For Biafra To Succeed, Godfatherism And Gangsterism Must Be Expelled

 For Biafra To Succeed, God-fatherism And Gang-sterism Must Be Expelled 


The struggle for Biafra is a movement fueled by the collective aspirations of a people long subjected to oppression, marginalization, and systematic erasure. It is a sacred mission that demands unity, transparency, and accountability. Yet, like termites gnawing at the root of a mighty iroko tree, the twin evils of gangsterism and godfatherism have emerged as threats capable of undermining the very foundation of this struggle.  


In recent times, a dangerous precedent has reared its ugly head and it is the tendency for decisions regarding Biafra to be made unilaterally or influenced by a few, often bypassing the collective interests of the Biafran people or undermining its ordained leadership authority. This is not only a betrayal of the struggle but a violation of the guiding principles that the movement stands for.  


Gangsterism, in this context, is the imposition of personal or factional interests on a movement meant to serve millions. It is a trait that encourages intimidation, deceit, and manipulation, all in the name of preserving power or influence. Such behavior erodes trust, weakens solidarity, and creates an environment where loyalty to the cause is replaced by allegiance to individuals or cliques.  


The Biafra struggle cannot afford to be hijacked by gangster-like tactics. This movement is too important, too sacred, to be reduced to a game of power plays and personal vendettas. Biafra represents hope, freedom, and justice for an entire people. Allowing gangsterism to fester is akin to poisoning the well from which we all must drink.  


Equally dangerous is the rise of godfatherism a system where a few self-appointed "kingmakers" wield disproportionate influence over decisions that should represent the collective will of the people. Godfatherism is the antithesis of democracy and while the IPOB movement currently does not wholly run on democratic principles, it however has an impeccable decentralized, institutionalized leadership thus incompromisable. 


However, in the Biafra struggle  godfatherism manifests in the form of secret dealings, unilateral decisions, and the elevation of individuals above the collective. This behavior not only alienates supporters but also provides ammunition to the oppressors who seek to discredit and weaken the movement.  


The strength of the Biafra struggle lies in its collective nature. Decisions affecting millions of Biafrans must be made by a body that genuinely represents the collective interests of the people. This body, whether it is the Directorate of State (DOS) or another structure, must operate with transparency, accountability, and a commitment to the principles of the struggle.  


No individual or group of individuals should have the power to impose decisions on the movement. This is not a personal estate, nor is it a platform for self-enrichment or political maneuvering. The Biafra struggle belongs to the people, and their voices must guide its direction.  


It is time to address the root causes of gangsterism and godfatherism within the struggle. IPOB must implement strict measures to ensure accountability and prevent the concentration of power in the hands of a few. This includes institutionalizing decision-making processes to ensure inclusivity, promoting transparency in all dealings, and encouraging the active participation of all Biafrans in the movement.  


History has shown that movements that allow internal corruption, favoritism, and autocracy to flourish are doomed to fail. The Biafra struggle cannot afford to repeat the mistakes of the past. This is a defining moment—an opportunity to reaffirm the principles that have kept the movement alive despite decades of persecution and sabotage.  


To those who seek to exploit the struggle for personal gain, let it be known that the Biafra struggle and the IPOB movement is bigger than any individual. As the Igbo adage goes, “Eze onye agwanam ga-ama ikpe ọnụ n'ala" —a king who refuses counsel will end up disgraced. Saboteurs, beware: your actions will not go unnoticed, nor will they be forgiven by the people whose dreams you aim to jeopardize.  


The Biafra struggle is a beacon of hope for millions. It is a reminder that even in the face of adversity, a people united can achieve the impossible. To preserve this spirit, we must rid the movement of gangsterism and godfatherism. And protect the institutionalized authority of the IPOB movement, defend its founding and guiding principles without prejudice or sentiments. 


Let us remember that the fight for Biafra is not just about territory or politics—it is about the restoration of our cultural value systems which simplifies that no man can take the people for ride and the Biafra people followership is not inspired by asslicking rather respect and regard for substantial sacrifice towards the protection of the people's interests. The love and followership of Ndigbo towards any individual stems from the above mentioned. 


