AT least, two persons were feared dead in Aba, the commercial capital of Abia State on Monday following a protest by members of Indigenous People of Biafra.
The pro-Biafra supporters had defied several warnings by the state government and security agencies against protesting the continued detention of the Director of Radio Biafra, Mr. Nnamdi Kanu.
It was gathered that the group marched through major roads in the city, chanting solidarity songs in support of their detained leader.
But the protest, it was learnt turned violent when members of the group attempted blocking the Aba-Enugu highway and were dispatched by a team of the military and police.
