IPOB PRESS RELEASE:
NIGERIA GOVERNMENT MUST STOP THE GENOCIDE AGAINST BIAFRANS AND SHOW RESPECT FOR SANCTITY OF HUMAN
LIFE
The massacre,
the maiming and forceful displacement of
unarmed peaceful people of Biafra on a day we remember the atrocious genocide of the same government is utterly unthinkable, absurd. General Buhari has
indeed proven to be an undemocratic hiding under the cloak of democracy to
perpetuate ponderous evil deeds on ordinary
people. The account of what took place across the Biafra land is condemnable by
any average person conscientious person.
It is expedient and expressly essential for the Office
of the Directorate of State, Indigenous People of Biafra, to state
categorically that the acts so meted out on our kiths and kin are nothing short
of an apparently premeditated upscale of provocation and unwarranted
extra-judiciary killings of our people – men and women, young as well as the
old. Even sparing the pregnant of all this human inhumanity was not the case.
The world needs to take note of the
consistently unprofessional conduct of Gen. Mohammadu Buhari and his cohorts
especially in the wrong
ethnically-oriented killings of our people. In their usual manner and to show
how devious these people are, once they
commit these outrageous and sinister acts, they are quick to denials while
working clandestinely to clean up their tracks, traces and substantial evidence that attest to their less than noble
act.
They do not stop
at that; they go all out to fabricate all
manner of allegations and accuse the Indigenous People of Biafra of being
“violent and up in arms”. Their deed certainly cannot be justified, and it leaves many unanswered questions. In fact, all the
security personnel involved in this yet genocide will reap back in their coin
in no distant time. It is in tandem with both the law of nature and nature of
human law because there are consequences for such an unprovoked and atrocious
genocide.
Time will surely
tell as all of you will not go unpunished or jump bail. Without any shred of
doubt whatsoever, Buhari’s order (“the-order-from-the-above”) was carried out
to the later

However, the question remains:
what led to the killing of the pregnant woman and some elderly ones? What are
the reasons of Gen. Buratai, who faulted the criticism of security agencies in
the handling of Monday’s protests by members of the Indigenous People of Biafra
(IPOB) in Onitsha, which resulted in some deaths? Nevertheless, IPOB were not on protest rather they were in the
process of marking the Heroes and Heroines Day and the 50th
Anniversary of Genocide against Biafrans.
Naturally, similar observance
took place in the United Kingdom where Prime Minister Cameron participated in commemorations marking the 100th anniversary of
Battle of Jutland where thousands of sailors fought to prevent the domination
of a continent & in defence of
British values. In the same vein, President Obama performed a related function
just about the same time and date but in the United States of America.
Therefore, remembrance of fallen heroes is an acceptable rite in any civil and
responsible society or country.
Therefore, from
the Nigeria Army, Police, DSS to other sister security agencies, what happened
did happen as a sign of things to come. Very soon, each and every of these armed organisations,
individually and collectively, will have to pay restitution, and when it did occur, each one will answer to all these
extra-judiciary murders going on in the
South-East and South-South. Not only that these
security agents unlawfully killed unarmed people of Biafra. They hijack even the dead bodies of IPOB members
from various hospitals where they are receiving
treatment. In Crown Hospital, for
instance, the soldiers threatened to set
the building ablaze for reasons best known to these agents of darkness.
Events have
remarkedly exposed Gen. Buhari’s reign as a regime of terror and change – far
from “change” he dangled in the face of
people before the election. Moreover, his style, demeanour
and disposition depict the difference between a real civilian Democrat and a military born-again Democrat. To
this end, We call on the Gen. Buhari as the commander-in-chief
of the armed forces to immediately without delay pull out these soldiers from Biafra land.
Moreover, where there is a need to police the community, we expect nothing
short of the transparent application of the rule of law and deployment of well-trained
officers with conscionable standards.
Indigenous
People of Biafra will do everything within her powers to seek justice for our population now and shortly. No amount of intimidation will make us give up on this
issue. We are deeply pained by what happened especially for killing over
hundreds of our members on May 30th and 31st 2016,
without any reasonable justification.
We commiserate
with their immediate family and their loved ones. However, our resolve remains
resolute. We are very responsible and wish to assure everyone that time and
eventual turn of event will exonerate us as due
diligent and careful Indigenous body
under the Leadership of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu whom
the same government of Buhari is unconstitutionally being detained and denied
his fundamental human rights.