The IPOB Leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu established IPOB movement and has worked tirelessly and paid the ultimate price to cement its idealogy but most importantly the institution. Knowing fully well that the survival of the struggle depends on these two things: the idealogy and the institution that would strengthen, nourish and protect it. Not individuals whom are expendable. 


On this premises, must we anchor that the restoration of this highly sorted "Biafra Republic" – emphasis on this -  depends on the ability of the people not necessarily those in leadership but the ordinary masses and lovers of freedom to defend the established institutions both from external attacks and internal undermination. 


Biafra is a sacred mission, and it demands nothing less than our utmost integrity, unity, and dedication. Together, we shall overcome.

The Tenacity of IPOB: A Lesson in Discipline Amidst a Sea of Deceit

  The Tenacity of IPOB: A Lesson in Discipline Amidst a Sea of Deceit  


There’s a certain beauty in watching a well-oiled machine run flawlessly, even when its driver is unjustly detained. Such is the story of IPOB, a movement that has mastered the art of navigating storms without losing direction. In the absence of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, IPOB has continued to hold its structure firm, unshaken by the destructive ploys of the Nigerian state. This is a tale worth telling, especially when compared to the violent theatrics of Simon Ekpa's faction a group seemingly born to disgrace every principle of struggle and humanity.

  

Despite Mazi Nnamdi Kanu's prolonged and unjust detention, IPOB has demonstrated resilience that even their detractors secretly admire. They have skillfully resisted the Nigerian government’s attempts to provoke them into violence a trap laid with the precision of a spider weaving its web. Instead of succumbing, IPOB has stuck to its ethos of non-violence, gaining respect and recognition across the globe.  


Unlike their violent counterparts, IPOB’s non-violent approach has earned its members the liberty to operate freely in virtually every corner of the world. Take Finland, for instance a land of law, order, and snowy neutrality. IPOB was legally registered, it's members freely gather, strategize, and promote their cause without fear of persecution. In contrast, Simon Ekpa’s group cannot even hold a public meeting in the same Finland, where their leader languishes in prison. Yes, the self-styled “autopilot” was grounded for violent agitation a charge he has never denied.  


Let’s pause for a moment to appreciate the irony of Simon Ekpa’s predicament. Here is a man who styled himself as the Moses of Biafra, yet he managed to lead his followers straight into the Red Sea of global disgrace. Ekpa’s violent approach has alienated even his host country, Finland a nation that prides itself on granting asylum to the oppressed. His incarceration is a vivid reminder that while the world tolerates dissent, it has no patience for chaos masquerading as revolution.  


It’s almost laughable how Ekpa’s followers continue to drum support for a man who has single-handedly tarnished the image of Biafra. If Ekpa truly had the wisdom of leadership, would he not have mastered the delicate art of advancing a cause without turning it into a circus of violence? While IPOB seeks dialogue and diplomacy, Ekpa’s faction revels in destruction, leaving a trail of burnt markets and shattered lives.  


The Nigeria government’s attempts to discredit IPOB would be comical if they weren’t so tragic. From labeling the movement as terrorists to infiltrating it with agents provocateurs, the state has thrown every dirty trick in the book at IPOB. Yet, like a phoenix, IPOB rises each time, stronger and more focused.  


Their secret? Wisdom. IPOB has understood that the battle for Biafra is not just a physical one but a global war of narratives. While Simon Ekpa’s faction feeds the Nigerian government’s propaganda machine with images of chaos, IPOB counters with a message of peace, justice, and self-determination.  


In the end, the contrast between IPOB and Simon Ekpa’s faction boils down to discipline and vision. IPOB has proven that a struggle rooted in wisdom and non-violence can withstand even the fiercest storms. Simon Ekpa, on the other hand, serves as a cautionary tale for those who mistake chaos for revolution.  


Let it be known that while IPOB continues to win hearts and minds across the globe, Ekpa’s faction remains a footnote in the annals of failed agitators. Perhaps the greatest irony is that while Mazi Nnamdi Kanu remains unjustly detained, his vision has set IPOB free—free to operate, free to dream, and free to march toward the dawn of Biafra.  


