AGAIN, IPOB Blasts South East Govs, Restate Readiness To Restore Biafra

Following the recent statement, disowning and condemning the Indigenous People of Biafra IPOB, and its Eastern Security Network ESN, by the five South East governors, the leadership of the IPOB led by Mazi Nnamdi Kanu has responded to the purported statement of the governors, describing them as puppets in the hands of the Fulani caliphate at the Northern Nigeria, and infinitesimal to speak for the millions of Biafrans.

The IPOB leadership made this known through a press release signed by the group’s Media and Publicity Secretary, Comrade Emma Powerful.

The IPOB further stressed that they are not surprised over the purported statement by the five governours of the region, because the governors had earlier proscribed the IPOB which enabled the federal government to tag them, terrorists, respectively.

It will be recalled that the five governors of the southeast under the chairmanship of the governor of Ebonyi State Dave Umahi called the leadership of the Indigenous People of Biafra IPOB, for peaceful negotiation, which the group turned down.

De Erudite Media Team gathered that consequent upon the recent developments resulting in tensions in the region, the five governors unveiled seemingly a virtual security network referred to as Ebebuagu which, was a countermove against the Eastern Security Network ESN, formed by the Indigenous People of Biafra IPOB.

In the light of the issues raised by the five governors, the leadership of the IPOB has described the actions of the southeast Leaders as desperation for power beyond 2023, which according to the group is a wild goose chase.

The IPOB statement titled: South East governors Too Small to Decide for Ndigbo on Biafra… further read in part:
” The attention of the Indigenous People of Biafra IPOB, ably led by our great leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, has been drawn to the purported disowning and condemnation of IPOB and the Eastern Security Network ESN, by the South East governors and few self-centred political leaders in the region. We are not, however, surprised because they were the same people to proscribe us before the Federal Government tagged us, terrorists”.

” The governors, Ohanaeze Ndigbo and the handful traitors masquerading as the Igbo political elite should wake up to the realities that they have since lost the confidence of the people. We understand the worry of these Efulefus: They are rattled by the unflinching support and loyalty of the masses to IPOB”.

” So, the South South East self-acclaimed leaders are quick to disown IPOB and Eastern Security Network ESN, yet they are calling us to accept the calls for peaceful negotiation? What a hypocrite!

“How can the South East governors be so desperate power beyond 2023 that they can sacrifice anything and anybody for personal gain? In case they don’t know, even the Northerners they are trying to impress understand the handwriting on the wall. They know that the governors are on their own. They can’t decide for over 70 million Biafrans home and abroad”.

“We want to unequivocally declare again, that the five South East governors and the few self-appointed Igbo elites, are too infinitesimal to speak for the millions of Biafrans who are tired of being held hostage in this contraption called Nigeria. They don’t even command the loyalty of their appointees let alone the egalitarian Igbo nation that never gave them the stollen mandate they parade”.

“Anybody listening to these traitors does so to his peril. There is no negotiation on the people’s resolve to restore Biafra where human dignity will be respected”.
