POLICE UNCOVER BIGGEST IPOB/ESN BOMB FACTORY IN SOUTHEAST

The police in Ebonyi State said they have uncovered the biggest bomb factory in the southeast operated by the Indigenous People of Biafra(IPOB) and its militia arm, Eastern Security Network(ESN).

Ebonyi Police spokesperson Chris Anyanwu stated this in a statement on Thursday in Abakaliki, capital of the State.

He said the discovery followed an operation by the Police during which its operatives engaged in a gun battle with IPOB/ESN members leading to the death of two of the separatist group members and arrest of one of the state commanders.

According to him, the Police swooped on one of the biggest and most notorious Camps of the IPOB/ESN located at Obegu, a boundary area between Onicha-Isu and Ishielu LGAs of Ebonyi State.
