IPOB PRESS RELEASE
31/08/2023
The global family and movement of the Indigenous People of
Biafra (IPOB) ably led by the great and indefatigable leader and liberator Mazi
Nnamdi Okwuchukwu KANU wish to debunk and refute the fallacious and fabricated
statement from the Nigeria Police of a fake arrest of 150 members of ESN who
were fleeing out of South East Region. The public should ignore the Nigeria
Police's cooked up lies and blackmail against IPOB and ESN as there were no ESN
Operatives arrested.
IPOB-ESN has never engaged in any criminal activities
besides their primary role of dislodging Fulani terrorists nicknamed herdsmen
since its formation. Meanwhile, IPOB and ESN do not know who the unknown gunmen
are, and we have several times disassociated ourselves from their activities.
IPOB agitation has been peaceful for over 10 years with no trace of violence
irrespective of Nigeria Securitys' brutality. But the activities of unknown
gunmen in the East started about 3 years ago after DSS masterminded the Owerri
prison break to recruit criminals used for distabelizing the South East in
order to blackmail the IPOB struggle.
It's certain that the Nigeria government and it's Security
Agencies with their intels knew those behind the unknown gunmen and other state
and non-state actors responsible for the criminalities going on in Biafra
territory. They have refused to name the criminals because they want to use
their activities to demonize IPOB and ESN operatives. But by the grace of
Elohim, Chukwu Okike Abiama, all their gimmicks and antics against IPOB and ESN
have failed them.
All frivolous accusations by the Nigerian Police against the
peaceful IPOB and the responsible ESN volunteers due to their hatred against
Biafrans and IPOB members for wanting to exit the contraption called Nigeria.
IPOB is resolute and focused, and the Nigeria Government and its Security
Agencies, particularly their DSS and Police won't distract us. Our aim is to
restore Biafra Nation, and nothing will deter our resolve in achieving total
freedom and independence of Biafra Nation. Not when so many blood of Biafrans
have been wasted by the Nigeria State.
The continuous linking of IPOB to unknown gunmen by the
Nigeria government and her Security Agencies for years without facts to
subatantiate it is evidence that their cheap blackmail is ineffective. IPOB has
remained peaceful, irrespective of all provocations from the Nigeria
government. We are not criminals. We are an organized, peaceful, freedom
fighting movement fighting to secure the freedom of the Biafran people. Any day
we change from our peaceful approach, we shall make our new approach public.
Against the latest propaganda from the Nigeria Police, we
state that all IPOB and ESN Operatives are intact. Non has moved away from
their location. We are not and can not involve ourselves in any activity that
will highten the insecurity situation in our region. IPOB and ESN have been at
the forefront in maintaining peace and calmness in the region. Nigeria's government, with her security
agencies and some sections of compromised media houses in the zoo, must leave
IPOB and ESN alone. We are not after them. They should not be against us.
Nigeria's government and her security agencies are very
aware of those behind the mask of the unknown gunmen. That is why you can only hear
the arrest of unknown gunmen by the Police on media, but you can't see the
so-called unknown gunmen arraigned in the law courts. Anytime Nigeria Police
arrests criminals, they force them to confess being members of IPOB or ESN, and
the same suspect will never be brought to court for legal interrogations. Such
caricature arrest and cheap blackmail end up in the media because the Nigeria
journalists don't ask questions.
The public should ignore Nigeria Police's cheap blackmail.
There is nothing like 150 IPOB or ESN members chased away or arrested. IPOB and ESN formations are intact more than
before. We have strategically organized ourselves to stop the insecurity
ravaging our land. We can not allow both ordinary and sponsored criminals to
make our territory unattractive for investment or retirement for indigenes.
COMRADE EMMA POWERFUL, MEDIA, AND PUBLICITY SECRETARY FOR
IPOB
