IPOB Labels Supporters Of Ekpa’s Faction As Criminals by alphonsojaybaz(op): 11:50am On Nov 30, 2024
The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has distanced itself from the recent declaration of the “United States of Biafra” made at a convention in Lahti, Finland, organized by supporters of Simon Ekpa.

In a statement released on Saturday, IPOB spokesperson Emma Powerful rejected any association with the event, labeling those backing Ekpa as “criminals engaged in illegal activities that are detrimental to their homeland.” The proclamation was made at a convention led by Dr. Ngozi Orabueze, who introduced herself as the Chief of Staff of the “United States of Biafra” and the organizer of the “Biafra Declaration of the Restoration of the United States of Biafra Convention 2024.” Eyes Of Lagos reports,

Videos from the event, which circulated widely on social media, showed participants waving Biafran flags and chanting slogans. However, IPOB reiterated its disavowal of the declaration and emphasized that it does not recognize the actions of Ekpa’s faction.

Powerful stated, “IPOB has no involvement in any conference. Those supporting Ekpa are criminals involved in illegal activities to destroy our land. There is no such declaration of Biafra from our side. Any claim that IPOB is hosting a conference is false. When IPOB makes an important announcement, the whole world will know. Those making such claims are fake.”

In response to the event, Sunday Edeson, spokesperson for the Movement for the Actualization of the Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB), expressed that if IPOB successfully achieves Biafra’s independence, MASSOB would support and celebrate with them. He added that the British government would never back Biafran freedom.

Edeson remarked, “Everyone has the right to declare. They declared their freedom in Finland, but we are still under Nigerian leadership. We support them. Declaring independence in Finland doesn’t mean we’re free from the Nigerian government. We still use Nigerian currency, and security agencies are still from Nigeria. So, we’re still under Nigeria’s control.”

True.

And that's why Finish authority are allowing Ekpa free reign because Ekpa is not the since declared terrorist organisation known as IPOB .

Go to Finland and tell them you are the authentic IPOB terrorist group and see how fast they deport you in chains back to Nigeria.

You are right .

IPOB is separate from Ekpa's own.

IPOB is a globally proscribed terrorist organisation


If you step into Finland and flaunt your IPOB membership they will deport and extradite your ass in chains back to Nigeria.

Only Nigeria sees IPOB as a terrorist group, no other country sees them as such.

But no matter the agitation, be it that of Kanu, ekpa or Uwazuruike, the outcome will be the same.

We Igbos are going to exit this illegal British colony known as Nigeria

That means they are all not serious.

Aside Uwazurike whom that London fraud mnk used propaganda and lies to take over from, none of them have any right to breathe when the discussion of Biafra pops up.

I wonder what any sensible human being would see in mnk and Ekpa that do not have anything in Igboland as leaders.

Massob should arrange their house. It has become obvious that ipob is a very big Fraud.

Self determination is a right but what ipob have going on is self destruction, We will never allow it in SE.
