naijapips02:
who is Mmaduabuchi Anyagulu. and what is his position in the grand scheme of things?
He is an information officer in IPOB, remember that Nnamdi kanu is the leader of IPOB and not MASSOB. So IPOB should be trusted on concerning Nnamdi kanu.

Moreover IPOB believe in non violent agitation for biafra while MASSOB believe in violence, so I think MASSOB made the press release just to incite violence and panic in the people of SE & SS.
PoliticsMessage From IPOB To Biafrans And The World At Large. by egbusi1(op): 3:01pm On Nov 22, 2015
Nnamdi Okwu Kanu is not dead:

Those paid to tarnish the image of Biafra and Biafrans through their heinous media deceit and lies will never succeed. Biafrans are mentally strong and resolute.

The news making rounds on social media that the Leader and commander of Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Okwu Kanu is dead, is false and baseless. The Nigerian government is trying to erupt an unpresidented emotional explosion of Biafrans home and abroad there by rendering our peaceful march useless and to make Biafrans appear to be the opposite of what we expressly preach.

Enemies of Biafra are trying to use their media coverage and propaganda to spur Biafrans into unwarranted and undue violence over the rumoured murder of Nnamdi Okwu Kanu (GCBA) by the DSS and Nigerian Government. They are seeking for another reason not to present him at the court tomorrow being Monday the 23rd day of November, 2015.

Those who are unable to be present at the court hearing should prepare for a protest. This present march to Biafra redemption cannot be stopped half way. It is the responsibility of this generation to redeem Biafra and Biafrans. Those Biafrans who are opposed to the redemption of Biafra and therefore term her 'Dead' is in for a grand awakening. As have been prophesied by the Oracle of Biafrans, Biafra will be the last miracle on earth. With the coming of Biafra, 'it is finished'.

Oha na Eze ndi Igbo cannot disown what they do not own. IPOB was never and can never be a possession of poorly bred set of individuals and self acclaimed igbo leaders of thought. Biafrans are not Igbos, rather igbos should aspire to be Biafrans, not the other way round. He who is at peace with Chukwu Okike Abiama does not fear at the ranting of mere mortals.

The coming of Biafra is unavoidable and unstoppable. Like the dawn of morn, Her advance is inevitable. When Biafra finally arrives, m ga asi unu, unu nekwa anya rasia m.

I am pro Nigeria but I think that IPOB is very organized and their structure is strong for them to still continue their broadcast and continued lobbying world leaders even after kanu 'so arrest.

vicenzo:
How can the authenticity of this letter be proved? Any major news outlet carried this news?
Cos I can concoct one in favour of Biafra, and post it here.

OP, where is your source?
Sorry my friend i didn't concoct the letter, i saved it from IPOB Facebook page and i know they don't lie about biafra diplomatic issues.


I think the British rejection is a setback to IPOB, but it is not a major setback as IPOB can still seek the help of other strong countries like Germany, Russia, Israel, USA, France, Brazil, China, Japan, etc.

This response actually convinced me that IPOB are not ordinary Street touts as some Nigeria States men would have us believe.

I think the Nigeria government should take IPOB more seriously and solve the agitation once and for all.


IPOB are not streets touts, they are lobbying world leaders.

PoliticsMr Bode Abodunrin Bombshell On Igbo Traders. by egbusi1(op): 4:01pm On Oct 23, 2015
IGBO TRADERS CONTRIBUTE 80% OF THE 36
STATES IGR - MR. BODE ABODUNRIN.
Paffcomm Trade and Commerce Analyst Mr,
Bode Abodunrin said yesterday that the
Nigeria State govt have two main sources of
income. He said, the federal govt budget
allocation and Igbo traders are the main
source of income sustaining all states of the
federation. The Analyst said that apart from
the federal allocation the Igbo traders
contribute about 80 percent of all states of
the federation IGR.He said that with the fall
in oil price that states governors have
created more taxes to increase their
revenue to sustain the state expenditures.
Mr. Bode warned that that the increment on
taxes by states on the Igbo traders is
destroying and killing their businesses. He
said that states are creating a lot of burden
to the Igbo traders instead of encouraging
them.
Mr, Bode Abodunrin also warned that over
taxing the Igbo traders may result to their
relocation to other places which will bring
untold hardship to the state they left.
According to him, he said no state can
replace Igbo traders if they leave the state.
He said trading is not what you just wake
up in the morning and join. He said the Igbo
traders are very skilled in the art of doing
business because they undergo business
training in a particular area of business
which takes them many years to build the
skill, structure, Finance, etc. before opening
their own business. Therefore, it is not a
thing a state govt can replace over night. Mr,
Bode Abodunrin also said that Igbo traders
has not only sustained the state's economy,
but they are also number one in Nigeria for
infrastructural development of the 36
states of the federation in terms of private
development, e.g. building of private and
commercial houses, circulation of money in
the state, employment, construction of
markets, etc.
Mr, Bode Abodunrin said that it is
encouraging that northern states are
inviting the Igbo traders to come to their
state and open up businesses. Some of them
are even promising adequate security for
the Igbo traders. Mr, Bode Abodunrin
particularly warned Lagos state govt to
reduce their incessant taxation of the Igbo
traders and remove the area boys that go to
the Igbo traders to extort money from them
in the name taxes and royalty on behalf of
the state and local govt. Mr, Bode Abodunrin
said no state in Nigeria can sustain their
expenditure without Igbo traders IGR
impute and advised the states to encourage
the traders instead of fighting them. He also
cautioned the states indigene to stop
antagonizing the Igbo traders and trying to
pick a fight with them to loot and destroy
their wares because if they go definitely,
their business will suffer, but a little.
However, the state will suffer, the more
because IGR that helps to sustain the
economy will reduce while the
infrastructural development will also be
affected. He also advised the Igbo traders to
be law-abiding.
