Ohanaeze proposes establishment of special commando units in security agencies to curb terror attacks
Ohanaeze Ndigbo, the apex Igbo socio-cultural organization, has urged the federal government to set up special Commando units in the nation’s security agencies to intensify the fight against terrorism in the North-Eastern part of Nigeria.
This came following the renewed attacks on innocent citizens in some parts of Borno State by Boko Haram terrorists, after the federal government’s boast of degrading the nefarious Islamic terror organization. Ibegbu opined that Nigeria would remain in jeopardy, if urgent steps are not taken by government at all levels to defeat the terrorist groups.
The group further blamed Northern elites for the mindless attacks on the region, stressing that inequality and injustice in the North coupled with distorted religious ideologies caused the terror uprising.
