The leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, has announced the launch of the Eastern Security Network (ESN).
According to Kanu, during a live Facebook post, ESN was established to defend the people of the Eastern Region from terrorists and bandits allegedly trooping in from the North.
“Unveiling the Eastern Security Network. This Is our answer to insecurity and Fulani terrorism,” Kano wrote on Facebook.
The IPOB leader, in another Facebook broadcast monitored, blamed the South East and South-South governors for the upsurge of killings by bandits and herdsmen in ‘Igboland’.
In the video, more than 500 young people in an undisclosed location were on parade.
They were dressed in a black uniform with red and green beret.
“Gbosa (salute) for our leader (Kanu); it is not easy to gather an army like this,” one of them said in the video.

Recall that IPOB has been designated as a terrorist group by the Federal Government. An Abuja Federal High Court judgment had also affirmed its proscription as a terrorist organisation.
Kanu, in the new video which is now trending on social media, said, “We are going to announce our preparedness to defend our land of Biafra, having to wait for many years for our governors in our land, the entire South-East and South-South to do what their counterparts in Yoruba land did and even what the terrorist Meyetti Allah managed to do which our governors have failed to do till this very day.
