Why The Silent On The Part Of The Army After Their Encounter With ESN
Why The Silence From Nigeria Army Over Their Attack On Orlu ESN? There have been deep silence from the Nigeria Army over the outcome of the Air and land attack by the Nigeria Air force and Army. Videos were made by Biafrans living close to the areas Nigeria military attacked, showing that indeed Nigeria Air force used military helicopter to attack ESN. So no one can say without appearing to be lying that the attack didn't happen. But since the attack happened Nigeria military that are good at bragging with those they killed have remained silent. And I have come to the conclusion that it might be that actually they were the ones that suffered casualties. For Nigeria army to invade ESN camp without brandishing picture and videos of the area or parade people being killed or arrested is a sign that they are randomly defeated by the ESN. The words of Gov Hope Uzodimma after the attack also proved to an extent this same point. He called ESN hoodlums and at the same time said they must be treated as murderers. The question you have to ask yourself is this. Who did ESN murder? ESN only drives herdsmen out of our forests. Could it be that those that went to kill ESN members actually got what they bargained for? Is that why the governor called them murderers? But can a man on self defense be tagged a murderer? The questions that will keep hunting Nigeria government and her military are these. Why attack ESN and not bandits? Why attack ESN and not Fulani herdsmen terrorists?
