IPOB dissociates from Biafra Government in Exile

The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), yesterday, dissociated from a group it referred to as “Biafra Government in Exile.”

IPOB Spokesman, Emma Powerful, in a statement, said its attention has been drawn to “online inauguration of autopilot group called Biafra Government in Exile and their Liberation Army.”

He stated that these people are double agents sponsored by Nigerian government to ridicule IPOB, which has failed on arrival. He stated that though IPOB has consistently dissociated from the autopilot groups, “these agent provocateurs keep associating their criminal activities and actions to IPOB, Eastern Security Network (ESN) and Nnamdi Kanu, because they were sent to distract and deter our movement. But we have defeated them and will always defeat them, as well as their sponsors.”

Stressing that IPOB has gone pass the stage of blackmail in whatever disguise, and that though Nigerian government has used every means to blackmail and demonise IPOB globally, including murdering innocent citizens and their own soldiers in Biafra land, Powerful said the separatist group has surmounted all their evil strategies.

Powerful said: “We are alerting the international community, the Nigerian media and the general public to note that IPOB and Kanu are not part of these antics and games coming from Federal Government with the so-called Biafra Government in Exile and their Liberation Army.

“At no time in this struggle has Kanu or IPOB’s leadership declared armed struggle or formed a Biafra army. What IPOB formed and inaugurated was armed vigilantes called ESN
.”

According to Powerful, the ESN consists of IPOB members, who have volunteered to protect forests and farmlands from murderous Fulani herdsmen, who have been killing, maiming, raping our people and abducting farmers in their farms all over the South East.

He stressed: “Autopilot has no business with ESN, though they have been using ESN’s name to defraud people.

“Therefore, autopilot and its so-called Biafra Government in Exile with their Liberation Army are not part of IPOB or ESN, nor do they have any link or association with our leader Kanu.


“We are making this public statement so that United Nations (UN) and other interested groups will take note so as not to link IPOB with autopilot and their foolishness. IPOB is wiser than they think.

“IPOB is a peaceful and legally registered organisation in many countries of the world seeking independence from the Nigerian state.

“On the other hand, the so-called Biafra Government in Exile is a factional member of autopilot. None of them is an IPOB member.”

IPOB declares Mondays’ sit-at-home nullity, infamous

By Gordi Udeajah, Umuahia
12 April 2023 | 4:00 am


The usual sit-at-home directive by the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has been declared canceled and can’t continue, IPOB’s Spokesman, Emma Powerful, declared yesterday.

In a statement, Powerful said: IPOB has said it numerous times that Mondays’ sit-at-home is infamous and cannot be allowed to continue, and we are concerned that in some areas, especially rural areas, our people continue to observe the sit-at-home due to threats from criminal enforcers linking themselves to the IPOB movement.

“The now suspended sit-at-home was declared by IPOB leadership and was suspended by the leadership in collaboration with our leader after considering the adverse effects it has had on our people, and how enemies can possibly use it.

“Just as predicted by IPOB’s leadership, security agents, infiltrators and government agents hijacked it and used it to torment our people and to rubbish IPOB, especially in other countries.

“Mondays in the South East have become days for infiltrators and government security agencies to kill and destroy our land just because they want to blackmail IPOB. IPOB leadership is always ahead of our enemies and has canceled this tool before our enemies could start using it.

“We are telling all and sundry that sit-at-home has been canceled.

“Kanu has, once again, ordered, from Department of State Services (DSS) custody, that observance of sit-at-home should cease in every part of Biafra land.”

Powerful noted that the separatist group would, therefore, not be responsible for any outcome arising from non-existent sit-at-home, saying they will no longer talk about it.

He added that Ndigbo are not cowards and, therefore, should normalise their Mondays by going about their legitimate businesses like before.

He said that anyone seen enforcing sit-at-home should be treated as a criminal and enemy of the people.

Biafra this Biafra that. How I wish Nigeria can give these people their Biafra and restrict them to that just 5 landlocked states that's of the size of Oyo state. No need to claim other people's land to form your Biafra. No need to force anyone to join u.
This their gragra will end if we can allow them. I don't think there is any significant impact they have in this country except causing nuisance anywhere they find themselves, claiming they are doing business.

People that expend so much energy on the affairs of people they HATE. Why not give updates on issues relating to activities in the Boko Haram..Bandits..Fulani Herdsmen..ravaged North?

Why not source news concerning the daily events in the SW. Where skull mining and human rituals are becoming an epidemic?

Even with BIAFRA emerging as an independent Nation, you people from the SW, will still be fixated on their development.

You can concentrate all your energy on sourcing for BIAFRA news. Try and give us updates on Tinubus whereabout as well. grin

Let IGBO people and their events be, they don't need your patronage..haba!!!

The guys above shouting confusion are actually the one confused. How can a man try to enforse himself as a prime minister that was never approved by anyone. Ohanaeze ndi igbo is not backing him so who are these mafia organisation trying to deceive with a sponsored lunatic who is bent on destroying the southeast for his own benefit.
