Press Statement
The Hand Behind The Trigger.
The Directorate of State of the Indigenous People of Biafra (the DOS) was never and is not under any illusion whatsoever about the powerful forces that have aligned themselves against the total freedom and emancipation of the Biafran people from the contrived and imposed subjugation of our land and people for the, sole benefit of these powerful forces. We are also not oblivious of the fact that these forces will go to any length to maintain their stranglehold over our land, trusting in the enormous resources at their disposal and their control of information through their disparate disinformation outlets. However, what they seem to ignore is the fact that our hunger and thirst for freedom, the freedom of our land, the freedom of our children, the freedom of our generations yet unborn and the dignity inherent in us as a people outweigh by a very long shot their selfish reasons for arraying and aligning their forces against us. The reason is simple. While they are motivated and driven by their greed to control our land and steal our resources, the Biafran people on the other hand, are propelled by an innate instinct for survival. It is this survival instinct that brought together the army of volunteers called the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) whose commitment to the birthing of an idea for which its time has come is unwavering.
The IPOB leadership need to take our people briefly down the memory lane. The state-sponsored cold-blooded murder of the Biafran people began in the 1940s under the watch of the British, then the colonialists, who believe that they have a score to settle with the Biafran people for daring to resist their evil intentions of making us a “country of subjects”. Fast forward to the 1960’s, Harold Wilson a former British Prime Minister encapsulated the policy of the British establishment then during the British instigated genocide and its policy now with his infamous statement that the death of half a million Biafran children will have no bearing whatsoever to their continued supply of weapons of annihilation to the Nigerian government (their proxy) to use those weapons to do their dirty work for them.
To put the above historical perspective into context of the present agitation to reclaim our sovereignty being championed by the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), our people need to comprehend the fact that the British establishment sees IPOB as its greatest enemy in the mould of our great ancestors, the EKUMEKU WARRIORS, who waged an uncompromising battle against the invaders. This understanding will prepare us for the battle ahead for us to be on the lookout for their proxies, whom they will use to infiltrate us and fight us from within. Some of these proxies, apart from the Nigerian government, include our very own politicians serving Nigeria in different capacities, answering Senators, Drs, Professors, Engineers, the Clergy, Media outlets, international organisations and foreign governments.
It is this state of affairs that explains the flooding of our land and territory with all manner of forces both state actors and non state actors to commit all manner of heinous crimes and abominations against our land and against our people with the sole objective of turning the Biafran people against the only genuine non violent movement fighting to liberate our people from becoming a “country of subjects” of the British establishment.
The most recent case in point in the conspiracy of the British establishment to disillusion, discourage and demoralise Biafrans to repudiate their inalienable right to Self determination was the elevation by their Media proxies of a man who openly claims to be a murderer and kidnapper of his people as being a member and a leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra IPOB. The Nigerian Media and certain WESTERN MEDIA HOUSES, BBC, AP, DW, FACEBOOK etc, despite available and verifiable information to the contrary, have continued to associate Mr. Simon Ekpa with IPOB in order to achieve their preordained objective of discrediting and criminalising our genuine and just demand for self determination. How any sane and reasonable man on the street will believe the Nigerian government and the Media’s narrative that Simon Ekpa an infiltrator whom former governor of Ebonyi State, David Umahi attempted to bring into IPOB, who never spoke on our hallowed Radio Biafra, never belonged to any IPOB family, is now suddenly the leader of IPOB beats my imagination. Thanks to our internal checks and balances, when he was brought to us , he failed our simple rule of admitting people into the IPOB global family.
The trial and conviction of Mr. Simon Ekpa for terrorism offences does not call for any form of celebration whatsoever; rather, it should reinforce the resolve of all IPOB family members worldwide to be very vigilant and not to let our guards down because his conviction is not the ultimate objective of those who recruited him. Their eyes are set on the destruction of our collective will to extricate ourselves from the debilitating and undignified position of “country of subjects” which the British created Nigeria to be. In spite of the plethora of evidence in the public domain from 2021 to the present when the leadership of the Indigenous People of Biafra unequivocally communicated to media houses, the International community and the Finish government that Mr Simon Ekpa never belonged to and does not belong to the Biafran Self determination movement called the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), the British government, the Nigerian government and their media houses continued to associate him, his crimes against his own people, the crimes committed by other non state actors and common criminals under the employ of the Nigerian state to IPOB with the belief that if they continue to murder innocent Biafrans in cold blood and attribute these heinous crimes against humanity and abomination against the land to IPOB, Biafrans will reject IPOB and repudiate their right to Self determination. Biafrans must understand that the ultimate plan of the British working through Nigeria and all their other proxies is to designate IPOB a (Terror Organisation) in the international arena and use that as a leverage to activate another genocidal war against Biafrans. This is the calculation of the “HAND BEHIND THE TRIGGER.”
The Directorate of State of the Indigenous People of Biafra (DOS) since 2015 have communicated and visited the United Nations, the African Union, the African Human Rights Commission, The ECOWAS, the European Commission, the European Parliament, the DOS have written to all European Countries where we have IPOB presence, the US, Canada, Australia and other international organisations about the atrocities of the Nigerian government against innocent Biafrans, we have called rallies in these countries to inform these governments and raise awareness about the violations of the human rights of Biafran Men, Women and Children. These actions undertaken by the IPOB DOS are not the modus operandi of a terror movement, as the British and Nigeria are working so hard to make the world believe and most importantly convince our people to view us through that prism.
The Directorate of State want to restate that the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) is a global movement with defined structures; it is a movement with identifiable institutions. IPOB is a self determination movement guided by fundamental ideological principles with inbuilt checks and balances to prevent both members and agent provocateurs from hijacking and derailing or deviating from our core fundamental objective of a peaceful Self Determination for the Biafran people.
The DOS therefore want to use this medium to commend the global IPOB family for their resilience, their dedication to their respective duties, their devotion to our just cause for freedom and enjoin them to remain steadfast for victory shall be ours at the end of this battle. We commend our friends for their support and ask them not to relent in their support until we achieve our set objective of a free, independent and sovereign Biafran nation. A nation of free people with the right to determine our Social, Cultural, Political, Economic and developmental policy and not a “country of Subjects to the British the hand behind the trigger.
The DOS will roll out with specific timeline our official statements and communication to organisations and governments that Mr Simon Ekpa was never at any point in time a member of this noble movement talk less of being among the ranks of the leaders of the indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).
Signed
Mazi Chika Edoziem
Head of Directorate of State of the
Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB)

