00:00:00,200 –> 00:00:05,919
Nigerian Army has accused Okama community in
the Regali local Government area of Delta States

2
00:00:05,919 –> 00:00:10,919
of resulting to propaganda following the killing
of soldiers by year to be identified armed

3
00:00:10,960 –> 00:00:16,600
group last Thursday. Nigerian Army Authority, in a statement issued on Monday by

4
00:00:16,640 –> 00:00:22,280
its spokesperson, Brigadier General or Yema
Imotuko, indicated that the Okama community that

5
00:00:22,480 –> 00:00:27,839
is complicity in the killing of the
soldiers has resulted to media propaganda. There

6
00:00:27,920 –> 00:00:33,960
is a trended media report on the
internet. Narim the television news media interviewed

7
00:00:34,000 –> 00:00:38,520
a man and a woman who claimed
that the soldiers initially killed over twenty people

8
00:00:38,600 –> 00:00:43,159
after the community resisted the arrest of
some persons during the peace talk at the

9
00:00:43,200 –> 00:00:49,439
community town hall. The same eyewitnesses
also said the soldiers reinforced and over fifty

10
00:00:49,520 –> 00:00:54,880
persons in total were killed. The
Nigerian Army, who frowned at the allegations,

11
00:00:54,960 –> 00:01:00,000
said that the unfortunate killing of troops
of one hundred and eighty one Amphibia

12
00:01:00,200 –> 00:01:04,879
Battalion of the Nigerian Army NA while
only a peaceful and miliatory mission. After

13
00:01:04,920 –> 00:01:10,840
a reported case of communal clash between
Oakuama and Okuonoba communities in the Gillly South

14
00:01:10,920 –> 00:01:15,760
and Bomai local government areas of Delta
States respectively, is not only despeakable but

15
00:01:15,920 –> 00:01:21,599
should be unreservedly condemned by all.
These were troops committed to peace and security

16
00:01:21,640 –> 00:01:26,439
of lives and property of citizens and
loan citizens alike in the Niger Delta Region,

17
00:01:26,959 –> 00:01:30,519
modern in Cone blood by an argued
gang of Akuama community in the most

18
00:01:30,519 –> 00:01:36,719
gruesome, artless and cruel manner and
went ahead to sacriligiously divest their roumains by

19
00:01:36,799 –> 00:01:41,519
ripping out their hearts by the very
people the weather to protect. Regrettably,

20
00:01:42,000 –> 00:01:48,439
the community complicit in this dasturbly art
has resulted to media propaganda and shinnanigans rather

21
00:01:48,519 –> 00:01:53,239
than engage in a positive effort to
fish out the perpetrators of this helious crime.

22
00:01:53,120 –> 00:01:57,840
This again is a clear indication that
the Mother of the Troops was a

23
00:01:57,840 –> 00:02:04,680
communally orchestrated attack against legitimate forces.
The force who being peddled by these criminals

24
00:02:04,680 –> 00:02:07,919
and their cohorts to whip up sentiments
and sung the public to go out and

25
00:02:08,039 –> 00:02:13,599
those all support the outrageous criminal acts
of their armblook Gums should be disregarded in

26
00:02:13,639 –> 00:02:17,960
its entirety. It is only a
ridiculous attempt at justifying their crime rather than

27
00:02:19,080 –> 00:02:23,960
turning themselves to security agencies. There
is no amount of propaganda that would armed

28
00:02:23,960 –> 00:02:29,199
twist the narrative. They are complicit
and must be ready to fence the wrath

29
00:02:29,319 –> 00:02:34,159
of the law. While law abiding
citizens are assured that there will be no

30
00:02:34,240 –> 00:02:38,479
reprisal on the part of the troops, we enjoyed all to go about their

31
00:02:38,520 –> 00:02:44,680
normal activities, even as angling efforts
are killed up to positively identify and isolate

32
00:02:44,759 –> 00:02:49,919
the criminals to account for their atrocious
deeds. The Chief of Army of Staff,

