BIAFRA : One Nigeria is a deceit —Kanu

 


The leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, on Thursday, said there is no oneness in Nigeria because of the “lies and deceit” of the ruling class.

Kanu stated this while speaking at the ‘2nd Never Again Conference: 51 Years After Nigerian-Biafran Civil War’ organised by an Igbo think-tank, Nzuko Umunna.

The IPOB leader insisted on the secession of Biafra, adding that the entity called Nigeria has failed.

Kanu said the 1966 war was not an Igbo war but a revolution by conscious members of the society, adding that only the South can carry out a revolution because of the way the North is structured.

The IPOB leader said the elite used tribalism and religion to scuttle the revolution that should take place during the EndSARS protests


Kanu blamed the structural problems of the country on the founding fathers of Nigeria who according to him, failed to interrogate the amalgamation of the Southern and Northern protectorates at the onset.

BIAFRA : South-East govs’ security outfit meant to counter our corps – IPOB

 


THE Indigenous People of Biafra has warned the South-East governors to perish the idea of setting up a security outfit in the geopolitical zone.

In a statement by the group’s Media and Publicity Secretary, Emma Powerful, said the region would not have two security outfits; one from IPOB and the other from the governors at a time.

The group specifically warned Ebonyi State Governor, Dave Umahi, who is the Chairman of South-East Governors, to jettison the idea.

The secessionist group accused the governors of trying to set up the outfit on the advice of “Fulani-controlled Federal Government of Nigeria.”

The statement read in part, “We warn these clueless governors in our region not to heed the mischievous advice and attempt by Miyetti Allah and Sokoto caliphate intended to compromise the security of Biafrans.

“Any Miyetti Allah vigilante group under any nomenclature formed by Dave Umahi and his fellow governors as well as Ohanaeze will be resisted by the people of the old Eastern region.

“We, therefore, advise every Biafran father and mother to caution their children against joining  Umahi’s vigilante group as such an outfit is already the enemy of the people. Their agenda is sinister and anti-Biafra.

“We declare without equivocation that any other group parading as South-East and South-South security outfit will not be allowed to operate on Biafra soil. Our people have already launched their own defence line – ESN – as our self-acclaimed leaders were nowhere to be found when it counted most.

The raping, killings and unprovoked attacks by these vampires must stop throughout Biafra territory. Anyone against this irreversible resolve of the people to defend themselves against foreign occupation will be crushed.”

Reacting, a member of the South-East Governors’ Forum Media Directorate, who pleaded not to be mentioned, said, “I will not discuss that now because of its sensitive nature. Besides, it’s a recent matter; I cannot circumvent the governors I’m working with and speak on the matter.”

BIAFRA : IPOB to S’east govs Perish parallel security outfit in Biafraland


The Indigenous Peoples of Biafra (IPOB) has warned southeast Governors particularly Governor Dave Umahi to jettison the proposed new security outfit in the zone.

It warned that any other group parading as southeast and South-South Security outfit would not be allowed to operate on Biafra soil.

The group in a statement issued by the Media and Publicity Secretary, Emma Powerful, maintained that whoever enlisted in any treacherous security outfit sponsored by Fulani stooges in the region to desteblize the territory would regret such decision.

It alleged that the plan based on the advice of the Fulani-controlled Federal Government of Nigeria was targeted at countering the formidable Eastern Security Network, ESN, protecting and defending Biafrans

The statement read in part, “We know that their intention is to counter the formidable Eastern Security Network, ESN, protecting and defending Biafrans against terrorists and invaders responsible for the senseless attacks, rapings and wanton killings of our mothers, wives and sisters in our farmlands and forests.

“We warn these clueless governors in our region not to heed the mischievous advice and attempt by Miyetti Allah and Sokoto caliphate intended to compromise the security of Biafrans.

“Any Miyetti Allah vigilantee group under any nomenclature formed by Dave Umahi and his fellow Efulefu governors as well as Ohaneze will be resisted by the people of Old Eastern region.

“We, therefore, advise every Biafran father and mother to caution their children against joining Umahi’s vigilante group as such an outfit is already the enemy of the people. Their agenda is sinister and anti-Biafra.

“Remember that the real masterminds of the plot – the Fulani cabal running the failed contraption called Nigeria – having been emboldened by their success in installing one of their stooges as Ohaneze President, are now set to control Biafraland but ESN and IPOB have remained their only nightmare.

“No wonder Fulani can buy Efulefu Eastern leaders so cheaply. They know that the likes of Umahi are blinded by inordinate political ambitions. But to their disappointment, our people are now alive to their responsibilities and won’t allow Miyetti Allah to control the security architecture of the East as they are now attempting to take over Amotekun in the West.

“We are happy to aver that the grand conspiracy by our oppressors to take over the South with the help of compromised leaders is dead on arrival! We declare without equivocation, that any other group parading as South East and South-South Security outfit will not be allowed to operate on Biafra soil.

“Our people have already launched their own defense line – ESN – as our self-acclaimed leaders were nowhere to be found when it counted most. Anyone who enlists in any treacherous security outfit sponsored by Fulani stooges in our land to desteblize our territory will regret such a decision.

“IPOB sounded the warning long ago that Miyetti Allah was going to foist George Obizor as President General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo but many didn’t believe us. Today has that not happened? Now they have moved to form a security outfit for us because our governors and political leaders are blinded by their greed and selfish political ambitions but the move is dead on arrival!

“Remember that the same Miyetti Allah demanded to join Amotekun vigilantee but Yoruba people, aware of their evil motive, bluntly turned down their request. It’s very shameful that instead of supporting the people to strengthen ESN, southeast Governors led by governor Dave Umahi are hobnobbing with Miyetti Allah to compromise the security of the East. It’s only a fool that will hire his enemy to midwife the birth of his only son.
