The arrest took place after they took to the streets of Aba on Monday, June 8, to protest against the “killing of Christians and Biafrans in the country”.
Members of the proscribed group who were spotted with Biafran flags, charms and different insigna started off the protest from the popular Ala Oji Flyover in Ugwunagbo Local Government Area and later terminated at SAMECK junction of Ariaria International Market.
