The Indigenous People of Biafra has urged Igbos outside the South-East region to return home and be counted during the 2023 census.

The group said it was imperative for the Igbo to be counted during this year’s census in order to ascertain their actual population size, adding the opportunity will equally prove to the world that they are not really, “a dot” in a circle.

IPOB’s Director of Media and Publicity, Emma Powerful, disclosed this in a statement on Wednesday.

Earlier, The PUNCH reports that the National Population Commission said it had put out measures to guard against all forms of malpractices ahead of the forthcoming population and housing census.

The commission also stressed that citizens living away from their states of origin do not need to travel to home for the purpose of the exercise.

It said people would be enumerated at their places of residence.

Powerful disclosed that the census would serve as a chance for the Igbo to ascertain the population and the size of amenities it needed in their territory.

“The mass return of our people during this forthcoming population census will help us quantify the population of Biafrans in Nigeria. Therefore, we must seize the opportunity the Nigeria Government is offering to our benefit. They have always told the world that we are a dot with an insignificant population. Now is the time to let the world know the population of Biafrans in Nigeria as the Biafra agitation is gathering international attention and speed. Biafra is coming, and no one can stop it. IPOB is gradually dismantling all obstacles to our freedom, and this population census will provide another opportunity to collect more evidence to that effect.

“Should there be any reason why you can’t travel to Biafra land to be counted, make sure you and your family members are not counted outside Biafra land. We must prove them wrong once and for all.”

He added that it would engage transport owners to be part of this project so that those willing to travel to the East to be counted could do so.

“We are calling on all well-meaning Igbo business men and women, entrepreneurs, senators, ministers, commissioners, House of Assembly members from the Eastern states to contribute in one way or the other to ensure that our people come back home during this population census exercise.”

Una want dey claim say una plenty for Una area so that more amenities will be shipped there but after censor una go return to no man's land to choke the little amenities.

Hope say CRV go follow go home too?

During Caimpaign, Kenayo told them to stay wherever they are and use their population in those states to vote for Obi and now a new order is being given to go back home for census. If the agenda is not yet clear to you. I don't know when it will be anymore.
The " go back home" they hate to hear is what ipob is telling them to do.

If the go back home, most of them will be suyanized by ipob idiots

wahahlawahala:
But how den wan come home wen una dey kill Dem?😒 .

Those of at home, have they killed us all?
Face your front and leave igbo matters for ndigbo

greatiyk4u:


The exclusion of
State and LG of origin
Tribe
Religion in census detail is evil motive to add up the number of igbos outside igbo land to the number of their state of residence tribes.

Igbos aren’t the only tribe living outside their region. I’m not from the SW but I live in Lagos.
The idea of census is to help have an idea of population trend to help govt plan for people.
How can you be living all your life in Lagos and when it’s time for census you take that count to your village?
Why are you Igbos like this?
Now you are already saying that the census is targeted at the Igbos
Unfortunately, this your line of reasoning is exactly how the great majority of Ibos are thinking
Too bad

Abeg if they return, make dem no come back again forever

Yes daddy

wahahlawahala:
But how den wan come home wen una dey kill Dem?😒 .

Now you care about them

E no pass the one Una people kill during election

Better.

But only if they can stay back permanently in their region this time. Their development is no longer needed, we are not lazy

Oga abeg STFU!!!! Where were you when Yoruba thugs were attacking non-yorubas in Lagos and asking them to go back home to vote? I will remain in Lagos during the census but nobody will count me and add to Lagos population.God forbid

But you will need oil money outside the SW to feed poor Yoruba states like Ekiti and Osun

How will Igbo retuning back permanently to their region going to stop oil money?

How would that stop the distribution of Oyel money across the states in Nigeria?

Are you the one sending the killers to Igbo land?

Oooh, you now don't want Igbo to perish again? You are no more interested in evil happening to them again?
Is it your death or killing?

No Igbo man will be counted outside Igbo land

Chai, this conversation is just too low for my mental capability.

Enjoy with your thoughts guy

Is it by force to be counted? Igbos and other non-yorubas in Lagos will not be counted
