The minister of transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, has denied being beaten by the Members of the Indigenous People Of Biafra, IPOB, yesterday in Spain.

Igbere TV had reported that IPOB members attacked the Minister in Madrid, Spain, on Friday
while attending a UN conference on climate change.



Igbere TV recalls that Emma Powerful, IPOB spokesman, said the attack was based on an order from Nnamdi Kanu, its leader.

The spokesman said IPOB members “beat the minister”, adding that similar thing will be done to those “who brought hardship to the people”.

But in a statement made available to Igbere TV Saturday, Amaechi said the IPOB spokesman lied, revealing that he resisted and defeated his attackers.

“We read with utter disgust and disdain the sickening propagandist lies credited to one Emma Powerful, who claims to be the Spokesman of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), that IPOB members in Madrid, Spain “beat” (physically assaulted) the Minister of Transportation Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi. That is not true,” the statement read.

“We must clarify that in the incident of the attack yesterday on the Minister in Madrid, where Amaechi was part of the official Nigerian government delegation to the United Nations (UN) climate change conference (COP25), IPOB members did not “beat”, physically assault or cause any bodily harm to the honourable Minister.

“As they charged towards and at the minister during the attack, it was apparent that their plan was to “beat” (quoting Emma Powerful) him, hurt him, cause bodily harm or even do worse! But their violent evil plot failed woefully due to the dexterity of Amaechi to resist them, protect and defend himself, and the prompt intervention of the Spanish police who repelled the motley crowd of misguided attackers. Even the video circulated online by the attackers confirmed this much. Everyone could clearly hear one of them shouting, ‘we didn’t get him…’ expressing his frustrations of their inability to get and “beat” the Minister.”

Amaechi commended the Spanish police in Madrid for their prompt intervention in rescuing him from the attackers.

He expressed gratitude to those who showed him support since the incident occurred.

“We must commend the Spanish police in Madrid for their timely intervention to protect Amaechi and their investigation of the attack and attempt on the life of the honourable minister in Spanish territory,” he said.

“The honourable minister of Transportation is immensely grateful to all for the outpour of love, support and prayers. He acknowledges God’s hand in the foiling of the attack and reassures all and sundry that he’s well, unhurt and okay; and will continue to dedicate himself in service to God, Nigeria and humanity.”
