Ban On Foreign Trip: Ihedioha Excluded, IPOB Pencils Down 4 Governors For Attack by sharpden: 7:04am On Aug 19, 2019

By Daniel Ayinime - August 19, 2019

The Indigenous People Of Biafra (IPOB) has warned four state governors from the South-East region not to embark on foreign trips if they don’t want to be attacked by members of the proscribed group.

The warning was issued by the leader of the secessionist group, Nnamdi Kanu, while broadcasting to the world on Sunday through Radio Biafra.

Members of secessionist group calling for an independent state of Biafra Republic, on Saturday, assaulted a former deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu, when he visited Germany for a function.

Mr Enugu-born federal lawmaker had no option than to run away for his dear life when members of IPOB stormed the gathering and attacked him.

Mr Kanu while issuing the warning said five members of the group has been selected in each country of the world to spearhead the attack on leaders of the South-East seen in any foreign land.

He also placed one million naira as bounty for anyone with any useful travel itinerary that will aid the tracking down of the leaders.

Although, there are five state governors from the geo-political zone, the group excluded one state governor from its list of those penciled down for attack elsewhere aside Nigeria.

The four others in the list includes: Dave Umahi (Ebonyi), Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi (Enugu), Okezie Ikpeazu (Abia) and Willie Obiano (Anambra).

Excluded in the list is Emeka Ihedioha, the state governor of Imo State, which is one of the states in the Igbo predominantly area.

Meanwhile, TODAY POLITICS gathered that Mr Ihedioha, who succeeded Rochas Okorocha who is now a federal lawmaker, was probably excluded because he was not in power when his counterparts from the region gave their support for the proscription of IPOB two years ago.

Meanwhile, Mr Umahi who heads the South East Governors Forum has dismissed the warning of the secessionist group, describing it as an empty threat.

“They have no spread and power to do so, because they cannot see any governor to attack,” the Ebonyi governor said in a press statement signed by his Chief Press Secretary, Emmanuel Uzor.

I personally like this new twist, but ll prefer this guyz be dealt with here at home.
All these promise and fail politicians must be taught a bitter lesson.
No matter how much they stole or any other wrong they commit, the law cannot cash up with them .
The law is for the commoner.

Is this Nnamdi Kanu's version of revolution? Knowing that should such be tried from home he would be given the Sowore treatment.

He who the gods wants to kill, they make him mad. Nnamdi Kanu has lost it, I expected him to be diplomatic in handling this issue, I guess I was wrong. Nnamdi please stay far away from Nigeria because the next time you set your foot in Nigeria, you will be given a dose of your own medicine.

So because these miscreant illegal immigrants fought Ekweremadu, they now think they can decide who travels and who does not.

You can't move, sshit, or piss in Biafra unless 'supleme leader' Kanu gives you the greenlight. Try it and you will be 'fixed' by Biafra Gestapo.

I swear, these guys are so deluded.
Imagine displaying such a flagrant disregard to societal norms and a chilling lack of commonsense. Jumping up and down like children, without any direction and purpose.
Is this how the so called Biafra will be governed Clueless people.

Igbos are lucky to be in Nigeria.
I promise you, grant them independence, and South Sudan would be paradise compared to Biafra.
Everyone else is their problem, except themselves of course.

You ban governors because they do not share in your ideology? Ludicrously laughable. grin grin

I still believe that Nnamdi Kanu would have formed a party at the peak of the IPOB struggles then and today his party would have won atleast 11 Governors in the South East and South South and all the National and state legislators in those 2 regions. That would have been a great leap forward. I know for sure that it would have gained national support than the method he adopted. My personal opinion sha. Noone should quote me please.

I can't stop laughing. Ipob leader has been very quiet since looking for any means to get money and it seems the opportunity just came. They took Ekweremadu by surprise and at the end they felt it was successful and now the leader has come out again with something to talk about. Under only two days his voice has come back to life because they attacked Ekweremadu. To show how unreasonable and foolish he is, why make noise, pointing out your targets when you know it will cost nothing for them to now have well planned security on any of their trips. Paying for adequate security in a country you are visiting is not an issue for government and if you as an Ipob dare try to cause any security breach that is a different case now on its own because you will have to assault their own security personnel and that is an offence on its own for those living on that soul and they know that.

The injured Agama is throwing stones from a distance... He is scared..
I don't really understand the kind of leaders this guys choose..the first lead you to battle and ran away, leaving most of you dead and homeless, yet you honor him
The second, after making mouths n threatened ran away and starts "ruling" from away
Look for good leaders and learn how to fight your battles with sense..
None of your so called leaders is one-tenth as credible as Mandela