Simon Ekpa is your government agent of provocateur.

Anyway it's a know fact Yorubas are taught from kids by their parents to hate omo Igbos.


Simon Ekpa have always been boy of your zoo APC government, and DOS in charge, you don't know because you don't care to know, you believe every lies your zoo government dish out you through their compromised media, that is why your Nigeria is currently in this state.
Below 👇 screenshot is Ipob making their stand on Simon ekpa for over the years, but you choose to believe your zoo government forcing their agent in ipob with their media propaganda and lies.



As for Obi,I don't care about his political ambition,I didn't vote him before and won't vote him tomorrow.

Even though your Tinubu APC political stupid!ity is in charge, you as a yoruba man is not better than common Igbo man out there.


So who cares about Obi political stup!idity.

Just know we don't care about your hatred,we are already used to it,we just want a separate country where things will work, unlike Nigeria.

The press release by IPOB DOS is highly commendable.

My only issue is that an individual registered IPOB in his name and has made himself an authority whose whims far outweigh any resolutions from DOS. That's highly dangerous.
I suppose DOS is aware of that which is why they didn't start littering this press release with LED BY SUPRRME LEADER NNAMDI KANU clauses.

Nnamdi Kanu does not have what it takes to lead the igbo race. Henceforth anybody that aspires to lead must have a track record of brilliant leadership in the corporate world or professional life. We don't want fringe elements who have access to the internet, using their access to the Web to hypnotize, unsuspecting Igbos because they are eloquent..

That was the mistake that Nazi Germany made by opting to follow an Austrian rabblerouser, because he was eloquent. Of course as expected, Hitler led Germany to oblivion.
We Igbos must not let Nnamdi Kanu lead Igbos to oblivion too.

Just like Nnamdi Kanu, Hitler had no achievements whatsoever in his personal or professional life, but his eloquence confused Germans into thinking he was intelligent and a competent leader.

I am not in any way shape or form implying that Kanu is a genocidal maniac, which Hitler definitely was. Kanu clearly wants a better situation for Igbos and other easterners. My point is that he is not qualified to lead.

A lot of the current anti-Igbo individuals in Nigeria are either Kanu's friends or spoke well of Kanu when he was free. Reno Omokri, Femi Fani Kayode, Omoyele Sowore e.t.c. This clearly shows a huge flaw in his judgement, which is capable of destroying Ndigbo.

Kanu's trip to Kenya, the same place that the leader of Kurds was also kidnapped and renditioned to Turkey, a few years earlier, also shows the unsuitability of Kanu as a leader. This action alone is enough to remove him as a leader, but I am certain if he regains his freedom, he will waltz back into IPOB leadership with no consequences for this gross incompetence. That is because IPOB is registered and owned by Kanu, and as such, none of his incompetent actions are punished. Rather he is more likely to blame others for betraying him. Classic megalomaniac move worth of Hitler.

Any person that aspires to lead Igbos must have established verifiable track record in business or professional life. Igbos must not take the chance of adopting unproven people as their leaders.

Umahi, Hope Uzodimma or Peter Obi?


And have Kanu ever stopped anyone from leading Ndi Igbo?

Just know that I used to be based in the UK, so I am aware how Kanu hijacked that IPOB acronym from those who coined it and intended it shouldn't be registered, so in a way, Kanu stopped some highly intelligent people from leading the Igbo race, because he has an internet mouthpiece.
And by the way, Kanu hijacking IPOB is not even my concern. My major concern is that he is running the concept aground. The only thing keeping the concept afloat is the passion of the Igbo public for their Biafran dream. Otherwise, Kanu has incompetently handled the Biafran issue, and his incompetence caused his rendition to Nigeria.

And by the way, Peter Obi is a much more deserving leader than Nnamdi Kanu. Peter Obi has a track record out there for everyone to see. Nnamdi Kanu doesn't.

Who are this highly intelligent people Nnamdi Kanu stopped from leading Ndi Igbo.

Give us names.

And why did they entered into oblivion?



Peter Obi much deserving leader is your personal opinion, millions of Igbos will choose Nnamdi Kanu over Obi any day and time.



Nnamdi Kanu is someone ready to sacrifice anything for Igbo land, Peter Obi is ready to sacrifice anything in Igbo land for his personal ambition to be called Nigeria president.

Eze Ozobu, late Dr. Dozie Ikedife, late Col. Hannibal Achuzia. All these mennhave verifiable track records in their professions and were elders who had the confidence of Igbo movers and shakers and an appreciable level of international contact e.t.c
