The Nigerian army has said that its troops under Operation Udoka at the weekend raided a suspected camp of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) in Ezioha forest, Mbaitoli Local Government Area of Imo State and exhumed three corpses.
The Commander of 34 Artillery, Obinze, Brig-Gen. Usman Lawal, who disclosed this to newsmen in Owerri said that the forest, which also links Oru East in Njaba, and Mbaitoli local government areas had served as kidnappers’ den.
The camp, according to him, was controlled by one B44, a suspected IPOB commander, in the state.
Lawal said: “Three corpses were exhumed from a shallow grave in the forest while several car number plates, vehicle particulars, car keys, and personal belongings believed to be properties of kidnapped victims were recovered in the operation.”
