Unknown gunmen have sent a video message to the Enugu State Government threatening to attack if soldiers were not pulled out of Nsukka within one week.
In the video sent to the Local Government Chairman of Igboeze South, Hon Vitus Okechi, the unknown gunmen said they can no longer tolerate alleged killings by soldiers in Nsukka.
In the video, the gunman who covered his face, addressed one Vitus whom he identified as a local government Chairman somewhere in Nsukka.
The hoodlum was wielding two AK-47 riffles in both hands.
Hear him; “Vitus, Local Government Chairman somewhere in Nsukka.
“I am in Anambra State in my camp, Vitus, I am the commander in Anambra State as a whole. I got reports that you are the one bringing in soldiers into Nsukka. They have been killing my brothers and colleagues; your own brothers.
“From now to one week, we don’t want to see soldiers in Nsukka. Thank God you have seen how we operate, we are not afraid. Don’t say you were not warned.
“We are begging you but if you fail, we will do it by ourselves; we do it our way. You have been seeing it happen. Go to Anambra
“If you want to know who we are, chat us with this number with which we are sending this video. But remember, it’s one week.”
Recall that soldiers were moved into some parts of the Nsukka zone mainly Igboeze North following the occupation of some parts of the area by gunmen.
The activities of the gunmen also led government to impose 6pm to 6am curfew.
Killings and attacks on policemen as well as burning of public buildings such as INEC have been recorded since the siege by the hoodlums.
