A group, G23 Foundation, seeking the reelection of President Muhammadu Buhari in next year’s general elections has exonerated the president over the Indigenous People of Biafra’s proscription.

Speaking at a press conference in Awka, the Anambra State capital, the leader of the group, Mr Johnbosco Onunkwo, said what Buhari did in the circumstance was to endorse a request by the South-East governors to proscribe the group.

He said no sane and responsive leader could ignore a security report of that magnitude in the circumstance.

The Governors of the South-East, under the umbrella of South-East Governors’ Forum, had in September last year proscribed IPOB.

Justifying their action, the governors said the IPOB leader, Nnamdi Kanu, had lost control of the group.

They added that IPOB had lost focus and was causing tension.

They said, “The activities of IPOB in the South-East have denied us of foreign investments and it is very important that our people should understand that and should know that.

“There are things you do that you have control over and so you work on things you have control over and leave the rest that you don’t have control over.

“Nobody wants to come to a place that is under tension that’s why we want to keep pressing for peace.


The governors’ action was followed about a week later by the Federal Government’s proscription of the secessionist group through the court.

The pro-Buhari group at the press conference said nobody should blame the president for the action.

He said,” Have you seen any of the South-East governors speak against the proscription? They were the people that told Buhari to proscribe IPOB as chief security officers of their states, and no sane and responsive president would reject to act on such a report. So blame your governors and not Buhari on that issue.

“Federal Government acted in consonance with the stance and position of the Southeast governors who initiated the process of proscription of the IPOB as the chief security officers of their respective states.

The group enjoined the Igbo to stop being self-effacing on national issues but to stand up and be counted.

The group said its endorsement of Buhari for reelection was to enable him to consolidate on the achievements he had recorded within four years.

Saying that Buhari had salvaged Nigeria from the shackles of corruption which had crippled its growth, the group noted that Buhari took over the leadership of the country when it was on the verge of collapse, economically.

Okay we have heard.. next pls!!!!!

Na me even be FTC sef.... Abeg where my gift ?

Faceless group led Miyetti allah supporters. Do these people think everyone will fall for their lies?

Modified:
It is public knowlegde that Arewa youths led by Yerima were the chief lobbyist for proscription of IPOB. A fact documented and well established after Arewa youths anger at IPOB's sucessful SIT AT HOME ORDER THAT WAS OBSERVED THROUGHOUT SOUTH EAST AND PARTS OF SOUTH SOUTH around June-July 2017.

Have this faceless pathological liars forgotten about Arewa declaration that Igbos should leave and vacate the north by october 2017? What led to this declaration? Was it not because of IPOB's raising influence in South East especally after the sucessful sit at home order, which angered Arewa youths for no reason? I will look for the link where Miyetti allah supporters (Northern Youths) said they will make sure that IPOB was declared a terrorist organization. Barely two months after Arewa youths pledge, IPOB was proscribed by buhari's terrorist govt in September 2017 via Nigerian army.

Bloody faceless liars.

it have been long i hear from reipob and tripob.

Lies form pit of hell.
The proscription came from Fed govt led by muhammed buhari.
SE governors were playing "seek and hide" game on the issue concerning Ipob because they didn't want to do or say something that Will offend Buhari whom they all see as a dictator that might sabotage their second term bid. At the same time, SE governors avoided in engaging or saying things that would offend the people that voted them in. This is why after 3 days of proscription of IPOB,Okezie Ikeazu spoke on behalf of Igbo governors and said they never supported the proscription. Probably because of bashing and lampooning of Nig govt by Int communities.

SE governors were between the devil and red sea.
Those that were clamoring for IPOB to be declared terrorist organization were arewa youths. The news is all over the media. They also did protest about it.

This faceless group should just shut up and keep campaigning for a terrorist they kept in Abuja, rather than looking for people they will pitch against each other

i remember when south east governors met and shortly after,ipob was proscribed....

ipob dont like to remember that fact.....na them started the wahala.....

CyynthiaKiss:
South East Governors have denied proscribing IPOB. Its was the hand work of the Fed govt, not SE governors.

This group should shut up !

go and read past posts on nairaland and you will find out....fg is not scare of ipob....but its the presidents responsibilty to react to any danger confronting nigeria....ipob realy lost control....

cownunu thought only shouting biafra will make many criminal igbos all of a sudden responsible.....

wasnt it the brother of cownunu that went on the street to go remove street blockade that their members set up....??

a police station was attacked and they were bragging about it on radio biafra....many of us still remember this things....

denying brings nothing....

its good we voted out jonathan....jonathan would have even tried to appease them with money and made things much worser.....

Did anybody see Buhari proscribe the armed killer Herdsman who have long been designated a terrorist group by several international groups?

But the it is unarmed IPOB that killed nobody that should be proscribed? The good thing about the proscription of IPOB is that it showed the world how biased and sectional Buhari is in relation to the killer Herdsmen

The proscription of IPOB has already been condemned by the USA, the EU and Wole Soyinka.


Only a very stupid Igbo man will vote for Buhari

invest in your own area and stop blaiming others....was it the fg that built lagos all alone....??

it was mostly private investors because they await profit back....
