Some gunmen said to be enforcing Monday sit-at-home in the South-East region were said to have killed three soldiers and a policeman in Achi, Oji River local government area of Enugu State on Monday morning.

 

SaharaReporters reported on Sunday that hoodlums attacked a divisional police station in Arum Inyi, also in Oji River Council, killing two people and burning a police station.

 

Although, IPOB has said that anybody enforcing sit-at-home is a criminal and that security agencies resist them, the government insists that the group is behind the violent enforcement of the sit-at-home order.

 

IPOB has also denied any involvement in the killings going on in Southeast States.

 

However, some policemen and soldiers in a viral video on Tuesday lamented the killing of their colleagues, as they hurled insults on IPOB.

 

The video seen by SaharaReporters on Tuesday shows four bodies of slain security agents lying on the ground while some voices lamented in the background.

 

One of the voices could be heard saying, "Three of our men, they killed; three soldiers were killed. Wonders shall never end; wonders shall never end! See human beings, na so this life be? Na so this life be? (Is this how life is?) The life is terrible, the heart is full of evil. IPOB, it will no go better for you people (It won’t be well with IPOB members). IPOB it will no go better for you people. See our men, all our men.

 

"See Awudu is dead, see Muhammad is dead, see Labo is dead, MTN is dead, Edwin is dead. You see how human being die like fowl (See how human beings die like fowls). God have mercy. Which kind life we de self (What kind of world do we live in)? This life is full of evil. Now now people we de together is dead body. One day shall never end, one day shall never end. Now now people we de together come be dead body (People who used to be with us are now)."
