To those arguing that IPOB was not designated by any International body as a terrorist organization.

The outlawed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) is listed among the 20 deadliest terror groups in the world, even as the impact of terrorism has continued to decline in Nigeria, according to the 2023 Global Terrorism Index (GTI) report.

Nigeria is now in the eighth position globally, among the countries that have been hard hit by terrorism in 2022, according to the report. Nigeria had occupied the sixth position in last year’s report and was in the third position for more than three years before last year.

Afghanistan, for the fourth consecutive year, is the country most impacted by terrorism, followed by three African countries – Burkina Faso (second position), Somalia (third) and Mali (fourth).
Syria is in the fifth position, while Pakistan is sixth, and Iraq, seventh.

After Nigeria, Myanmar (Burma) comes next in the ninth position, while Nigeria’s neighbour, Niger Republic, is ranked 10th, among the countries hard hit by terrorism in 2022.

The GTI report, released on Tuesday, is in its 10th edition. It tracks terrorism incidents across the world.

It is produced by the Institute for Economics & Peace, an independent, non-partisan, non-profit think tank which is headquartered in Sydney, Australia.

The GTI report placed IPOB in the 10th position among the deadliest terror groups in the world, while Islamic State, operating around Iraq and Syria, is top on the list.

Islamic State West Africa (ISWA), occupying a sixth position on the global scale, is ranked as the deadliest terror group in Nigeria, followed by Boko Haram, which is the seventh on the global scale.

“The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), designated as a terrorist group by the Nigerian government in 2017, recorded their deadliest year in 2022. They were responsible for 40 attacks and 57 deaths in 2022, an increase from 26 attacks and 34 deaths the year prior,” the report said.

IPOB is leading the agitation for the independent state of Biafra, which it wants carved out of the Igbo speaking south-east region and some parts of South-south Nigeria.

Last year’s GTI report attributed the increase in attacks on police and other security agencies in Nigeria to clashes between law enforcement and IPOB.

“Law enforcement, including police and prison officers overtook both military and civilians as the most targeted group of 2021. Attacks against police and prisons increased substantially from one recorded attack in 2020 to 75 in 2021, accounting for over a third of all attacks in Nigeria in 2021.

“This was largely driven by an increase in clashes between law enforcement and separatist groups, such as the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).”
The IPOB leader, Nnamdi Kanu is detained in Abuja, accused of terrorism.

Global Terrorism Index database is located in the US. So, think before you talk.

Stale propaganda from the APC laptop situated at Bourdillion. If IPOB is among the top twenty, then OPC is among the top five.

IPOB is a terrorists group, anyone supporting it is a terrorist.

Are you not proud of Nigeria for producing so many terrorist groups?

I can see so many international investors, tourists, innovators and expatriates flocking to Nigeria in the future because Nigeria has so many terrorist groups including IPOB

Yes, Nigeria will be great again

See the dates, this started in 2020 during Endsars protest when Kanu instructed ipob to attack prisons and release the criminals.

Sudden the allegations of Christain genocide is rattling them so much that they have to latch unto this stale propaganda. The real terrorists are well known the world.

The miyetti Allah was the 4th global terrorists group. The UAE forwarded the names of many BH terrorists sponsors including a serving minister back then to the Nigerian govt, but what become of it?Waiting for the day the UN will proscribe IPOB as a terrorist organization

Arda1000:
Just Dey play.
Bring news abeg this one no follow

Since it involves Ipob, it can't be news

Putindbutt:

Guess Nnamdi Kanu is also responsible for all the numerous prison breaks in Niger, Katonkerife, and the dread Kuje prisons in Abuja? What about BH terrorists invasion of the NDA and Nigerian Army University Biu?

Finally, you can no longer disguise. This one don hook you for throat after a long time of denying
The next thing now is for you to start shifting the goal post and changing mouth.

Tinubu is busy destroying the economy of Nigeria, while his laptop boyz are busy distracting Nigerians with frivolities.

If you like, call IPOB whatever you like, na you sabi. But tell Tinubu that the real terrorists in Kwara and northern Nigeria are killing innocent Nigérians.

After shouting Buhari for 8years, they have shifted to Tinubu but not for once have they shouted Ipob and Nnamdi Kanu who have turned the economy of the region to desolate.

I tire o, they are very quick at pointing fingers are others but would deny their own atrocities.

Nnamdi Kanu is responsible for ipob terrorism in Nigeria just as Mohammed Yusuf was responsible for Bokoharam. Make everybody accept their own responsibility.
