102 Obigbo Residents Illegally Arrested Released [Full List]

102 out of 112 residents of the Obigbo area in Rivers State who were illegally arrested and detained by the Nigerian Army have been released.

It was learned that the residents were arrested during a raid between November and December 2020, and detained at the Army Commando Base in Suleja, Niger State.

Naija News gathered that while 102 of them were still alive, four of them were dead, while six others were still unaccounted for.

In a statement on Wednesday by a civil group, International Society for Civil Liberties and the Rule of Law, the residents have not been charged to court nor given a fair trial.

The statement added that the families and lawyers of most of the victims had not been allowed to see them till date.

It reads: “The 112 mostly Igbo civilian residents of Obigbo residency have for almost nine months remained in the Nigerian Army’s Alpha Military Commando Base located along Bida-Suleja Road, Bida in Niger State. They have also been held secretly without administrative or court bail.

“Following the discovery of some secret locations where the abductees were taken to and held, in addition to public and media outcries and efforts of Barrister Richard Okoroafor, Intersociety and leadership of the Indigenous People of Biafra, 283 were judicially rescued and over 270 have remained in secret custody of the Nigerian Army.”

According to the civil group, the names of the deceased persons are: Ekweme Thomas, Pius Onochie, Obinna Akapuru and Monday Ifeanyi

It added that the remaining persons unaccounted for are: Iwuoma Bright, Ochi Jacob, Nwakaego Ibe, Ebube Kelvin and Elvis Chigbu

The group, however, released the names of the 102 abducted Obigbo residents released recently.
