A
video showing the Nigerian Army transporting armoured tanks into the
South-eastern region in Nigeria allegedly to tackle the Biafra uprising
has surfaced.
Just few days ago, it was reported that security operatives have
increased the number of their personnel in the South-East and
South-South zones of the country as part of measures to prevent a breach
of peace, which may result from the activities of Biafran agitators
ahead of the upcoming Anambra State governorship election.
The police also reportedly said it was waiting for court
pronouncement for the arrest of the leader of the Indigenous People of
Biafra, IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu.
Nigerian government had previously demanded that the Federal High
Court in Abuja revoke the bail granted to Kanu. It seems the free days
of Mr. Kanu, a United Kingdom returnee are numbered following
allegations of him breaching his bail conditions.
At least 10 trailers conveying armoured tanks and military hardware
were seen entering the South East as residents and passersby watched in
panic.
According to reports, the security operatives have placed the
leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, under
surveillance to prevent him from fleeing the country should the court
revoke his bail and order his re-arrest for allegedly flouting his bail
conditions.
