Clash between Army and Eastern security network (orlu Nigeria)

Reports say members of the Eastern Security Network (ESN), the militant arm of the proscribed and secessionist Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), had clashed with soldiers in Orlu.

The report reaching us was that people where having drinks in their local bar and the armed forces attack them and subsequently they fought back. These had led to many killings numbers unkwown.

A curfew has been placed by the state governor Hope Uzodinma and it is believed that calm has been restored
