Why tag ipob a terrorist group when they haven't killed a soul? Why are Fulani herds men not tagged terrorists? The unnecessary hate in Nigeria and the political imbalance is sinking the country. Its a shame that most of the youths in the country are not seeing the doom coming their way..... They are busy talking about religion, tribe and political parties. Nigeria Is a ticking bomb and many are comfortable sitting around

An Igbo group, Voice from the East (VEAST), yesterday in Enugu pleaded with the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) to use the opportunity of its ongoing meeting in the United States of America (USA) to mount pressure of President Muhammadu Buhari to remove the terrorist tag on the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).

The group, in a statement signed by its convener, Comrade Kindness Jonah, stated that the invitation extended to the IPOB leader, Nnamdi Kanu, by the European Parliament, is evident that the group is championing self-determination.

“We have been inundated with the outcome of the invitation of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu to address European Parliament on the issue of Biafra. Many have expressed reservations on the invitation by the body on somebody that the Nigerian Government tagged ‘a terrorist’.

VEAST pointed out that the terrorist tag on IPOB by Buhari–led government when juxtaposed with the invitation and Nkanu’s landmark address had been “rubbished”.

Commenting further, Jonah queried: “How can a leader of a terrorist ‘group’ be invited to address such a body like European Parliament, yet, Nigerian government calls it terrorist group?

Speaking sarcastically, he said: “IPOB is a terrorist group, but European Parliament invited it; killer herdsmen are aberrantly killing but are not terrorist group, yet, they could not be invited, and Boko Haram, a ‘co- terrorist group’ with IPOB could not be invited.



“Nigeria by this episodic invitation has been pragmatically presented as a Hobbesian state and theater of absurdities. This two ideologues are irreconcilable.”

As if invitation by European Parliament was not enough, stressed Comrade Jonah, United Nations Special Committee of the General Assembly has invited Nnamdi Kanu, the first Nigerian to be so honoured, to speak on Biafra issues as did the European Parliament, the group claimed.

“VEAST is therefore calling on UN to prevail on President Muhammadu Bihari to remove the terrorist tag on IPOB and dialogue with the group like they are doing with bandits, killer herdsmen and kidnappers in the North,” he said.

The group said it has come to the firm conclusion that “semantics of a religious order and not stubborn facts was squarely responsible for the fiendish tag of a terrorist group on IPOB by the government”.

Comrade Jonah called on the Federal Government to unconditionally cancel the unfounded terrorist tag on IPOB and perfectly restructure Nigeria, if it ever thought of stopping Biafra agitation.

IPOB should stop acting like cowards, look at Sowore and Falana they took the noble part and took FG to court instead of chest beating and making frivolous demands online

Is it like there are no competent Lawyers or Legal Luminary like Falana SAN, or Olanepekun SAN in the whole of Ibo land? or why are they silent, atleast we know lossers like Onyeakachi Ikpeazu SAN and Prof Nwabueze SAN, abi its only Atiku's money they can chop, they cant do a pro bono work for IPOB

...

Are you in Togo or Nigeria Ipob beleives in legal system. Upon tagging them terrorist org , Ipob went to court to obtain justice for the reversal of terrorist target but up till now the court has refused to hear the car .

You want boast about Yoruba lawyer , have you forgotten that Nnandi kanu was granted bail 3 times. ?

what differ ipob from book boyz

If you go by this definition, you will even see that IPOB is not a terrorist organisation

If we were to go by this definition of terrorism, the entire political class of Nigeria, those who have hired thugs, armed them, threatend voters, intimidated them, used violence to rig elections, killed people etc, would all be declared terrorists

If we are to go by this definition, 95% of all Nigerian politicians who have used violence for political gain, are terrorists

Your definition says that a terrorist is a person who uses violence and intimidation in pursuit of political aims? When has IPOB ever used violence or intimidation to get Biafra? Yes it is true that IPOB has clashed with the security forces and it turned violent but this happens in every country that peaceful protest will occasionally turn violent. It has happend with the NLC, NANS, Occupy Nigeria and many others.

When has IPOB used ever used violence to get Biafra? Where have they been killing people and destroying lives and property to get Biafra? Why did the USA and the EU say they are not a terrorist organisation?

IPOB has never been a terrorist organisation

Theres no such thing as a terrorist group that is unarmed and doesn't kill people.


Self government of where? Even Nnamdi Kanu's home town is still being administered by Umuahia South LGA so where is IPOB governing?


What makes a military is being armed. If you are not armed, you are not military. He said he was going to get the head of the president? I forgot you Nigerians are so backward that you think just talking is a crime




Everybody has a flag, Oduduwa, Arewa,Biafra, Tiv, NLC etc. Its only when it comes to Biafrans that everyone thinks it's a crime to have a flag



The law allows anybody to agitate for independence. That's how people like Zik and Awolowo got you the independence you celebrate every 1st October



The government of Buhari just abuses and uses the anti-terrorism laws of Nigeria to to shut up agitation he doesn't like
I stopped reading where you foolishly claim talking is not a crime.

there is no different between ipob and boko boyz .
-both are terrorist
-both decrees self government
-both form there military to fight the federal government, one even said he will go to Abuja and remove the head of PMB
- both parade different national flag
- both temper with the unity of one Nigeria
one funny thing ipob didn't understand is that two Fulanis occupied the second and third position in UN governing body, the work under Buhari before resigning to take the position, do you think they will support ipob against Nigeria?

@akelicious

The Bane of the Biafra struggle is their changing what should be a struggle for Israel, YAH's people, to a political struggle for the Igbo race. Plus their seeking to be accepted by the Jewish people currently in the land of Israel.

For example, I know of certain Nigerian Hebrew Israelites living in South-Eastern Nigeria (Cross River State), bordering Cameroon. From my research, these are of the tribe of Judah; people and villages that still go by their Hebrew names.

These and several other Israelite tribes in the South-East and South-South and South-West Nigeria do not trust the Igbo tribe and do not desire to be part of their Biafra because of past experiences.

In conclusion, This is a call to unite, not just politically through Biafra; but as YAH's people, recognizing ourselves for who we truly are (ISRAEL) and keeping YAH's laws and commandments. Only then shall deliverance come.

May you be granted a good understanding.

A few fulanis that are involved in some acts of violence in Nigeria do not do it calling themselves fulani. Buhari did not declare Igbos terrorist, he declared Ipob and not every Igbo is a registered or even supports the Ipob idiosyncrasies.

Notwithstanding, Terrorism connotes any acts of violence in peacetime, done by any group against civilians, government, govermental military or any military neutralized by the government. Please go and review the atrocities done by Ipob before they were declared terrorist.

Please list this attrocoties for the benefit of those sitting on the fence to really have a grasp of the evils of IPOB.