As for Simon Ekpa and his violent band, they are free too—free to stew in the consequences of their actions, free to reflect on the wisdom of non-violence, and, of course, free to remain behind bars in Finland. Some freedom, after all, are self-inflicted.

Is The Finnish Government Involved In The Conspiracy Of Terrorism Ongoing In Biafraland

 Is The Finnish Government Involved In The Conspiracy Of Terrorism Ongoing In Biafraland 


The once peaceful Eastern Nigeria is now being systematically targeted to become a zone where tears fall like shadows on crumbling streets, where safety's promise is a hollow beat.

The government's hand, meant to shield and protect, now fuels the flames that our futures inspect. 


The Nigerian government extraordinary rendition’s dark deed against the leader of the Indigenous People Of Biafra, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, exposes the Western government's dual creed—justice in words, tyranny in deeds. 


The West where Finland belongs, has been the abode of a Nigerian government sponsored agent provocateur, whose acts of deceptions ever since the illegal rendition of Kanu to Nigeria took flesh, had become a cancer, attempting to erode the fabrics and prospects of the pacifist and self-determination agitation and campaigns championed by the IPOB movement, turning their legitimate grievances into sensationalized spectacle to the point that the line between genuine activism and manufactured mayhem is being blurred especially to passive/non conscious minds, leaving well-intentioned individuals vulnerable to exploitation. 


Simon Ekpa, as a Finnish resident underscores his amenable bound to the Finnish Constitutions and Laws. 

And is by law, has no immunity whatsoever from prosecution by the Finnish government, when a clear evident corroboration of his criminal and terror conduct exists in the public domains. He was arrested sometimes by the Finnish authorities in early 2023 on charges related to his terrorism in Eastern Nigeria but was subsequently discharged and his casefile suspended indefinitely. 


Raising a serious question about the involvement of the Finnish government in connivance with the Nigerian government to permit his reign and projection of terror from their soil. According to recent findings, trade turnout between Finland-Nigeria has skyrocketed since 2022, reaching a whopping of 47% in the past from an all-time low figure less than 10% in yester years. 


The Finland based agent provocateur had been said to be appointed by the IPOB leader, to join in broadcasting and awareness creation for Biafra freedom through the Radio Biafra London platform, after his tragic ordeal and extraordinary rendition from Kenya, but got laid off after he refused to cooperate with the required vetting and induction protocols instituted within IPOB and Radio Biafra. 


His criminal and sinister tendencies was spotted by the IPOB Leadership from the onset and as such fiercely resisted. He was never allowed near the IPOB Leadership, the radio Biafra platform or even the closest IPOB family in his country of residence, Finland. 


Nevertheless, he whom the IPOB leader intended to take in a brother's guiding hand, now wields a destructive brand of terror against the people whose struggle and interests serve as the locomotive lubricant fueling the Biafra agitation. No noble cause in sight, Only darkness, endless reign of destruction. A typical disposition and characteristic of an agent provocateur. 


Like Cain's dark legacy, he rose against his brothers, unprovoked.

He employed several techniques in other to sway his agenda into the very formidable IPOB movement, but failed miserably. 


He began to call for unprepared arms struggle which is contrary to the guided approach of the Indigenous People Of Biafra (IPOB). His call and hit-and-run cowardly attacks on Nigeria military, police and other sister security formations in Biafraland only quadrupled their presence there, leaving the innocent citizens who are already being exploited for years by the aforementioned, to bear the brunt. 


The Biafra restoration movement fostered by the IPOB family, worldwide, is rooted in the discipline and principles of peaceful insistence on demanding for a United Nation supervised referendum for the Biafran people. 


Judging from the peaceful rallies, radio broadcasts and online engagements from the members of IPOB, demanding for their right to self-determination, on no account had they resorted to violence against the Nigerian State, nor its own people in the South East Nigeria having the fore understanding that one cannot kill and suppress the same people they’re fighting to defend. 


Having the testimonial and prognostic afflictions of the Fulani herders (Miyetti Allah), whose modus operandi has been to kill, maim, rape, abduct and destroy the hard-earned works of farmers in/across Nigeria especially in Biafraland, IPOB led by Mazi Nnamdi Kanu launched a security outfit, Eastern Security Network (ESN) across the South East, tasked with protecting and repelling the marauding Fulani elements within its Bushes. 