33
00:02:50,280 –> 00:02:54,439
Lieutenant General to Read Labadger, while
commiserating with the foundlings of the officers

34
00:02:54,439 –> 00:02:59,759
and soldiers who lost their lives,
has directed that no stones should be left

35
00:02:59,800 –> 00:03:04,680
on until the perpetrators of those gruesome
acts are apprehended to face the full growth

36
00:03:04,759 –> 00:03:08,479
of the law. Troops are determined
to get to these criminals. There is

37
00:03:08,560 –> 00:03:15,879
certainly no hiding place for them.
Meanwhile, the Minister of Defense Mohammad bad

38
00:03:15,120 –> 00:03:22,000
Albuhbabah and the Minister of States for
Defense Mohammed Belu Matawal has condemned in its

39
00:03:22,000 –> 00:03:25,479
totality the attack on the military parson
during a rescue mission of the one hundred

40
00:03:25,560 –> 00:03:30,400
and eighty one Amphibious Battalion in Okuama
community, Gillly, South Local Government Area

41
00:03:30,439 –> 00:03:36,000
of Delta State, saying that the
perpetrators must be brought to book. It

42
00:03:36,080 –> 00:03:39,159
will be recalled that the killing of
the soldiers occurred on Thursday, March fourteen,

43
00:03:39,280 –> 00:03:45,759
twenty twenty four, when the troops
responding to the crisis between Okuama and

44
00:03:45,800 –> 00:03:52,199
Okonoba communities in Delta State were ambushed. According to the press release issued by

45
00:03:52,280 –> 00:04:00,599
Henshaw Obubika, Director Information and Public
Relations, the ministers seerad the armash at

46
00:04:00,680 –> 00:04:05,759
Oklahma community again in South Local Government
Area of Delta State, resulting in the

47
00:04:05,800 –> 00:04:12,599
tragic loss of the commanding Officer one
hundred and eighty one Amphibious Battalion, Lieutenant

48
00:04:12,639 –> 00:04:17,319
Colonel A Ali, two Majors,
a captain and twelve soldiers, along with

49
00:04:17,360 –> 00:04:24,120
the unfortunate death of a civilian.
Is a matter of grief concern this tragic

50
00:04:24,199 –> 00:04:28,959
incident on this cause, the immense
sacrifices meant by our sismen and women in

51
00:04:29,000 –> 00:04:33,160
the defense of our nation there on, weathering medication and courage in the first

52
00:04:33,199 –> 00:04:41,680
of danger exemplify the highest idols of
patriotism and duty. President Brother Amintainable GCFR

53
00:04:41,720 –> 00:04:46,439
has directed the Chief of Defense Staff
to actively investigate this incident to ensure that

54
00:04:46,600 –> 00:04:51,480
those responsible for this cowardly attack first

55
00:04:51,600 –> 00:04:57,879
ministers opined that we have found our
own weavering commitment to self guarding the security

56
00:04:57,959 –> 00:05:01,240

will not tolerate any threat to our nation’s

57
00:05:01,319 –> 00:05:08,639
sovereignty and stability. Additionally, we
assure the Nigerian people that every effort will

58
00:05:08,680 –> 00:05:13,720
be meant to bring the perpetrators to
justice and we remain resolute in our pursuit

59
00:05:13,800 –> 00:05:17,240

Matall reiterated the federal governments resolved in maintaining

61
00:05:25,800 –> 00:05:30,120

62
00:05:30,319 –> 00:05:35,000
armed forces and their efforts to maintain
peace and stability across the country is not

63
00:05:35,160 –> 00:05:42,639
legoishable. We will continue to work
tirelessly towards achieving lasting peace and tranquility in

every region of our dear country.
Our thoughts and prayers are with the families,

69
00:06:09,319 –> 00:06:14,879

all Nigerians. Lady Greende use the knees

80
00:07:13,399 –> 00:07:14,720
in a more than a way
