The spokesperson of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Emma Powerful, has condemned the killing of eight security operatives in Oriendu, Umualumaku in
“No villagers will attack policemen within their village. Therefore, no Ehime Mbano community should be invaded as a result of the attack and murder of the security officers,” Powerful said.
The statement reads, “Such reckless attacks and shedding of blood are not needed to achieve Biafra freedom in our territory. The Biafra agitation championed by IPOB since 2012 has been totally peaceful. “If, indeed, the Nigeria government is interested in fishing out the murderers of the Police officers at Ehime Mbano, they know exactly what to do and where to focus their attention.”
He maintained that Oriendu people were innocent and unsafe in the hands of criminals parading as Biafra agitators saying “Nigeria security forces must know that the villagers are innocent and are not safe in the hands of these criminals who are claiming to be fighting for Biafra freedom. “Nevertheless, we in IPOB condemn the siege and attack on the southeast by the police and military and other Nigeria security forces. Nigeria must dismantle illegal roadblocks that they have set up across the Southeast region to be extorting from motorists.
