We re just getting reports from Onitsha that a team of military and police detachment have attacked unarmed civilians during a peaceful demonstration in Onitsha for the restoration of Biafra .
This happened today after members of IPOB had a successful meeting, and decided to have a peaceful rally/evangelism as always before the Nigeria police struck.
According to eye witnesses, 11 people were hit with bullets and 3 have so far confirm dead and the number of the casualty is expected to rise as many IPOB members jumped into canal and gutter to escape the massacre.
Eye witnesses confirmed that many of the IPOB members received gun shot wounds and machete cuts on the head and body.
Our sources say the police came from both sides blocking the road with armoured tank and started shooting from both directions.
The hospitals has so far refused to attend to the wounded, demanding for police report first before treatment.
