Urhobo denounces inclusion in map of Biafra by MichaelSokoto(m): 3:23am On Nov 14, 2015
THE Urhobo nation yesterday denounced its membership in the proposed map of Biafra by the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB.

Making the position known yesterday in a statement, National Publicity Secretary of the Urhobo Progress Union, UPU, Alhaji Mumakai-Unagha, warned that Urhobo and its territories should be counted out from any IPOB plan.
“IPOB have their rights of agitation for freedom of self determination as enshrined in the united nation declaration stressing that other ethnic groups should not be dragged along to avoid the mistake that led to the civil war.
“The magnanimity of Urhobos in allowing Igbos celebrate the Igbo Cultural Day should not be taken for granted as we urge IPOB to delist Urhobo from its proposed map.”

SS voices against Biafra

When we told them that SS doesn't support biafra, they called us liars. They did everything possible to lure the region into the biafra agitation by shouting down any voice from the region against it and claiming such a person can't speak for the region cos he's not their leader. Now the notable leaders of the region are beginning to speak up and telling the Igbos to stop transporting people from SE to protest in SS thereby making it look like it's the SS indigenes that are in agitation for Biafra.



James ibori

The former Governor of Delta State, Chief
James Onanefe Ibori has called on those using
his picture during Biafra protest to cease from
using it and that he is a strong believer of
united Nigeria where the rights of every citizen
is held sacrosanct.
He also stated that the peace that the country
enjoyed for forty five years after the civil war
should not be broken by residues being dug up
by some people to further divide the nation
and betray efforts at national reconciliation
and development. This he said must not be
allowed.

Gov Wike

Wike Bans protesters in Rivers state

In a state broadcast, Mr. Wike banned all
forms of street protests, demonstrations,
rallies or unlawful gatherings associated
with the agitations for the secession of any
group from the Federal Republic of
Nigeria.
“Majority of these individuals have come
from neighbouring states
and in the course
of these protests, disrupted social and
economic activities, damaged properties,
assaulted and inflicted injuries on other
citizens going about their lawful
endeavours.

River Elders and Leaders Council

He said Rivers Elders noted those with Biafra
“sentiments have chosen to transport trailer
and bus loads of demonstrators from
neighbouring states into Port Harcourt.
To say
the least, this amounts to the display of bad
political fate across our neighbouring borders.
Rivers Elders pointed out “The action so far
taken by the Biafra protesters in Port Harcourt
is highly provocative to all genuine sons and
daughters of Rivers state who have so far
restrained themselves from confronting the
demonstrators in Port Harcourt.”

Senator Godswill Akpabio

The Rivers Commissioner of Police, Musa Kimo,
also noted that his command would not allow
lawlessness or breakdown of law and order.
Senate minority leader Senator Godswill
Akpabio also condemned the Biafran agitators.
Speaking at the venue of the Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP) conference in Abuja,
Akpabio, a former Akwa Ibom State governor,
called on the Federal Government and the
states where the militias are protesting to stop
the spread of the agitation.
“The Biafra agitators must be told that those
who witnessed the Nigerian civil war will never
wish to experience another war in their entire
lifetime.
“If you don’t like the government of the day,
you must wait for another election to vote them
out”, Akpabio said.

How ironic that they are quick to label Nigeria a contraption but their intended paradise is fraught with fraud.

These people (the 10% Igbos, I mean, 90% of Igbos are good people) are the bastion of chicanery!

Dreamers in broad day light! They rob even themselves...of the truth!

Ole!

I just dey laugh...

They have the right to disassociate themselves from any agitation they do not believe in.

I know of many Urhobo youths that are active members of IPOB in Asaba.

The Asaba regional secretary-general is from Urhobo.

it is their choice, but if their elders or leaders want out, good and fine.