Under the very directive of the IPOB leadership, they had stayed only and true to this primary assignment - within the bushes of the South East region, working vigorously as a vigilante group, in protection of their own people. 


Ekpa claimed to have taken control of ESN. But he had lied— all to derail the very essence of IPOB’s heroic efforts in the South East. 


IPOB had made it compendiously clear on several occasions through press statements that Mr. Ekpa does not belong to IPOB. He has no membership recognition in the IPOB organization, and as such has no right to speak on behalf of IPOB. His actions cannot be attributed to the IPOB movement. 


Its presence in over 150 countries of the world, IPOB is duly recognized and respected to be the representatives championing the Biafra struggle for self-determination. 


What whispered secrets corrupted the code of comprehension, to the effect that after the indictment of Mr. Ekpa by the Finnish Central Criminal Police for his numerous incitements and sponsorship of terrorism in Eastern Nigeria, was released and the case with-held since the February of 2023? Even Finnish investigative journalists came for a fact-finding mission to ascertain the truth about his destructive activities. They confirmed the authenticity of the crimes being committed from their soil 


A pregnant woman was murdered, and her innocent premature fetus poured on the floors, Laborers were chased from the places of work, students tortured and vehicles burnt under the very inhumane directive of Mr. Ekpa, carried out by his contracted hoodlums all in the name of enforcing a non-existent Sit-At-Home order. 


Videos has been uploaded and circulating on the internet, several petitions written, and rallies done in various forms to convey the message of grievances to the Finnish government, now led by @alexstubb, to invoke your criminal code of conducts on the person of Ekpa. 


The Nigerian government has paid deaf ears to cries of the people of the East, across streets and towns, why is the Finnish government harbouring a known criminal and a terrorist within their borders? 


This has come to the forefront of human understanding, that the Finnish government is complicit in the predicaments of the Eastern people, inflicted by Ekpa. They have been induced with juicy deals by the Nigerian state to turn a blind eye on the destruction in the South-East. Biafrans must come to this reality and collectively unite to combat this global conspiracy against us, and our region. Deflecting attention and false accusations will not solve any problem. Objective analysis and decisive actions is required. And all sincere hands must be on deck. A stitch in time saves nine.

DETAILS: Susie Wiles Cooperation With IPOB Through Mercury Firm Years Ago And Current Anticipations

DETAILS: Susie Wiles Cooperation With IPOB Through Mercury Firm Years Ago And Current Anticipations



It has been revealed that Mrs Susie Wiles, US president-elect Donald Trump's newly appointed Chief of Staff, worked with the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) movement in 2019 through her lobbying firm. This news comes on the heels of Trump's victory in the 2024 presidential election, where Wiles played a crucial role as his campaign manager. 


According to reports, Wiles' firm, Mercury Public Affairs, was hired by IPOB in 2019 to lobby the US Congress and State Department on promoting human rights and democracy in Nigeria. The contract, valued at $85,000 per month, aimed at influencing US foreign policy positively towards the Biafran cause for self-determination. Although the firm only disclosed $254,000 in payments to the US Department of Justice in 2020, the partnership underscores Wiles' involvement with IPOB especially in its concerted effort to earn popularity and support in the US government at the time. 


Wiles' experience in politics and diplomacy spans decades, having worked on Ronald Reagan's 1980 campaign and Donald Trump's 2016 and 2020 campaigns. Her appointment as Trump's Chief of Staff marks a historic milestone, as she will be the first woman to hold the position. 


Wiles' Lobbying Firm and IPOB 


•⁠  ⁠Mercury Public Affairs: Wiles co-chairs lobbying firm, has represented various clients, including tobacco company Swisher International and coal company Alliance Resource Partners. 


•⁠  ⁠IPOB Contract: The firm's engagement with IPOB began in October 2019, focusing on promoting human rights and democracy in Nigeria through the lobbying pressure to culminate intervention by US administration. 


•⁠  ⁠Payment Disclosure: Mercury Public Affairs disclosed $254,000 in payments to the US Department of Justice in 2020. 


