‎Major General Oluyemi Olatoye, General Officer Commanding (GOC) of the Nigerian Army’s 82 Division, disclosed this during a security briefing in Enugu, who was represented by the Chief of Staff of the Division, Brigadier General Shuaibu Umar Abubakar, assuring that the Sit- at- Home Orders will soon be forgotten.

‎“I want to assure the public that efforts are still ongoing to ensure that the sit-at-home issue is quashed in all South-Eastern states,”

‎“We are not relenting in our efforts to make sure that every Monday morning, the sit-at-home directive does not work. We are very proactive about that.”

‎According to Olatoye, Operation UDO KA has encountered significant security challenges, primarily driven by the activities of IPOB and ESN. The Operation Udo Ka in the South East Zone has complained over the activities of the IPOB, ESN in Imo, Anambra and Enugu.

‎“IPOB and ESN terrorists, over time, have made efforts to distract law-abiding citizens to pledge allegiance to their group,”

‎ “Consequently, Operation UDO KA has embarked on both kinetic and non-kinetic operations to contain their actions, reduce their freedom of movement, disrupt their collaboration, and ultimately create a secure environment conducive for political and socio-economic development.”

‎The JTF stressed that Operation UDO KA has refined its tactics in line with the mission of the Chief of Defence Staff, which emphasizes a people-centric and professional armed forces capable of delivering on its constitutional mandate.

‎”The activities of IPOB and ESN have been most rampant in Imo State, followed closely by Anambra and Enugu,” he stated. “They have resorted to planting improvised explosive devices (IEDs) along commercial routes, posing a significant threat to lives and economic activity. We are taking concerted measures to mitigate the impact of these attacks.”

‎The military leadership reaffirmed its dedication to sustaining peace-building measures and combating emerging threats. Operation UDO KA, they emphasized, is here to stay until security and normalcy are fully restored in the region.
