Biafra: Arrest Gumi, Miyetti Allah members like Chiwetalu Agu – Omokri to Army

 

Reno Omokri, a socio-political activist has said Nigerian soldiers should arrest Sheikh Ahmad Gumi and Miyetti Allah organizations for threatening Nigerians.

 

Omokri made the call while reacting to the arrest of Nollywood veteran, Chiwetalu Agu for canvassing for Biafra.

 

Agu was molested by Nigerian Army troops for wearing Biafra clothing.

 

The movie legend was walking within the Upper Iweka Bridge in Anambra when the incident occurred.

 

Two soldiers suddenly accosted, wrestled Agu to the ground and dragged him.

 

Agu was reportedly sharing food to the less privileged persons when government forces stopped him.

 

Speaking on the incident, Brig. Gen. Onyema Nwachukwu, the Army Public Relations, said the veteran actor was apprehended for inciting members of the public and soliciting support for the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).

 

However, Omokri said the arrest of Agu while Gumi and Miyetti Allah members were free showed lack of justice in Nigeria.

 

In a series of tweets, Omokri wrote: “Miyetti Allah hold press conferences to threaten violence on Nigerians and make provocative statements to the effect that Southern Nigeria belongs to them.

 

“Soldiers and DSS don’t arrest them. Chiwetalu Agu wore a Biafran flag and was arrested. Where is the justice?

 

“Sheikh Gumi campaigns for terrorists and sings their praises. Even telling them on camera that Christian soldiers are the ones killing them, thus they should not kill Muslims.

 

“He is free while Chiwetalu Agu was arrested? Nigeria can’t have peace without justice!”
