IPOB Elders Disown Avengers, MASSOB by apogeez(m): 5:29am On Jun 30, 2016
The Supreme Council of Elders of
Indigenous People Of Biafra on
Wednesday disowned the Niger Delta
Avengers and the Movement for the
Actualisation of the Sovereign State of
Biafra.

“Preachers of violence might be infants or
non-existent during the 30-month
Nigerian Civil War,” the group said,
The Deputy Chairman of IPOB’s Supreme
Council, Dr. Dozie Ikedife, stated this at a
press conference in Nnewi, Anambra
State on Wednesday.

Ikedife was reacting based on the claims
by some IPOB and MASSOB members
that the groups were aligning with the
Niger Delta militants as well as other
militants in the country.

The IPOB chief said there was no such a
thing, adding that he witnessed the Civil
War and saw how millions of people,
especially from the South-East, were
slaughtered and properties destroyed.
He insisted that he would certainly not
support any war because any life lost
would not be replaced, but properties
could be replaced.

The ex-Ohanaeze President said, “The
IPOB group I belong to is governed by the
Supreme Council of Elders. There is a
faction led by Nnamdi Kanu that abuses
the elders, preaches violence and ethnic
hatred.

“We do not believe in that. The MASSOB
led by Ralph Uwazuruike from its
inception preaches non-violence based on
the philosophy of the late Indian leader,
Mahatma Ghandi.

“If the militants have been blowing up
pipelines, I don’t see how my group that
has been following legal and diplomatic
process will align with them. We have
quite a different philosophy and modus
operandi towards the issue of self-
determination.

“The two factions of the IPOB and the
two factions of MASSOB are all talking
about self-determination of the
indigenous people of Biafra. But their
approach is not the same.

“The aim may be one but the method
differs. We have not and cannot depart
from dialogue, legal and diplomatic
process and of course you know we are in
court with the Federal Government over
this issue of self-determination.”

On the prevailing economic hardship in
Nigeria, Ikedife said, “It is a worthy
sacrifice for the citizen to endure the hard
living conditions now and enjoin a better
future later.

He added, “I see the current hardship as
darkness before the break of the daylight.
“We have now discovered that the
economy was so badly managed before
now that it requires some efforts,
sacrifice and patience to get it right
again.”

What Dozie Ikedife won't say is that it was Nigeria that came to the South East to kill millions in the name of a redundant term known as "one Nigeria".


How in this modern era will someone be fighting to be "one" with another person?

Go to Nnewi and see the Plazas Ikedife built with corrupt proceeds of selling Igbos to FG.

He made so much money in the last administration and today is afraid of being tagged 'rebel' because Buhari and EFCC has his casefile. The reason why he is not yet being paraded around by EFCC is to use him to discredit IPOB/Biafra as an 'IPOB elder' who wants to stay in nigeria.

Any noise from him, EFCC will invade his 'yam barn'. He doesn't want that because he and many other 'Ohaneze elders and yoots' like Isiguzoro and co are rotten. They are the ones monetizing the Biafrans struggle and selling off the lives of Biafrans to save their corrupt heads.
These people are the reason why they say 'Igbo can sell their people for money' but thank God there is an Nnamdi Kanu.

My problem is that punch keeps misinforming their unsuspecting readers,this lagos-ibadan express based media house keeps decieving nigerians mostly SW readers. IPOB worldwide is lead by one nnamdi kanu,the deputy directors and other top excos are all in exile(UK), so for one misguided nnewi moneybag(not big bag oh) to say he is IPOB elder is laughable... IPOB elder? Jeez! What is even the meaning of that? I am a rivers man and i know the EZE in my community(PH) will laugh at this,we in rivers only know of nnamdi kanu

You don't expect Igbos to give an open support.

Underground support remains the best of which the Avengers understand and accept.

The truth remains that Kanu is solidly behind the Avengers.

yorubaman, the present struggle have seperated the wheat (Kanu) from the Chaffs (Ikedife and co-thieves).

If kanu had also taken bribes like Ikedife and Uwazurike, the Biafran struggle monitizers, you would have had the right to call it a 'scam' but unfortunately for you, even though you hate Kanu for not bulging to your dullardeen master's whims and caprices like Ikedife and Uwazurikes, you zombies and your masters respect him secretly, we both know this. grin grin

BTW, why are you so obsessed about 'Biafra'? Will your lineage go into extinction if you decide today to become an Oduduwan as a yorubaman? Why do you hate Oduduwa so much because of oil? grin grin
