| Saboteur Temple Ude. Chairman Enugu market |
Scores of Biafran activists holding an awareness evangelism at Ogbete Market in Enugu state for the global "FREE NNAMDI KANU CAMPAIGN" coming up on September 23, were on Monday evening arrested by a joint section of Nigerian police and military in connivance with the Chairman of the market who has been revealed to be a staunch APC loyalist and supporter of President Muhammadu Buhari.
Also arrested is a renowned Family Writers Journalist and Intelligence Officer, Mr. Kingsley Chibuzor, who was covering the rally.
Reliable sources from Ogbete market has revealed that Mr. Temple Ude, the chairman of the market association has never been in support of Biafra or the leadership of Nnamdi Kanu, even as he has in the past week sworn that Ogbete market can never take part in the Biafra holiday/"SIT-AT-HOME-DAY" that has been scheduled to be observed across Biafra land and environs on Friday, September 23, as a protest against the impunitious incarceration of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of IPOB by the tyrannical government of President Muhammadu Buhari.
One of the traders at Ogbete market who spoke to Family Writers revealed that their Chairman, Mr. Ude had invited the Biafran activists into his office for a roundtable discussion. Meanwhile, the activists who were at the time going round the market and sensitising the traders concerning the protest day, pended everything they were doing to answer the clarion call of the market Chairman. However, few minutes in Mr. Ude's office, the unthinkable happened-
"They are up to 12 or 15 in number, going round the market and explaining to people why they should observe the public holiday, they even came to my shop and I promised them I won't open my shop for the love I have for Biafra and Nnamdi Kanu," a trader spoke on condition of anonymity.
Continuing he said- "As they were going to other places, our chairman sent a message across to them to come to his office of which they obeyed, but I was surprised few minutes later when police and army patrol vans arrived and they started beating many of them into their vans and drove off" the trader stated.
When asked if he confirm that the chairman called the security personnel, he said: "I don't know, but how everything happened shows that he has a hand in the arrests, he never supported the public holiday."
The indiscriminate arrest of the Family Writers/Biafra journalist and other Biafran activists has enraged many Biafrans who see the recent development as an evil alliance between the Nigerian government and their bought over puppets in Biafra land to thwart the hardwork of IPOB towards Biafra restoration. Over the months, the enforced disappearance, assassination and incarceration of Biafran activists across Nigeria have increased tremendously.
However, it is indisputable that as the agitation for the restoration of Biafra has reached its all time peak, so has the Nigerian government not relented in their desperation to plant moles and manufacture saboteurs, in order to cause confusion and disunity among Biafrans
