The IPOB said this in reaction to threat by the herders' group that they
would avenge the death of every herdsman killed in the South-East.
The Indigenous People of Biafra says members of the Miyetti Allah Kautal
Hore will meet their demise if they attempt to hurt any Nigerian of
Igbo extraction in the country.
While speaking through a
statement by its spokesman, Emma Powerful, the Nnamdi Kanu-led group
said the Miyetti Allah will lose if it tries to carry out its threat.
The IPOB said this in reaction to threat by the herders' group that they
would avenge the death of every herdsman killed in the South-East.
SaharaReporters
had earlier reported how the Miyetti Allah Kautal Hore vowed to take
both legal and cultural actions in avenging the killing of its 50
members, it said had died in the hands of the IPOB in the last one
month.
Spokesman for the group, Saleh Alhassan, disclosed this
while reacting to the killing of one of the commanders of Indigenous
People of Biafra gunned down by security operatives last Saturday.
Alhassan,
speaking on Thursday had said, “The security agencies should intensify
efforts in dealing with all those terrorists killing Fulani herders,
burning police stations, prisons and destroying institutions in the
South-East.”
Alhassan said at least 50 herders had been killed in the South-East in
the last one month, adding that his group would avenge the death of
those members.
He said, “So far, more than 50 herders have been
killed in the South-East in the last one month, we have the record and
the Igbo terrorists led by Nnamdi Kanu will pay for everybody they
killed.
“It is unfortunate that they have forgotten history, how
we saved a lot of Igbos in the North during the Civil War but now they
are killing our people. They are making a grievous mistake. We will take
necessary steps, both legal and cultural steps, to avenge the killings
of our members.”
Reacting on Thursday night, the IPOB said such
an intimidation was meant for the South-East governors, not for the
pro-Biafra group.
It added that it would 'be blood for blood.'
"Miyetti
Allah, hear this: IPOB is not South-East Governors that you can
threaten and get away with. We are the same IPOB that collapsed the
#Zoo," the IPOB partly said in the statement.
It further reiterated that its major task is to kill the Fulani murderers marauding as herders.
"We are after every killer herdsman. We’re after you Fulani terrorists and murderers masquerading as herdsmen.
"If
you implement this your threat, it shall be your last. We no longer
believe in turning the other cheek, it is now blood for blood and you
will lose," the statement concluded.
