IPOB PRESS RELEASE
18th/01/2023
We the global movement and family of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) under the leadership and command of Mazi Nnamdi Okwuchukwu KANU condemns the State sponsored terrorist attack on Ikenga Imo Ugochinyere’s country home at Akokwa, Imo State.
We knew that the Nigeria Government, Hope Uzodinma, and Nigeria Security Agencies carried out the Saturday 14th of January terrorist attack on the country home of Ikenga Imo Ugochinyere’s home where his uncle and others were killed, and cars and houses set ablaze. The failed assassination attempt on Ikenga’s life is because of his solidarity with IPOB and his condemnation of the reckless action of the federal government of Nigeria’s illegal abduction of the Leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB). He was the only Igbo man who consistently condemned the illegal abduction of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu from Kenya to Nigeria and continued detention of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu in DSS custody while court of competent jurisdiction discharged and acquitted him since October 13th 2022.
He also recently demanded that the federal government release our leader Mazi Nnamdi KANU unconditionally as ordered by the Nigeria Court of Appeal, Abuja.
The DSS Director in Imo State, the Army Commander of Obinze-Owerri barracks and Hope Uzodinma’s political aide Chinasa Nwaneri masterminded this attack on Ugochinyere for calling for the release of Mazi Nnamdi KANU, especially anybody who called for release Mazi Nnamdi KANU and Hope Uzodinma killed Elder Amaechi Mbazuruike and professor George Obiozor because they called for Mazi Nnamdi Kanu’s release through chemical spraying.
They are terrorising Igbo Leaders to stop them from talking about the demand for the unconditional release of Mazi Nnamdi KANU, as the court have ordered them to do. But their intimidation will never deter us.
The heads of the above named Security Agencies must be held responsible for this heinous crime committed against this young man.
Again, Hope Uzodinma and his political contractors like Chinasa Nwaneri must also be held responsible for this terrorist attack and unabated insecurity ravaging Imo State. And IPOB must face him and his family because we cannot afford to allow him used to murder us because the vampire ruling Imo State sent him. Even if the Nigeria security agencies spear him IPOB will never spear him for doing this evil to our people, the killer must be prepared to be killed.
That is why we have requested Imo State Indigenes to plead with Rochas Okorocha, Ifeanyi Ararume, and Emeka Ihedioha to stop bringing in criminals in south East, fulani dominated Nigeria Security Agencies using the opportunity to make Imo state ungovernable. Doing so, they are giving the Imo State Vampire, Hope Uzodimma, the opportunity to continue using terrorists in the Nigeria security agencies to destroy Imo State.
The terrorist attack on Ikenga Imo Ugochinyere’s compound, which the media is reporting as gunmen attack is an indication that the Nigeria government and her security agencies including Imo State government are the unknown gunmen terrorising our people in the East and every souls must be prepared to fight these criminals in the government. But the criminals they created to demonize and blackmail IPOB and ESN have turned against them.
The recent attack on this innocent young man is the same attack style used to attack the former governor of Imo State Chief Ikedi Ohakim. The description of the terrorists who carried out the two operations are similar, he wants to eliminate every politician to pave way to rig election Imo State for APC party.