Apparently, the wife of the currently incarcerated IPOB leader, Uchechi Okwu Kanu commented on the trending development on her official X platform (@Okwukkanu). 


“As a famous actor once said in a blockbuster movie, "What we do in life echoes in eternity." Only if they knew how far #IPOB had gone before the kidnapping of my husband. Noise making content creation and effective freedom fighting are not, and can never be the same. Those who did not know before now know. #IPOB is more than you can imagine.” 


Following Trump’s landslide election victory on November 5th 2024, the IPOB Directorate Of States (DOS) alongside other world leaders, reputable institutions sent their congratulatory message to the US President-elect . The statement applauded Mr. Trump for his resilient fighting spirit, which it described as "exemplary and worthy of emulation." 


The implications of Wiles' firm cooperation with IPOB was significant, even as it appears that the contract with the firm has gone into suspense in recent years. The Buhari's administration which was known for its draconian and brutal human rights abuses was kept on its toes by the impact of services of the Mercury firm until the succession of the democratic party in 2020. 


Nevertheless, with the recent Trump's victory and its potential impact. As Trump's Chief of Staff, Mrs Wiles could play a crucial role in shaping US policy in addressing the plethora of human rights abuses and attitudinal deviltry perpetrated by the Nigerian political class against citizens and self determination activists in Nigeria. 


Most importantly, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu the IPOB Leader whom was kidnapped, tortured and extraordinarily renditioned from Kenya in 2021 and has been incarcerated in Nigeria since then, against a number of consecutive court judgments ordering his unconditional release and adequate compensation for violation of his fundamental human rights.


Moreover, the innocent Pro-Biafra activists whom for celebrating Trump’s electoral victory back in January 2017 in a peaceful solidarity protest themed "Biafrans Solidarity for Trump", fell victim of Nigeria Security forces extrajudicial killings and abduction, many of them still illegally detained indefinitely in Nigeria without arraignment in court. 


These innocent young men are still hopeful that the new incoming Trump administration in which Wiles is the newly appointed Chief of Staff, would speak for them by prevailing on the Nigerian government to release them or charge them to prove their guilt for exercising constitutional rights to peaceful assembly which is also guaranteed by international law.

Continued Illegal Detention of Nnamdi Kanu, An act of Ethnic Bias----Kenneth Okonkwo

 Continued Illegal Detention of Nnamdi Kanu, An act of Ethnic Bias----Kenneth Okonkwo



Over the course of time, the continuous illegal detention of the IPOB leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, by the Nigerian authorities had plunged the South East region into a state of monumental chaos.

These chaos, evidently sponsored by the same government. 


A human rights lawyer, and Nigerian politician, Kenneth Okonkwo, decorously demonstrated his concern over the outlawed inhumane treatment being meted on the IPOB leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, pointing at his continued detention as an act of “ethnic bias”.


While speaking on Arise News, he emphasized on the state’s pardon on the popular Yoruba Nation agitator, Sunday Igboho, as well as the internationally outlawed terror group, Boko Haram members, whose ideology stands against the Western or a secular society. They had even been reconciled, resuscitated and  re-assimilated into the society, the Nigerian army and police, he said.


Stretching on the grounds of his release, he gave some recommended options on how Kanu could be released, sighting risks of Nigeria’s dilapidated reputation on the course of illegally detaining him.


The Nigerian government, after recognizing the plights of Kanu by 2015, had subjected him to the same fate of illegal detention. 

Kanu had faced unlawful trials and has endured several tortures from the Nigerian Secret Security Service (SSS).


The case of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu has been referred to as a ‘political persecution’.

Kenneth Okonkwo recounted the fore long several court rulings that had ordered the unconditional release of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.

The appellate courts has ruled that all 15 baseless count charges against Kanu were quashed, Nnamdi Kanu discharged and acquitted. 


Nigerian government has violated its own laws, and disobeyed its own court orders, just to persecute Nnamdi Kanu.


Mazi Nnamdi Kanu had been sighted as a political prisoner and a “prisoner of conscience”, as the United Nations group on arbitrary detention had released statements in 2022, demanding his unconditional release.


