Some of the women, mostly of middle age and from the Southeast states, were half nude, while others dressed in black and marched through the streets of Owerri. The police in Imo on Friday arrested some women protesting over the continued detention of Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) for allegedly conducting an unlawful assembly.
NAN reports that the demonstrators disrupted vehicular movement as they chanted war songs and displayed different placards with inscriptions asking the Federal Government to release Kanu.
They asked Govenor Rochas Okorocha to help them actualise their dream of getting Biafra.
The women later barricaded the popular Government House Roundabout and created a chaotic atmosphere around the area. BUY ONLINE HERE
When a special team of police men sent by the Commissioner of Police, Mr Dasuki Galadanchi, arrived at the scene, the protesters broke into a dance.
Some of them pulled off their clothes and danced naked, while others lay on the ground and dared the police.
The police succeeded in arresting some of the protesters after in spite of their offering serious resistance.
Commenting on the development, the Police Public Relations Officer, Mr Andrew Enwerem, said the women were arrested for conducting an illegal assembly and holding an unlawful protest.
