This news is in accordance to an eyewitness: “This is happening this morning,
I came across the northern people Leaving Onitsha and Asaba in droves .This
place is popularly called Hausa market in Asaba.”
Following the killings, vandalism by pro- Biafran agitators,
northerners were reported to be leaving Onitsha, the centre of the agitation.
While Northern leaders and groups have assured their
commitment to peace and calm and protection of all lives, Radio Biafra had
called its members to walk to Onitsha and as the group engaged in wanton
violence over the past 3 days, burning the city central mosque, breaking car
windows and mirrors, burning vehicles and shooting and killing innocents and
soldiers including a Suya seller, the northerners in the city appear to have
decided to stay on the side of caution till the security agency gets the upper
hand of the situation.
Meanwhile sister group, MASSOB dissociated itself from IPOB
Radio Biafra “killings and destructions”. The Eze Ndi Igbo in Zamfara yesterday
also denounced the agitators and told Igbos to ignore them.
