IPOB Hails Members’ Peaceful Protest In Aba Seeking Nnamdi Kanu’s Release

The leadership of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB has commended its members in Aba in Abia state for their peaceful protest on Friday against the continued detention of their leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.

In a press release on Sunday by the group’s Media and Publicity Secretary Comrade Emma Powerful and made available to ABN TV, the secessionist group said this is to show that IPOB is not a violent group.

“The global movement and family of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) under the command and leadership of our great leader Mazi Nnamdi KANU commends IPOB family members in Aba, Abia State Aba Provence over the peaceful protest at Aba yesterday, 4th of November 2022 demanding for the unconditional release of our Leader from DSS Custody as Appeal Court has ordered.

“It came to the knowledge of IPOB leadership that while IPOB family members and other lovers of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu were peacefully matching, some unscrupulous elements and criminals including political thugs used the opportunity of the peaceful protest to destroy some of the political billboards in the Enyimba City (Aba). IPOB has no political enemies that will warrant us to destroy political billboards of any political party or persons.

“Therefore, we want everyone to understand that IPOB members were not responsible for the destruction of any political billboards at Aba yesterday. It’s on record that for over 8 years IPOB has protested everywhere in the world and we have been peaceful, civil, and well-organized. Never, has there been any record of violence, destruction, or loss of property. We never elicit unwarranted military assaults from Nigeria Security Forces.

“We are warning political enemies and oppositions to settle their problems and leave IPOB out of their predicaments and misunderstandings. The only politics IPOB will be interested in is Biafra Referendum and any politics involved in that process.

“In another development, IPOB has no hands in kidnapping a military man from Ohafia LGA, IPOB found out that the military missed his road and delayed in joining his colleagues in their vehicle, army declared him kidnapped by IPOB members, we are not kidnappers or killers nobody should blame or linking with such blackmail.

“IPOB members are only after the release of our Leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu from DSS custody since the Courts of competent jurisdictions have discharged and acquitted him from all charges. We are not interested in Nigeria’s fraudulent elections or selection and whoever becomes next British and Fulani slave as President.

“We are warning IPOB family members to watch out for any political thug who wants to hide under IPOB to attack their political enemies or carry out any destruction of opposition’s properties. We advise Biafrans to be vigilant and never allow political enemies and infiltrators to spoil the hallowed name of IPOB.

“IPOB once again says we are not responsible for any destruction of political billboards at Aba or responsible for the kidnapping of Nigeria military in Ohafia LGA we are aware that Nigeria Government and its security agents especially the military, police, and DSS agents want to take over Ohafia LGA for Fulani terrorists masquerading as herdsmen in Abia State or elsewhere in the Biafra Region.

“CONGRATULATIONS to Aba, Abia Family!”
