The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) on Monday, September 18 said no amount of intimidation would deter it from fighting for an independent Biafra nation.
It therefore described the proscription of the group by the South-East governors as well as its declaration as a terrorist organisation by the Defence Headquarters as a nullity.
IPOB however said only a referendum to determine a sovereign state of Biafra would assuage its demands.
In a IPOB’s Media and Publicity Secretary, Emma Powerful, said in statement made available to newsmen in Awka, Anambra State on Monday that it wondered why herdsmen that had several times wreaked havoc in different parts of the country had not been declared a terrorist organization and its group which is a peaceful organization would.
IPOB therefore accused the Federal Government of hatching a secret agenda to exterminate the Igbo race. It said the Abia State Commissioner of Police who was playing a rehashed script is the person being used for that purpose.
Said IPOB: “We the family of Indigenous People of Biafra and its leadership worldwide under the command and leadership of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu wish to place on record that the newly appointed Commissioner of Police posted to Abia State is trying very hard to please his Northern Arewa masters…
“Our leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu has made it abundantly clear to all and sundry that he is NOT going on exile as a result of these childish threats from Hausa Fulani dominated Nigeria Government.
“IPOB family members worldwide under the command and leadership of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu remain nonviolent, irrespective of the well documented brutal killings of unarmed peaceful demonstrators, abductions, torture, illegal detentions and summary executions of detainees by the Hausa Fulani Islamic run Nigeria Police and Army.
“IPOB remains impregnable and no man born of a woman can stop the agitation for Biafra restoration. Until the Hausa Fulani Islamic Nigeria Government fix a date for referendum to settle the issue of Biafra in a civilized and democratic manner, this raging agitation led by Mazi Nnamdi Kanu will continue.
“With the situation on ground today concerning Biafra freedom, we pity the APC Party and Nigerian Government led by Major General Muhammadu Buhari for choosing the uncivilized path of brute force and intimidation as opposed to referendum.
“We urge every Biafran, no matter where you are, to remain resolute and strong because Biafra is tantalizingly closer than we expect. It is crystal clear that IPOB led by Mazi Nnamdi Kanu is ordained by (Chukwu Okike Abiama) God Almighty which no man can stop. We are winning this battle.
“Major General Muhammadu Buhari and his APC band of thugs should be the ones hiding from IPOB not us from them. It is unfortunate that some people in Arewa North do not know who Mazi Nnamdi Kanu is hence they keep coming up with laughable fabrications designed to demystify our leader, to no avail.
“Mazi Nnamdi Kanu they privately acknowledge, knows no fear and is undeterred by side rantings of the vocal parasitic few, who cannot imagine their existence without crude oil money coming from Biafraland.
“This wicked lie and malicious fabrication is the work of the enemies of Biafra, who enjoy their perfect slave status and will remain servants to Arewa North all their lives.”
Reiterating that he will not embark on an exile following threats by the federal government, Kanu also said that the IPOB is the most vibrant and intelligent mass movement in the world today, hence cannot be
intimidated by the agents of the
