THE Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has explained that its attack against former deputy senate president Ike Ekweremadu was because he was part of those who ‘instigated’ Operation Python Dance.

The lawmaker, representing Enugu West senatorial district, was on Saturday assaulted at the Second Annual Cultural Festival and Convention organised by Ndi-Igbo Germany in Nürnberg. He had been invited as a keynote speaker. Released footage of the incident shows Ekweremadu, dressed in the traditional Isiagu attire, hurriedly leaving the venue in a vehicle as others threw objects at him.

Radio Biafra, operated by IPOB leader Nnamdi Kanu, had tweeted that he was “seriously questioned and accused of conspiring with Nigeria government in proscribing and killings of hundreds of unarmed IPOB family members”.

In a press statement released on Sunday by IPOB spokesperson Emma Powerful, the group further explained that the assault was in compliance with a long-standing instruction by the IPOB leader to “hound all instigators of Operation Python Dance”.
