Investigate insecurity in Southeast – IPOB urges international community

The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has called on international bodies to investigate the insecurity in the Southeastern part of Nigeria.

IPOB said the continuous insecurity in the Southeast is state-sponsored.

In a statement signed by its spokesman, Emma Powerful, IPOB insisted that it is a peaceful organization.

Powerful recalled how a report of the United Nations Development Program, UNDP, in 2016, named the Southeast as the most secure geopolitical zone in Nigeria.

According to the statement: “The global family and movement of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) ably led by our amiable leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, calls on the International Intelligence Community, the British government, and the Nigeria government to investigate the continuous insecurity in the Biafra Land. IPOB maintains that insecurity in Biafra Land is Nigeria State-sponsored.

“According to the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) report of 2016, the South East region was named the most humanly secure geopolitical zone in Nigeria. South East or Biafra has been the epicentre for IPOB peaceful rallies in Nigeria since 2010. IPOB has never recorded any form of violence in all the crowded, peaceful rallies we have held all over the world.

“However, when the ethnic bigot Muhammadu Buhari and his Fulani cabal took over the Nigerian government in 2016, they applied several brutal forces to stop IPOB’s peaceful rallies for Biafra’s self-determination. In the process, a lot of IPOB members were murdered in cold blood during peaceful rallies by the murderous Nigeria Security Forces.

“Until today, many abducted IPOB members who were forcefully disappeared have not been found. Some IPOB members were permanently deformed by bullets, injuries, acid, and chemicals and torture by the notorious Nigerian Security Forces.
