A detachment of the Nigerian Army has allegedly surrounded the home of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) leader, Nnamdi Kanu.
According to reports, the soldiers arrived in Umuahia with about 10 Armoured Carrier Vehicles and seven Hilux vans to surround Kanu’s Afaraukwu compound today.
This incident is coming only days after soldiers clashed with members of IPOB while trying to gain access to the group’s leader’s house on Sunday.
Reports earlier said that soldiers had tried to gain access into Kanu’s father’s compound and shot at IPOB members who formed a human shield to keep them out, the army has dismissed the claims and said the soldiers had been attacked with stones while passing through the residence in a new armoured carrier.
