A disturbing video has gone viral on social media, showing the shocking moment a group of armed men believed to be members of Operation Udo Ga-Achi, popularly called the Agunechemba Vigilante Group, stormed a National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) lodge in Anambra State.
In the clip, the men, who were carrying guns, could be seen attacking a young corps member identified as Jennifer Edema Elohor and some of her colleagues. The footage captured Elohor being beaten mercilessly and stripped naked while the men continued to intimidate the other corps members in the lodge.
The Haven 360 Foundation, a human rights group, shared the video on Facebook on Monday and strongly condemned the incident. According to the foundation, the vigilante group not only brutalised the corps members but also subjected them to humiliation and threats of a sexual nature.
The foundation revealed that the vigilantes accused the corps members of being involved in internet fraud, commonly known as yahoo yahoo. Despite the corps members quickly presenting their NYSC identity cards and uniforms to prove who they were, the vigilantes still refused to listen and continued their violent assault.
Giving more details, the group explained that the attack happened on July 23, 2025, when the vigilantes stormed the lodge and immediately began harassing the occupants. Sadly, the situation became most severe in the case of Jennifer Elohor, who was beaten until she bled and was stripped of her clothes, leaving her completely exposed in front of others.
In addition to the physical attack, the corps members were also subjected to verbal abuse and degrading comments. Some of the vigilantes allegedly made threats of sexual violence, further traumatising the already shaken victims.
The Haven 360 Foundation described the assault as a clear violation of human rights and called for urgent action from the government and security agencies to bring the perpetrators to justice. They stressed that corps members, who are serving their nation under the NYSC scheme, must be protected and not treated in such a cruel and dehumanising manner.
