Nigerian Military and IPOB Exchanges Gunfire on Eastern Security Network (ESN) in Orlu, Imo State

The Nigerian Military and IPOB Exchanges Gunfire on Eastern Security Network (ESN) in Orlu, Imo State. The clash between soldiers and members ESN in Orlu, Imo state today has resulted in some deaths & this is unfortunate. I call for restraint on both sides. The soldiers ought to be deployed against killer herdsmen and not ESN. When will Buhari learn. Chidera Agu please stay safe. See some of the tweets on twitter:
