The statement reads partly: “We are aware that Yoruba politicians are using political thugs and criminals to attack Ndigbo in Lagos, but they will regret their actions soon.
“Ndigbo in Lagos should know that IPOB is not looking for popularity but only interested in protecting *ALL* Biafrans irrespective of their location in the world until Biafra is restored and beyond.”
