoy bearing the weapons and hardware and soldier escorts were sighted as they snaked their way into the regional capital, Enuugwu at around 5:45pm. The convoy which came on the Makurdi-Nsukka-Enuugwu trunk road followed back streets into the city.

They were sighted as they made their entry when dusk was already descending on the city on a rain-drenched day. The timing is probably intentional to avoid many eye witnesses in the bustling city.

The convoy then made its way to the part of Abakaliki Road where the army’s 82 Division formation outpost is located, where it parked alongside the road in line and waited. The escorts fanned out along it and kept close watch. It is still there at about 6:45pm when this correspondent took leave of the place to file this report after driving past it a number of times.

Since the convoy did not drive right into the sprawling grounds of the outpost that lays on the opposite sides of that portion of Abakaliki Road, the likelihood is that the weaponry and hardware will continue its journey later this night to the parts of the Igbo heartland where they will be deployed.

THIS CORRESPONDENT was alarmed by one of the soldier-escorts who jumped down when the convoy got to the junction of the back street and Abakaliki Road and lifted his assault rifle and aimed it at motorists driving on the opposite direction. Although his intention was clearly to stop traffic to make way for his convoy to join the main highway, the tactic of aiming his assault rifle at motorists is not only frightening. It was also indicative of the wanton bestial disregard of the Igbo by elements of the Hausa-Fulani dominated Nigeria military.

Poor visibility due to the descending dusk incapacitated efforts by this correspondent to capture clear video and still pictures of the convoy on a telephony device.

IT IS ON record that upon his return from an extended medical tourism in the UK, Buhari gave the military specific orders to crush the ongoing agitation for the actualization of the Republic of Biafra in the southeast in a referendum
