    The Military High Command has promised to bring overwhelming military pressure on the proscribed Independent Peoples of Biafra over the killing of five soldiers at a checkpoint at Aba in Abia State on Wednesday.

    Buba said the military would be fierce in its response to the dastard act and would bring overwhelming military pressure on the group to ensure their total defeat.

    He said the troops of Operation UDO KA deployed at Obikabia Junction Checkpoint in Obingwa Local Government Areas adjourning Aba metropolis in Abia were attacked and sadly killed by terrorist of IPOB/ESN.

    According to him, the troops deployed to enforce peace in the area and protect the citizens were massed attacked by the terrorist.

    He said the terrorist who were in three tinted Prado Toyota SUVs and others from built-up areas surrounding the checkpoint, sprang a surprise attack on the checkpoint.

    โ€œThe attack sadly took the lives of five personnel of the armed forces.
    โ€œThe armed forces mourns these troops as each and every soldier lost in battle is a terrible loss.

    โ€œMeanwhile, investigation are ongoing concerning the attack.

    โ€œOverall, it must be reiterated that the lifeline of the terrorist is the people and this situation is no exemption.

    โ€œWinning the war without the support of the people is close to impossible and the IPOB capitalised on this to perpetrate attacks on the troops.

    โ€œThe situation leave more to be desired.
