The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), said there is
no going back on the sit-at-home order it declared on May 30, for Biafra Day
celebration in remembrance of fallen
heroes of Biafra who died during the civil
war of 1967 and 1970.
The group alerted Biafrans, friends and lovers of
Biafra freedom about the strategies mapped out by the Federal Government and
security agencies to deal with the people of Biafra during the remembrance day
celebration.
A statement by the Media and Publicity Secretary of
IPOB, Mr. Emma Powerful warned Biafrans to stay at home on that day to avoid
security operatives from killing innocent members of the public or IPOB
members.
“According to IPOB intelligence unit, there are series
of meetings going on between security agencies and saboteurs in our midst who
wish to sabotage the remembrance day celebration of our fallen heroes and
heroines scheduled to hold on May 30.
“Nevertheless, we are calling on every Biafran to stay
at home on that day to avoid security operatives from killing innocent members.
“We all are aware that IPOB, under the leadership of
Nnamdi Kanu doesn’t say something and renege, therefore, we must remember and
honour our fallen heroes and heroines
who died for us to live.
“Biafra liberation movement, under the leadership
of Kanu is a divine project which no
man, born of a woman can stop unless God Almighty (Chukwu Okike Abiama) says
so.
“This May 30, remembrance day and sit-at-home order
will serve as a notice to the world, Nigerians, Federal Government and security
agencies, that this set of Biafra generation under the banner of IPOB led by
Kanu means business. They are a different set of people who cannot relent in
the pursuit for the liberation of our dear nation, Biafra.
“In line with this, we expect every Biafra citizen, both home and abroad to endeavour to
honour our soldiers who died on battle field, children who were starved to
death and other foreigners who laid
their lives during the genocidal war and killings against the people of Biafra
between 1967 and 1970. We must remember and honour them, no going back.
“With this, every IPOB member in Biafraland must
travel to his or her native community to enlighten the people in our villages
to observe the sit-at-home order issued by IPOB and our supreme leader, Kanu.
Also, those in diaspora must inform their people in Biafra land to sit-at- home
on that fateful day to avoid regrets.
“However, Biafrans and IPOB members outside Biafra
land, both those in diaspora must take to the streets in the country of their
respective residents in honour and remembrance of Biafrans that died during the
war of genocide between 1967 and 1970.
They must also let the governments of the countries of their respective
residents to be aware of our plight in Nigeria since 1945 till date.
“Furthermore, we must use town criers in all the
villages and streets in Biafra land, the priests, pastors, reverend fathers are
also expected to announce to their members in their different churches to stay
at home on that day…”
in honour and remembrance of our falling heroes and
heroines who laid down their lives for us to be alive in this contraption
called Nigeria and to be at alert because the Security agencies are out again
to kill our people on that particular day, we advise you to stay in your
respective homes nothing will happen” Powerful stated.
