IJAW Youth Council, IYC, has angrily criticise the recent ban of Indigenous People of Biafra, by the South-East governors, saying it's unthinkable.

In a statement released by the Council, they declared the ban as “unconstitutional as it is targeted to silence right to freedom of peaceful assembly and association” when “herdsmen that have massacred thousands of unarmed Nigerians across the country have not been declared terrorists.”


The statement further said: “The government should also jettison its plan to re-arrest Nnamdi Kanu. The only solution is to engage him in dialogue.”

The statement by Mr. Roland Pereotubo, President of the Youth body, angrily said the governors' action to ban IPOB was “more of cowardice as it cannot stop the agitation in the region.


“Their (South-East governors) rash and brazen action is even at variance with international treaties empowering indigenous people to pursue self-determination through non-violence.

“IPOB members are only fighting for their rights through non-violence means. They felt marginalised, segregated and dejected. Oppression and injustice are the reasons why they are fighting for their freedom.

“The non-violence approach they took is within the ambit of international treaties, especially the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the African Charter on Human and Peoples Rights, which have empowered indigenous people in any of the member countries, who feel oppressed, to seek for freedom. These treaties are being codified in our domestic laws.

“The solution to IPOB, MASSOB and BIM’s separatists struggle in the South-East as well as the militants’ agitations in the Niger Delta region is through dialogue as no amount of proscription of these armless associations will cow the people into submitting their agitations to the oppressors.”

IYC voiced out to the South-East governors to stand up to their responsibilities and meet with the President to address issues of marginalization and one-sided appointments in the Southeast.

Fake news

Because its coming from an angle you didn't expect you term it Fake. but if APC and PMB inform you that they have created 11million jobs and Nigeria economy is growing at 6.2% in the last two years you will believe it hook,line,and sinker.

They better criticize them because their own SS governors are currently working to repeat the same carnage in SS...Operation Creek Crocodile on militants.

Since when did ijaws start giving igbos advise?

IPOB can't be be banned, it is not a government organization or political organization but rather a people's movement.

You can't ban the people.

Boot lickers, they cant stand up and defend their people. Always afraid, stand up and speak for your people useless SE governors

Did you listen to Orji kalu's nonsensical statement yesterday on TV. Go to channels' TV youtube channel and listen to the garbage the numbskull was spilling out against Kanu and IPOB because he lost his relevance to them

Those S.E Governors? We are waiting for for them come 2019, they couldn't even hold their ground, the whole south (SS, SW, SE) is speaking with one voice except them. That which they seek to protect will they lose.

Forget Kalu, his political relevance is chilling in the morgue.

A Referendum will determine whether SOUTH SOUTH is for Biafra or not. No true son of S/S is happy with the way our resources is deployed to developed other regions while we wallow in poverty and degradation. We'll support Biafra to get our land back from the evil occupants and negotiate with our southeast brothers on how to co-own our country called Biafra (CONFEDERATION)

The south eastern governors both past and present including the so called senators are the singular reason why the igbos are been marginalized. Just because little pittance the governors are getting all in the name of monthly allocation on one side and the allowance our corrupt, selfish and self centered senators and house of rep members are collecting which they can not even be used to better the lives of its citizens. Just weeping...

You Easterners better keep your Biafra to Igbo land. If a referendum will ever be conducted in Niger Delta, it will be in the Igbo-speaking part of the Niger Delta. The other tribes of the South South region have warned you Igbo's to stay off their lands. Abi dem tell Una say Niger Delta nor go fit go form their own country too. Before Biafra, there was a Niger Delta Republic.

so in you dreams you believed an average South South or the artificial Creation (Niger delta ) by Hausa/Fulani military men are comfortable with parasites like you. If we're comfortable with your parasitic nature why the did the likes of Tompolo,Asiri Dokubo, Saro Wiwa etc asking the parasitic Hausa/Fulani to stop stealing our resources. I believe you don't know anything about history. I can't disown my brothers in the southeast whether you like it it or not.

I guess you have not heard that an Ijaw man Isaac Adaka Boro was the first to attempt secession in Nigeria. Guess the name he called the country Niger Delta Republic. BTW, the Ijaws, Urhobos, Isokos, Ogonis, Itsekiris, Efiks, or Ibibios do not see the Igbos as their brothers. Even the Ikweres and most Aniomas do not even acknowledge that they are Igbos. I wonder why Easterners are claiming sudden brotherhood with the tribes in the Niger Delta region. Many of the Niger Delta tribes, including the Ijaws that were the Igbo's in the old a eastern region, even fought against the Igbos during the civil war. Don't ever think any sane Niger Delta man will want to be part of an Igbo-dominated Biafra?

For now the Hausas are the parasites. In Biafra, the Igbos will be the parasites. The Igbos will do exactly what the Hausa's are doing now in Biafra just like they did in the old Eastern region. Or do you think the average Niger Delta is too daft to figure that out? Neither are we too draft too to know that a Niger Delta republic is our best choice if this country decided to break up.

Bro.many Niger delta children are grandchildren in igbo land and vice versa.deal with that?

I don't need to prove where I come from to you,cos its always difficult for all the parasites to believe some of us love our direct neighbours more than we love those parasites from the North even Asari Dokubo acknowledge it.A country where every component unit will control their God given resources (CONFEDERAL SYSTEM)- I believe in the old Eastern Region more than I do with Nigeria. Hard but you've to deal with it. I'll rather co-own a country with a peace loving people than stay with an average Hausa/Fulani who will slaughter me and dislodge my village because someone somewhere in Denmark draw a cartoon of their Prophet.

Mynd44, I expect this thread to be given the attention it deserves.

To the topic, it is immediately clear that the government intends to start with IPOB by illegally proscribing it, so it can use it as a reference point should it decide to declare militant groups as terrorist organizations in the near future.

The IYC has seen the ruse as I have, and I expect the condemnation from other quarters of the SS landscape to be total and definite.

The SS would not accept this stup*dity.
