The Nigerian President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), has urged the country’s international allies to designate the Nnamdi Kanu-led Indigenous People of Biafra as a terrorist organisation.

Buhari made this call in an interview with Bloomberg on Tuesday.

Fielding questions on the country’s security problems, Buhari stated that his administration acquired fighter jets from the United States and engaged in intelligence sharing with the United Kingdom to prosecute the war against insurgency in the country.

He noted that previous administrations did not enjoy such privileges from the West.

Buhari said terrorists no longer hold any territory in Nigeria unlike what obtained in 2015 when “Boko Haram held territory the size of Belgium within the borders of Nigeria.”

The President claimed that “the leader of ISWAP (Islamic State’s West Africa Province) was eliminated by a Nigerian Airforce airstrike in March,” and other leaders of terrorist organisations in the country were deceased.

He, however, appealed to the Western allies to designate the IPOB as a terrorist organisation.

“In 2015, Boko Haram held territory the size of Belgium within the borders of Nigeria. Today they are close to extinct as a military force. The leader of ISWAP was eliminated by a Nigerian Airforce airstrike in March. The jets acquired from the US and intelligence shared by British were not provided to previous administrations and stand as testament to renewed trust re-built between Nigeria and our traditional western allies under my government.

“We urge those same international partners to take additional steps costing them nothing, by proscribing another group – IPOB – as a terrorist organisation,” Buhari said.

The Nigerian President added that the leadership of the IPOB “enjoys safe haven in the West, broadcasting hate speech into Nigeria from London, spending millions lobbying members of the US Congress, and freely using international financial networks to arm agitators on the ground.”

This man no need talk much abeg..

Do you need the approval of the west to deal with terrorists in the language they understand?

Although the whole world now know IPOB to be a confused terrorist organisation..Today, they cut people's throats and slice people's vaginas all in the name of "fleedom"... Tomorrow, they want Peter Obi to preside over the affairs of the "Zoo" they want to break away from

Cypress042:
I have it when people choose to misbehave in life, just sharap

Maxymilliano:
Ipob must have been a torn in Buhari's flesh to have reached out to International allies for support, not even the deadly Iswap or Boko Haram bandits could elicit such lamentations from the president

We now know why the clamour for Biafra increased by 1000% since Buhari became president.

Rastaramsey:



We all know IPOB aren't behind those killings....
They were orchestrated by some niggarrs to spoil their names.....

GOATandYAMtheory:
Yes..by the fulanis

And the Igbos love fulanis so much that they celebrate whenever security agents are killed

Where is your brain?

Rastaramsey:


Well, I should be the one asking you where you kept your brain

I didn't imply that fulanis are the ones behind the killings.
IPOB is a peaceful organization and there have been hijacked by some miscreants....

It's something similar to what went down in the end Sars protest where peaceful protesters were hijacked by touts and shit....

IPOB no dey kill people like this....

This is a political stuff created to paint IPOB bad....

Know this and know peace...

Bye

Cypress042:
Is obvious those people in the picture are hungry and needed money to buy food. Stop wasting your time

Tradernaija1:
There must be something IPOB is preventing Buhari and his APC band of demons from doing.

There is definitely something evil they are planning.
