The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) said the pro-separatist group has no intention to attack any region or tribe unless threatened.
The group’s Media and Publicity Secretary, Emmanuel Powerful, disclosed this in a statement on Friday while reacting to an allegation by a group that called itself the Delta Igbos that IPOB had deployed a Special Squad in Lagos to cause mayhem.
Powerful said IPOB would never attack the Yoruba nation because they are a non-violent group seeking only the freedom of its people through a referendum.
He noted that the Igbo and Yoruba had come a long way in their struggle to liberate their people from the contraption called Nigeria and urged the Lagos State Governor, Yoruba traditional rulers, their opinion moulders, politicians, Afenifere leaders, particularly Chief Gani Adams, to do all that is necessary to stop the so-called Delta Igbos and their sponsors in their tracks to avoid igniting a fire that will pitch IPOB against the Yoruba Nation agitators.
The statement reads in part: “The attention of the global family and movement of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) ably led by our great and indefatigable liberator Mazi Nnamdi Okwuchukwu KANU has been drawn to the public statement from a group, Delta Igbos alleging that IPOB had deployed IPOB Special Squad in Lagos to cause mayhem. We would have ignored this fake information from these traitors, but it’s obvious that they are working with the enemies who are recently promoting Igbophobia in Lagos.
“For the avoidance of doubt, IPOB is not and can never be a party to Nigerian politics. IPOB members are not interested in Nigerian politics and can’t be used as political thugs. IPOB will never attack any region, person, or tribe for any reason unless threatened. IPOB has never had any record of violence in all our rallies across the world.
IPOB, therefore, warned that, “those raising these false alarms should be held responsible for the arson and destruction of Igbo properties. They are the agents of the tribal bigots in Lagos who are promoting ethnic hatred against Igbos.” CONTINUE READING……………………….
