Indigenous People of Biafra
(IPOB) has claimed responsibility for Nigeria’s exclusion from the forthcoming
US-Africa summit.
IPOB said Nigeria’s
reputation has been left in tatters following President Muhammadu Buhari’s
proscription of its activities.
A statement sent to DAILY
POST by the IPOB’s spokesman, Comrade Emma Powerful, on Wednesday, also claimed
that Igbos living in the United States of America and Canada are fully
determined in the pursuit of Biafra independence.
He said, “The reputation of
Nigeria has been left in tatters as the world has shown that terrorism tag
against IPOB is meaningless foolish.
“Nigeria has been
thoroughly disgraced by IPOB culminating in the exclusion of Jubril Al-Sudani
from the forthcoming US-Africa Summit.
“Regardless of the
intimidation, arrest, killings and massacre orchestrated and designed to
humiliate Biafrans by the Fulani dictators running Nigeria government and her
security agencies, we continue to march relentlessly to our preordained
destination of Biafra freedom.
“Our leaders have so far
successfully mobilised and united Biafrans living in North America under one
common purpose. He will continue to hold town hall meetings and private
consultations in the coming weeks.
“Biafrans living in the
United States of America and Canada have proven that our people are fully
determined, united and committed to the pursuit of Biafra independence as
undisputedly championed by IPOB.
“We are urging Biafrans
both home and in the diaspora to continue to provide strong support and
security for our leader during these times.”
