The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) on Tuesday held “Trump Solidarity Rallies” across parts of the South-East, with demonstrators renewing calls for the immediate and unconditional release of its detained leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.

In a press release issued by its Media and Publicity Directorate, IPOB stated that the rallies and peaceful marches took place simultaneously in Abia, Anambra and Ebonyi states, drawing participation from youths, women and elders.

According to the group, the rallies were organised both in solidarity and in remembrance of ‘Biafrans’ (southeasterners) who were killed nine years ago during protests held on the day of former United States President Donald Trump’s first inauguration.

“Youths, women, and elders came out in large numbers to peacefully demonstrate in solidarity and in remembrance of our people who were brutally killed exactly nine years ago during the first inauguration of President Donald Trump,” the statement said. IPOB alleged that the killings occurred when Nigerian soldiers opened fire on unarmed demonstrators.

“Nigerian soldiers, acting under the directives of the then ruling APC-led government, opened fire on unarmed Biafran demonstrators,” the group said.

Despite what it described as persistent insecurity and repression in the region, IPOB said ‘Biafrans’ remained undeterred.

“Despite the ongoing and relentless pogrom in Biafraland, and the atmosphere of intimidation, persecution and insecurity deliberately imposed on the South-East, Biafrans continue to defy fear and oppression,” the statement read. “A people determined to be free cannot be permanently subdued.”

The group said protesters carried placards, banners and photographs of Nnamdi Kanu, whom they described as central to the current tensions in the region.

“Participants renewed their demand for his immediate and unconditional release, insisting that his continued detention remains a major catalyst for tension and instability,” IPOB stated.

The rallying crowd also reportedly called for broader accountability over past and present security issues in the South-East.

“The rallying crowd called for an independent inquiry into the Port Harcourt killings and the wider, worsening insecurity ravaging the South-East,” the statement said, adding that “truth, accountability and justice are indispensable to peace.”

IPOB maintained that its activities are non-violent and lawful, while appealing to security agencies and the international community.

“IPOB reiterates that all our activities remain peaceful and lawful,” the group said.

“We urge the security agencies to respect the fundamental rights of citizens to peaceful assembly.”

The organisation also called on foreign governments and human rights bodies to intervene.

“We call on the international community to take urgent interest in the deteriorating human rights situation in the South-East of Nigeria,” the statement added.

Nigerian islamists are pro Arab, but when we Christians start showing solidarity to America and Israel they will start crying ..

Clowns..

God bless my Christian brothers!

Very good, show solidarity to the US. While others show solidarity to Hamas and ISIS.

Why are they covering their faces if they mean well.

Nigeria has no business been one country.

The cultural, religious, political and social divides are overwhelming!

The question is, do some people still have free will? Thou shall not bow or worship anyone, anything. What's this?

How a large group of people will sleep and face the same direction should be added to the new wonders in the world

If Trump vacate power after 3 years and if democrats win the next election, would Ipob have any means of lobbying with Democrats government with their glaring romancing with Trump...

That name ipob/ESN has been bastardized and associated with evils as well as terrorism worldwide. Two of their leaders are serving jail terms for attrocities committed. They should consider changing that name if they want to push another agenda. Their uniforms and flags look like that of satanic costumes, they should change all of them to push another agenda if they wish to be heard or not.

You are free to begin the end of 'one Nigeria' by dedicating yourselves to remaining in your region of origin na.

You say other Nigerians are your problems. Then why are you in their region in milion and still moving there in literally many thousands from your SE daily?

Your Nigerian soldiers dey wear masks sometimes on road blocks. Why are you not saying anything concerning that?

Exactly.

Behave urzef.This is old news

That's not true. IPOB is only a terrorist group in Nigeria media not in physical or, any other place in the world. That's why they were able to convince US congressmen about the Christian genocide that is going on in Nigeria. The name IPOB dey put fear for una body wotowoto and that's the reason why you want the name changed

So that your DSS doesn't go and lock people up for years without charge just because they peacefully protested.

You mean the same way Nigerians are trooping to other countries despite having Nigeria since 1960?

Another joke from the ipob. So they are no longer waiting for the UK government to rescue their messiah as a UK citizens?

This is very commendable.

Trump is a man of character and integrity unlike their propaganda strategist in the disgraced country.