He is undergoing persecution, not prosecution. 

And his popularity and heroic reputation grows taller, as each of his days languishes in the Nigerian DSS dungeon. 


Kenneth Okonkwo stated that the more Kanu is being detained illegally, the more he gains power and influence. 


To the Old Easterners of Nigeria, Kanu is the hope of the common man. He represents the collective marginalized and oppressed Biafra people.


A British citizen, abandoned by the British government to languish in prison for committing no crime known to law.


His only crime is demanding for the self-determination of his people, which is contained in the United Nations’ Charter of Fundamental Human Rights.


International communities are obliged to intervene in the case of Kanu, and preserve the inalienable human rights to freedom and self-determination.

It is not a crime for one to determine his fate of nationhood, and the world must stand up to upholding this right.


As Martin Luther King says, “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere”.

The rights of Kanu and all the persecuted Biafra people must be protected.

Mazi Nnamdi Kanu's Detention And The Hardship In Nigeria

Mazi Nnamdi Kanu IPOB leader




Mazi Nnamdi Kanu's Detention And The Hardship In Nigeria 


By Eluwa Chidiebere Chinazu | Biafra Writers

October 27, 2024

Before the illegal detention of the Biafran leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, on 27th June, 2021, many Nigerians harbored the belief that the Biafran leader was in all facets a great impediment to Nigeria's growth. Kanu was blamed for Nigeria's woes and hated by those who upheld and nurtured the faith of a workable Nigeria - a faith that many see as mirage through Kanu's brilliant expositions on Radio Biafra. 

Upon Kanu's arrest, Malam Garba Shehu, Senior Special Assistant to the then President Buhari, accused Kanu of inflicting hardship on Nigerians. With this statement from Garba Shehu, Nigerians were in high spirits, hoping for the best since the bad egg is in detention. Unfortunately, they got the worst after arresting their supposed "Mr. Hardship" called Nnamdi Kanu.

From the religious view, Nigeria is currently nothing less than a curse. In comity of nations, Nigeria is a perfect example of a failed state. People no longer canvas for infrastructural developments, rather their main problem is food. 

To say that Nigeria is bereaved of success is not exaggeration. Nigeria lacks the gumption to salvage the economic meltdown that has befallen it. The depth of Nigeria's debt causes goose bumps to her citizens. Nigeria is already on her knees.

Hunger has really humbled Nigerians. The wise words of Nnamdi Kanu are rapidly coming to fruition. It was the devastated situation of Somalia that gave rise to the phrase "failed state" in 1991, now that there is a country worse than the then Somalia, what phrase do we coin from Nigeria deplorable situation.

Why IPOB/ESN Is Being Targeted By The Nigerian Army And Their Man-Proxy In Finland

 Why IPOB/ESN Is Being Targeted By The Nigerian Army And Their Man-Proxy In Finland



The hassle with which Nigerian Army and its cooperative conventional media(s) rush to pin on the Indigenous People Of Biafra movement and the Eastern Security Network, every crime perpetrated by Ekpa and his criminal elements in Southeast, even when Ekpa openly claims responsibility of these crimes via his official verified X handle, does not surprise any conscious fellow and we believe it should not surprise anyone either. Unless, one is ignorant of the game being played by the Nigerian government and its military. 


Over the past 3 years, Simon Ekpa have claimed to have attacked Nigerian military checkpoints in different occasions and locations across southeast and claimed responsibility of them on several intervals during his live broadcasts. 


But you know what? The Nigerian army and media have refused till date to attribute these crimes to him and his goons squarely. Instead they continued to pin them on IPOB/ESN. Irrespective of how IPOB and other independent, investigative sources on the ground such as reports from the human rights organizations , Intersociety group has evidently established that IPOB/ESN has no hands in the insecurity or attacks on the Nigeria military formations in the South-East. 


It is popularly said that to kill an innocent dog, it must be given a bad name to justify its slaughter. This is what both Ekpa and his Nigerian sponsors are doing. The Nigerian government have tried in so many ways to present IPOB as a violent movement before the international community but it has failed precipitously over and over again. 


