IPOB PRESS RELEASE,
11th October, 2024.
The Directorate of State (DOS) of the global family and movement of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) wish to debunk the falsehood by the Nigeria Army Spokesperson that IPOB is deceiving Igbo youths not join the ongoing military cadet recruitment. IPOB is not deceiving Igbo youths but stating the obvious because the Nigerian Army is a terror infested institution that is working with Fulani terrorists to take over Alaigbo or Biafra Land.
The treacherous Army spokesman, Maj.Gen Onyema Nwachukwu, claimed that IPOB does not have the interest of Ndigbo at heart. On the contrary, IPOB has the interest of the Igbo people at heart, unlike Onyema Nwachukwu and the Nigerian military that has only brought death and ruins to Ndigbo since before 1967 until date. The Nigerian Army is an Islamic tribal bigotry institution that has contributed to the death of many Igbo people and the destruction of properties in the southeast.
The Nigerian Army is an institution that has recruited many of the so-called repentant terrorists in Boko Haram who murdered thousands of Southern soldiers in the Nigerian Army. IPOB is exposing them for what they are doing against Ndigbo and Biafran youths. The recruitment of terrorists and bandits into the Nigerian Army have endangered the lives of Biafran soldiers in the Nigerian Army. Many of the serving Igbo soldiers who frowned upon the recruitment of the Boko Haram terrorists were sent to the slaughter house by the terrorists themselves using false flag operations to kill Biafrans in the Nigeria military.
The Nigerian government and her murderous security agencies knew very well that Igbo servicemen are not fairly treated like others from other ethnic groups. IPOB has the voice of Ndigbo, and it is our responsibility to warn our people ahead of impending danger.
The Nigeria military spokesman claimed that IPOB is responsible for the ongoing infamous Monday sit-at-home order. On the contrary, IPOB has several press releases in the past three (3) years, distancing ourselves from the Monday sit-at-homes. Rather, it is the Nigeria Army and her sister Security Agencies that recruited and sponsored criminals enforcing Monday sit-at-home after IPOB suspended sit-at-home over 3 years ago just to demonise and blackmail the great movement of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB. We have instances where the Nigerian Army was enforcing Monday sit-at-homes at various villages in the southeast.
The notorious Nigerian Army and Police were tacitly supporting the Monday sit-at-home order and other violent crimes like kidnapping for ransom, car snatching, arson, and killings of Biafrans. IPOB will release the videos where Nigerian soldiers and other security agencies were enforcing Monday sit-at-home ordered by their agent in Finland and his criminal gangs while using the media to pin their actions on the IPOB family. That is why the notorious Nigerian Army once claimed that their criminal agent in Finland is the leader of IPOB just to blackmail IPOB locally and internationally. Unfortunately for them, and fortunately for us, they failed woefully because IPOB distanced ourselves from their recruited Autopilot Criminals and their violent activities.
Now that their strategy to demonize IPOB has failed using the autopilot criminals without airplane, the Nigerian Army and Police have launched a manhunt against the agent provocateurs they recruited and funded for over 3 years now.
IPOB wish to maintain our stand that Ndigbo and Biafran youths should avoid the Nigerian Army recruitment for their own safety. It is stupidity to join an Islamic tribal bigotry Army where your personal interest and that of your ethnic group's survival is considered a threat. Before joining the Nigerian Army, one should inquire from the serving Igbo soldiers how they are being treated in the Nigerian Army. The Sabo military spokesman is an Igbo man but claimed that the Nigerian Army valued merit above creed, tribe and religion because he sabotaged Ndigbo before he climbed to such position.
When have you heard or seen that Fulanis were more qualified in academics or skills than Ndigbo, so to be more recruited in the Nigerian Security Agencies than Ndigbo?
IPOB challenged the Nigeria Army to publish Igbo soldiers at the decision-making level in the Nigerian government or military. The Nigerian government will always appoint an Igbo person as a spokesperson in many Security Agencies in order to use them to lie against IPOB and deceive Ndigbo.
Our promise to those willing treacherous Igbo propagandists for the Nigerian government is that "they will come back in shame" like their former colleagues who are hiding their faces in shame after serving the interest of the Zoo against Ndigbo.
IPOB and ESN Operatives are not terrorists, kidnappers, or criminals. IPOB is a disciplined global movement seeking Biafra's self-determination through UN supervised referendum. Though the Nigerian government and her murderous security agencies have in the past ten (10) years sponsored criminals to impersonate IPOB but we have always prevailed.
We have challenged the Nigeria Army to provide evidence of an IPOB member involved in any kidnap case except those they paid to claim to be IPOB and ESN members. We maintain that the Nigerian Security Agencies are responsible for the criminalities and insecurities going in the South East Region today. That's why the Nigerian Army has never stopped any Fulani terrorist attacks on the people of the South East even when they receive the security alert before the attacks. Instead of going after the murderous Fulani terrorists, the fulanized Nigerian Army will go after ESN Operatives, who are dislodging the Fulani terrorists.
Irrespective of the collaborations between the Nigerian Security Agencies, their recruited Autopilot Criminals and the Fulani terrorists, IPOB, and ESN Operatives remain resolute to defend Biafra land and to restore Biafran sovereignty.
COMRADE EMMA POWERFUL, MEDIA, AND PUBLICITY SECRETARY FOR IPOB.
