A civil rights group, International Society for Civil Liberties and Rule of Law (Intersociety), has made shocking allegations against security agencies and non-state actors in the South-East region of Nigeria.

In a statement issued on Thursday, the group claimed that at least 180 people were killed within December 2024 and January 2025, while over N21 billion was extorted from the people of the region within the same period.

According to Intersociety, the killings, abductions, and disappearances were aimed at violently seizing and pocketing billions of Naira, particularly during the Christmas and New Year celebrations.
