President Muhammadu Buhari has described the Indigenous People Of Biafra (IPOB) as “a dot in a circle,” saying the group is isolated in its call for secession.

The president said this in an interview with Arise TV broadcast on Thursday.

Buhari said he has been assured by “the elderly people” and “the youths” from the south-south part of the country that region has no intention of seceding.

He said IPOB will not have “access to anywhere” even if they eventually secede from the country.

The president then reiterated his statement that IPOB members will treated in the “language that they understand”.

“I was encouraged by what I heard, nobody told me. Two statements from the south south: one by the elderly people, they said this time around there would be no (secession). And again the youth made the same statement; such encouragement,” Buhari said.

“So that IPOB is just like a dot in a circle. Even if they want to exit, they’ll have no access to anywhere. And the way they are spread all over the country, having businesses and properties. I don’t think IPOB knows what they are talking about.”

“In any case, we say we’ll talk to them in the language that they understand. We’ll organise the police and the military to pursue them.”

IPOB has been agitating for the secession of the south-east. They recently took up arms against the country, attacking security formations and public property.

This narrative repeatedly echoed by a couple of rampaging internet hirelings here shows that there is a correlation between Abuja, Tinubu and the BMC hoodlums trying desperately to rewrite eastern boundaries online... Buhari just opened their nyansh! So next time when you hear them say that igbo is landlocked, understand where they got their matching orders to insist on such a laughable construct! Telling really!! You will think you are interacting with "ordinary Nigerians" here, not knowing you are dealing with some urchins parroting base government lines for a paltry paycheck!

meaning that flatin0s are landlocked mofos.

Bubu is a nairalander

Good . That terrorist organisation must be destroyed. Both its members, sponsors and media backers must be dealt with.


It is funny how Igbos abroads are sponsoring the destruction of their hometown. Who has this IPOB/ESN terrorists activities affected most? The elites? No! It is the common people that are bearing the brunt.

The shamelessness of the media is another big issue, where the news outlets especially channels TV has turned themselves into terrorists media outlets where they encourage terrorists. what we have now in Nigeria is transactional journalism.

It is evident that the only agenda of Gen.Muhammadu Buhari as President of Nigeria is to conquer all other ethnic groups by fully Fulanize and Islamize the country. When it comes to stupidity, Buhari can be likened to an unhinged drunkard at the bar regaling patrons with his stupidity. For six years, we have been abused and at the same time amused by the deeply idiotic episodes of Buhari in Nigeria’s most stupid era.

Humans are fond of doing stupid things. Stupidity is more accepting in individual’s life. But we must rebuff & rebel stupidity in a national leadership. There are two sides of history- the right side and the stupid side. A president can choose to be on a right side or on a stupid side. There is a mad rush for some presidents to be on a stupid side.

Few examples of Buhari’s impossibly stupidity will suffice. How profoundly stupid can Buhari be when for six years he has been jetting out to Britain for medical treatment and didn’t deem it wise to use the power and resources of his office to build first class hospitals in all the 36 states.

With the prevailing state of anarchy in the country, Buhari doesn’t see it fit and right to address the nation even for once. On rare occasions when he addressed Nigerians, we had to plead and beg. Buhari is building railway to Niger while such has not been extended to the 36 states. He said he’ll lift 100 million Nigerians out of poverty in ten years. The same Buhari failed to fulfill his campaign promise of creating two million jobs every two years.

He said Nigeria’s unity is not negotiable.But he zealously pursue policies & programs that fragments and disunites Nigeria: nepotism, corruption, divisive politics, filled all federal civil service jobs and posts in federal agencies with his Fulani kinsmen.

He proscribed IPOB freedom fighters as a terrorist organization. On the other hand, he appoints terrorist Isa Pantami as minister and staunchly stands behind Pantami and his terrorist declarations.

Buhari desperately hunts for Chief Sunday Adeyemo Igboho Oosa who is fighting to save Yorubas from Fulani herdsmen terrorists. At the same time, he shields Miyetti Allah terrorists, the Gumis and other northern terrorist groups. I can go on, and on, and on.

Buhari’s regime has been one disaster after another. These fiascos can be ascribed directly to Buhari’s lack of intellectual horsepower. Buhari has given no indication he possesses mental capacity, wisdom, and leadership skills to be president. When the story of Buhari’s reign of terror is told many years from now, students and history enthusiasts will learn about Buhari’s terrorism, nepotism, lies, corruption, and self-enrichment.

War drums from Buhari and Fulani invaders are becoming louder and louder every day. Nigeria’s break up is certain. Separation is the only way out!

Buhari said Igbos dont have access at anywhere. Help ask him if it is Fulanis that have access to anywhere

They now recognize just 5 SE states as Igboland.
Wike have a reason he was shouting on national TV he isn't Igbo so that he will be heard loud and clear, he keep saying SS is not SE they are in Niger Delta.
No reasonable person want to align with someone who is heading into a fight he is certain to lose or end up in another surrender.
South South have once again align themselves with FG according to Buhari's statement below.
Without SS it is obvious that SE is landlocked.

Bubu just labelled all Igbo IPOB. Such a narrow-minded and divisive leader. May thunder locate him

Why is he calling EPOB and not IPOB anyway?
