IPOB PRESS RELEASE
26/10/2024

We the great and noble family of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) led by the indomitable leader Mazi Nnamdi Okwuchukwu Kanu wish to bring the latest pathetic attempt, by Nigeria Army in a long line of previous wretched attempts by the Nigerian Army to influence the justices in the upcoming case of our leader Mazi Nnamdi KANU, the illegal proscription of IPOB, will surely fail as all previous attempts did. Not content with using gullible media houses under their payroll to demonise IPOB, they have now gone one step further in the voyage of ridiculousness by stating that they arrested the “founding father of IPOB” whom IPOB did not know. The question any sensible person should ask is where on earth is the founding mother of IPOB? What sort of officer and gentleman will agree to be trotted out in front of cameras and microphones to be making a mockery of the image of their Nigerian army. No class, no honour, no dignity.

The history of how IPOB was founded is a matter of public knowledge that predates these childish antics by the media department of the Nigerian Army. Are the people handling Nigerian Army telling us they are not aware that Mazi Nnamdi Kanu is the founder and leader of IPOB before they invaded his house to kill him in on October 14, 2017? Is the army ignorant of the leading count in the unlawful charges levelled against Mazi Nnamdi Kanu to the effect that he is the founder and leader of IPOB?

Anytime there is a court case involving Mazi Nnamdi Kanu or IPOB, these same shameless characters from the army will conduct their sham press conference to pressure the justices scheduled to hear the matter to either adjourn the case or deliver biased judgement against Mazi Nnamdi Okwu Kanu and IPOB. This nonsense has to stop and the public are hereby urged to disregard such blatant and shameless propaganda. Next time they should tell us who the founding mother of IPOB is.
