The Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria (HURIWA) has advised the Nigerian military to review the labelling of IPOB as a terrorist organisation.

HURIWA on Saturday lamented that the military has “increasingly become anti-democratic and assuming legislative powers”, alleging that its hierarchy was working in conjunction with Arewa youths.

HURIWA said both section 4 of the Constitution of Nigeria and section 6 recognised the National Assembly as the body to exercise legislative powers of the federation and the judicial powers of the Federation.

It described the pronouncement on IPOB as a terrorist group as a charade and a plot to initiate violent crackdown on the members of this substantially unarmed and peaceful group.

The Rights group warned that the military institution as a creation of the law must not be permitted to grow wings and become an omnibus vehicle that would ride roughshod on the democratic and constitutional rights of associations and groups to operate as strictly non-violent and peaceful bodies.

HURIWA said by the Constitutional provision, only the Courts of competent jurisdictions or the legislative chambers of the Nigerian National Assembly under the relevant provisions of the Constitution, can make pronouncements on which groups can be categorised as terrorist organisations.

In a statement by the National Coordinator Comrade Emmanuel Onwubiko and the Media Affairs Director Miss ZainabYusuf, HURIWA said the attempt by Major General John Enenche of the Defence Headquarters to confer on his office the powers of judicial or legislative authorities by unilaterally declaring the Europe-registered group as a terrorist group is unconstitutional, illegal, arbitrary, null and void.

“We reject this coup plot against the constitutional rights of citizens to join associations freely and to assemble peacefully,” it read.

“The illegal pronouncement of the Defence Headquarters that IPOB is a terrorist organisation shows that the Defence authority is working in tandem with the AREWA YOUTH coalition which had recently canvassed the declaration of IPOB as a terrorist group.

“The military must be stopped from attempting to imprison a huge number of Igbo youth only because they are seeking to enjoy their rights to self determination which is authorised by all international laws.

“This Defence Headquarters will one day pronounce any town union as terrorist organisation the moment the group opposes the government of the day. This dictatorship must be uprooted immediately and comprehensively defeated.

“Has the DHQ complied with the appropriate procedure in declaring IPOB a terrorist organization? What is the legal and operational implication of this declaration? What is “acts of terrorism” in the circumstances of this Law?”, the statement quipped.

SOUTH EAST GOVERNORS SPONSORED MILITARY INVASION IN SOUTH EAST.

As we all know, today 15th September 2017 marks the beginning of the real Operation Python Dance in Abia state, a soldier who pleads anonymous have revealed that it was a request from the south east governors from the federal government which is a concrete plan from them to put fears in the life of IPOB agitators but little did they know that the Cabals in Buhari government have been looking for a loophole for them to penetrate the home of Nnamdi Kanu to Assassinate him because of the so many truth he have revealed to the world about them of which the latest was the unveiling of the man in Aso Rock as Aminu Jibrin from Sudan.

At first the governors wanted the operation to start from Anambra which is also a major hub where IPOB activities takes place and comprising that it's 18th November election is under threat but Willie Obiano declined it saying that the atmosphere in Anambra have been very intense sighting the Ozubulu terror attack and other horrible incidents that have been facing the state, after so many deliberations, Okezie Ikpeazu agreed to take the exercise to his own state (Abia) having been compelled to do so with reason that his state houses the agitation.

82 division Enugu was assigned to spearhead the exercise because it was in her jurisdiction to do so but the cabals thought it wise to bring inn soldiers from the north to mix with the other Hausa soldiers that are in 82 division so as to curb sympathy with little number of South South and South East soldiers to accompany them so as not to seem partial.

As alarm of the influx of heavy military hardware broke out, the tension was high already before our arrival, the South East and South South soldiers were left at the barracks to attend to some assignments given to them by the commanding officer of the python dance and Show of force.

The soldiers who have the real message for the purpose of the assignment were deployed to all streets of Aba and Umuahia respectively whereas others moved to capture the leader of IPOB but were surprised that the youths have no shred of fear in them even while they shot them with live bullets, so in other not to act foolishly, we retreated to prepare for the final show off but to the surprise of all of us, before night fall, the video of maltreatment against those coming from Aba to the house of the IPOB leader had surfaced and it threw a very big quarrel among us because there was no other tribe apart from Fulani soldiers that embarked to the assignment.

So the commander of the python dance resolved that we must leave our phones behind while going for the exercise sighting that someone among us may have been sympathetic to the infidels and that was why there could not be any other video evidence to show the world of the evil act that was committed against a peaceful people of the land.

As all these were going on, the governors were thrown in a big confusion as the thing they are seeing was not what they bargained for but it is already too late because in military, you don't take order from anyone except the person heading the exercise so all their efforts to stop us proved abortive because the demand of the Cabals have to be met despite whatever it may be and their demand was to KILL NNAMDI KANU.

Amidst rain of bullets in the building we entered the building and many were already dead but we proceeded to the house to capture those who were still alive including the father of the IPOB leader.

In fact there are many other things to say but the truth of everything is that your selfish governors opened the door and the Cabals have vowed to kill Nnamdi Kanu before giving peace a chance.

We know.

Did both Interior Minister and Attorney general Malami not come out to protect them against arrest?


This administration is behind the arewa youth. They have not hidden this fact by their actions and utterances.

Like everyone with common sense knows. A support for nigerian army against Kanu is a SUPPORT for fulani herdsmen and Arewa.

This goes to all useful idiotic southern pawns. When the fulanis kill your brothers in the farm and rape your mothers and daughter..Remember you empowered them.

sarrki will soon come here to attack HURIWA

i still dont know how some you always manage to call out sarrki,when its obvious the young man is sick in the head,to a large extend,he is jobless,more like an online pawn used by PMBs royalists,they give him peanuts to sustain a living.....for me,his comment is only good for comic relief,more like a national clown,jumping from one circus(topic) to the other.
Some people can be so shameless in this life,sold his conscience for a mere porridge,i still wonder how people like this sleep at night,

How exactly will any igbo man in clear conscience support co-existence in Nigeria after seeing all these videos? This is exactly what gives rise to armed struggle and militia groups. How do you preach unity and one-nigeria to an average igbo man with these overwhelming evidences?

Political correctness died these past few days. Shame on any human who supported the killing of unarmed civilians in an attempt to sound politically correct.

Igbos must stand up and sort out themselves. Every means should be explored and I stand today for the full emergence of Biafra..... Unfortunately I can't be on the fence anymore.
