The Nigerian army and police officers reportedly stormed a church in Enugu state on Sunday morning, May 30, 2021, and arrested over 50 members over claims that they belong to the secessionist group Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).

According to reports, church service was ongoing when the security personnel arrived at the church on Owerri Road.

In a video which has since gone viral, shows the policemen ordering the male church members to march out with their hands in the air.

A source told SaharaReporters: "The Nigeria police and military have just stormed a church in Owerri Road, Enugu State, molesting over 50 men, both old and young while matching them to an unknown destination."

"We are bringing this to the attention of the world. The lives of these men should not be wasted for no crime committed. They were only at a place of worship today being Sunday the 30th of May 2021 and no arms were found with them."
