Why We Are Distancing Ourselves From IPOB – Ambazonia Interim Govt by Rehimusals: 7:49pm On Oct 26, 2021
The leadership of the Ambazonia Interim Government, a separatist group in Cameroon, has insisted that its agitations for a separate country has no similarities with that of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).

Samuel Sako, the leader of the group, said during a virtual press conference Sunday that they would not want to jeopardise their relationship with the Nigerian government because thousands of Southern Cameroonian refugees have benefitted from the country’s benevolence.

“It is political suicide and a very wrong calculation for us to take any position that jeopardises the lives of 120,000 of our people who are enjoying the hospitality of Nigeria right now under the eyes of the government and security forces,” said Mr Sako.

The IPOB, led by Nnamdi Kanu, who is facing charges of treasonable felony and terrorism before a Nigerian court, is a group in the country’s southeast agitating for a secession.

In August, Mr Sako had stated that the activists agitating for an independent Ambazonia have no alliance with IPOB, drawing harsh criticism from the Ambazonia Governing Council, another separatist group led by Ayaba Cho Lucas.

At Sunday’s press meeting, Mr Sako said the response from Mr Lucas does not carry any weight because he only represents a handful of Ambazonians.

“The weight of any statement depends on who made the statement, not the content of the words,” he said.

“So if I say that Ambazonia doesn’t have an alliance with IPOB, the weight of that statement depends on who I represent when I said so. This is the interim government, representing more than 90 per cent of the people of the Southern Cameroons.

“The opposition in any nation can say anything but what matters is what the government says. And we say we don’t have an alliance and we don’t intend to have one because our fights are not the same. We don’t want to be misunderstood.”

cheesy grin grin people can easily see through their propaganda!

They deliberately uses their BMCs on social media, to link IPOB with anyone, group, country

Then suddenly use the same group to destroy their image/relationship grin

All to make Igbos hopeless, just as they are doing with their military posing as Biafra military grin

Them go tire!

Nigerian media fooling ignorant Nigerians like they normally do in Nigeria.

Fun Fact, Most Nigerians don't know that there is an active Boko Haram camp/territory in Niger state (few kilometres from Abuja).
The camp/territory has been active since 10 months ago
