Men of the Nigerian Army have reportedly invaded two communities in the Nkanu East and Nkanu West local government areas of Enugu state.
 The affected communities are Ekpoffo and Akpugo.
Although the reason for the invasion could not be immediately ascertained, villagers who spoke from their hidings said it might not be unconnected with the recent sacking of herdsmen who were terrorising the area.
Some also believed that the invasion could be the directive of the Presidency to security agencies to hunt down Biafran agitators in the South-East region.
Community sources told our correspondent that the soldiers invaded Ekpoffo on Wednesday and whisked away some youths to unknown destinations
The Federal Government has assured that the leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra, NNAMDI KANU, will not be denied a fair trial.
This is according to the Minister of Information and Culture, LAI MOHAMMED, who spoke at a press conference in Abuja on his re-arrest.
The Minister stated that KANU was re-arrested through efforts of Nigerian security and intelligence agencies that collaborated with some countries he failed to mention.
He said while the investigation continues, none of the collaborators, irrespective of their standing in the society, will be spared.
According to him, they will all face the full wrath of the law for their activities that challenge our nation's sovereignty and threaten its unity.
 The Minister said NNAMDI KANU, lived a five-star life across several countries, travelling on chartered private jets, living in luxury apartments and turning out in designer clothes and shoes.
