The IPOB South Korea family has issued a clarification note to the members of the Biafran public and wider global audience, why the so-called Biafra-South Korea alliance through the religious non-denominational organization, Heavenly Culture World Peace Restoration of Light [HWPL], is nothing but a hoax purveyed by Simon Ekpa, to deceive and extort from the gullible individuals who may buy in into his deceptive theatrics.
The clarification note which was sanctioned by the IPOB South Korea national coordinator, Mazi King David Eze, Family Writers Press International understands, called Ekpa a ‘Nigerian government free agent and a crime minister in exile’, citing his violent actions and antecedents against innocent unsuspecting members of Biafrans in the homeland.
Stating that the Mr Ekpa representative at the said HWPL seminar whom, he calls the Chief of Staff of his fraudulent Govt-In-Exile, Mrs Ngozi Orabueze, was an expelled former member of the IPOB movement in the United States. She was expelled the IPOB Leadership over indiscipline and gross misconduct against the IPOB movement and her objectives.
The statement continued by saying that the move to link this non-denominational prayer annual convention organized & owned by a South Korean citizen named Lee Man-hee is a mockery to the Biafra actualization quest as the organization in its core is a non-governmental and has no correlation with the South Korean government.
“It came to our notice and is high time to debunk the cheap propaganda and lies from the Nigerian free agent Simon Ekpa, the self-acclaimed Crime minister of Biafra government in Exile (BRGIE).”
“We, the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) South Korea under the leadership of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu came across on social media the photo and video of one Mrs Ngozi Orabueze, the ally of Simon Ekpa. The former, who is a member of the group from the United States of America, on 18th September 2024, attended a religious movement HWPL women wing conference in Gapyung South Korea. This conference usually held annually.
Consequently, Simon Ekpa, out of his desperation on his X handle, connects such a program to mock Biafra actualization to deceive his myopic-minded followers.”
“We IPOB South Korea wish to educate the public and Biafrans on the true significance of the program in South Korea.
“Heavenly Culture World Peace Restoration of Light (HWPL) is a religious movement established in South Korea by Lee Man-hee.
This movement is considered a pseudo-religion or cult by some churches.”
“The members of this movement actively sought to replace God with its founder.
It largely centers on promoting interfaith harmony, to prevent conflicts between religions. Whereas leaders of different religions come together based on the unification of different religions’ contexts.
Lee Man-hee the founder and chairman of the movement seeks to connect the religions to be at the forefront of promoting world peace.
The movement’s 10th anniversary was attended by these religious leaders and others in Gapyuong, a remote town in South Korea”, The letter reads in part.
Moreover, according to an article published by Interfaith America on 13th July 2024, the HWPL is Founded by Lee Man Hee, a self-acclaimed Korean War veteran (according to Wikipedia),
“HWPL is a non-governmental organization promoting world peace and war cessation through interfaith dialogues, education, and advocacy. The organization has been instrumental in initiating the Declaration of Peace and Cessation of War (DPCW), focusing on bridging divides and fostering a culture of peace worldwide,” the article on Interfaith America website reads, confirming the authenticity of the IPOB South Korea letter with regards to status of the HWPL as a non-governmental organization.
The IPOB letter continued to assert that IPOB as a peaceful self determination seeking movement is verifiably operational in South Korea and maintains “sound relationship with the South Korean government”, urging Biafrans all over the world to reason and stop falling prey for lies and deception, because the Biafra struggle for freedom cannot be realized through wishy-washy propaganda and assured no one will determine the terrain or methodology through which the IPOB movement will actualize its goal.
“Anyone in IPOB who can’t reason is a liability to this struggle. You must not fall to the gimmicks of your oppressors. No man will determine for IPOB when they will be moving to the next level. And an agent provocateur is too small to trick IPOB.
In the end, we shall win. All Hail Biafra” The letter concludes.
