A horrifying video depicting the execution of three young men allegedly by “Gentle the Yahoo” has sparked widespread outrage and fear across social media.
The alleged perpetrator, identified as Ifeanyi Eze (Gentle the Yahoo), is the self-acclaimed commander of the Biafran Liberation Army. The footage shows the cold-blooded killing of his own alleged soldiers, an act he justified as punishment for their betrayal of the movement’s cause.

According to reports from a Facebook user who shared insights into the incident, the execution was a brutal consequence of disobedience. The three victims were allegedly killed for violating the strict rules set by Gentle, specifically for preying on the very people they claim to protect.
The detailed account reveals that the three boys were on a patrol when they encountered a broken-down bus. Instead of merely inspecting the passengers, they proceeded to rob everyone inside, collecting their mobile phones. This action directly contravened the orders of their commander.
In the video itself, Gentle interrogates the boys. He specifically asks if they found any Fulani individuals among the passengers. When they answer in the negative, his anger escalates. He attempts to caution them, emphasizing that the weapons he provided them were not to be used to steal from Igbo people. In a sudden and violent turn, this caution turns into execution. He shoots all three men repeatedly until they die, an act purportedly intended to serve as a dire warning to other members of the group.

The incident presents a complex and grim picture of internal discipline within militant groups and the devastating human cost of their actions.