They could not match IPOB versatility and outreach in the international community. IPOB has continued explain to the global audience with empirical evidence about her non violence status, approach and dispositions towards Biafra self-determination quest and goal. 


Before the Nigerian government arrives at any international office, country as the case maybe, to submit these blackmailing reports against IPOB or to induce benign officials there to mainstream their spurious narratives, IPOB would have already submitted a comprehensive unbiased report of the corrupt activities, crimes and lies of Nigerian government to these offices, and further poising them to go on to conduct their own investigations via their own assets on the ground, if any. 


Obviously, Nigeria have bribed and bought over few officials of some reputable international organizations to help them in their campaign of designating IPOB as a violent organization globally but it all ended up without any headway being made as their was no viable pretext or grounds for such, even under the laws of these respective countries or international law. 


We must recall the National Institute For Peace In USA, and Tony Blair Institute whom  passively highlighted or rather aimed at projecting IPOB as a violent movement in 2022 and this was inputed in the annual global terrorism index which the contributed to. This was the handiwork of the Nigerian government and of course certain elements within the US and United Kingdom governments. 


Though, they retracted their claims after they could not prove with concrete evidence that IPOB was guilty as charged, judging from their own biased reports. IPOB on the other hand threatened legal actions if they fail to recluse IPOB from the global terrorism list. 


They have tried everything and exhausted their plans to break the IPOB global family,  her finances, her illegal incarcerated Leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, or even lure the ESN tasked to confront Fulani terrorists in Biafraland into an unprepared war with the Nigerian armed forces, but to no avail. 


Mazi Nnamdi Kanu has made a mess of the Nigerian government even in their own courts, the IPOB family survived the storm and is waxing strong globally. The ESN as seen and acknowledged by all and sundry – including those in the military circles – continues to enhance its tactical capabilities even amidst provocations to lure or distract them from their primary assignment of wading off Fulani terrorists from Biafra forests or bushes. 


So the only viable card left to hold on to, is by keeping the agent provocateur alive and kicking as he would serve as the odds to apparently keep IPOB on their toes and on the defensive, while he wrecks havoc that would compel the members of the Biafran public to develop animosity towards the Biafra struggle due to the criminality and violence it has seemingly brought on them. 


Besides, should IPOB succeed in achieving Biafra restoration sooner or later, there will always be a need for the imperialists or enemy close neighbors to sponsor a 'pseudo opposition', that would oppose the Biafra Republic and its eventual leadership. This is why Mr Ekpa is untouchable and even the Finnish Government who arrested him in early 2023 for serious crimes bordering fraud etc, all of a sudden stood down and his casefile was closed indefinitely till this moment. 


So anytime you see Nigerian Army making accusations in their press statement against IPOB/ESN, be assured that Ekpa and his goons have carried out another scripted operation to keep the propaganda and blackmail momentum level high and afloat. 


To set the record straight, this latest attack on soldiers in Mbanọ is a false flag operation to blackmail IPOB as usual. In as much as IPOB and the entire Igbo nation opposes the sinister plot of importing refugees from the north to the East. The violence in Ehime Mbanọ is a false flag operation to blackmail IPOB and to keep the insecurity in Imo state, spiking and escalating. IPOB did not claim responsibility for the burning of the site chosen to host these northern refugees nor the house of Senator Ibezim. Mr Ekpa did and he is not an IPOB member or of ESN. 


Had these structures not being torched. The result would still be the same, there would be no refugees camp in the South-East. The people in cooperation with IPOB would have made sure of it. And the ongoing ensuing violence, military bombardment and ransacking in Ehime Mbanọ would not be in the picture as has sadly obtained now. 


The ultimate aim is to set IPOB against the people or as being responsible for the violence just as obtained in the Aba 30th May Biafra Fallen heroes remembrance day incident. To breach the trust, adherence and listenership Biafrans have for the directives of the IPOB movement. Knowing fully well that they would not betray nor jeopardize their interests and overall well-being. 


Thus, we will continue to debunk and expose their lies, and educate our people to know and understand who is their enemies and how they operate to make our region unsafe for us and why their must be a concerted effort to resist and wade off their machinations against us as a people.
