Press Release
THE UNBELIEVABLE DENIAL BY RIVERS STATE POLICE COMMISSIONER,
FOLUSO A. ADEBANJO, ON THE POLICE MASSACRE OF BIAFRANS RALLYING AT IGWEOCHA
(PORTHARCOURT) IN SUPPORT OF PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP OF USA
The world is held aghast at the barefaced lies and unbelievable
denial by Mr. Foluso A. Adebanjo, the Rivers State Police Commissioner,
concerning the massacre of Biafrans who came out on Friday, January 20th, 2017
to rally in support of Mr. Donald J. Trump, the 45th President of the United
States of America. In his denial speech, Mr. Adebanjo could not even
differentiate between a protest and a rally, hence his ignorant reference to
Biafrans‘ rally as a “protest.“ Given the antecedents of the uncouth and
ill-trained Nigerian Policemen and other security agencies, the Indigenous
People of Biafra (IPOB) under the leadership of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu published a
letter which it sent to the Police Authorities in Rivers State which notified
them of the upcoming rally. The Police Authorities, on their part, duly
acknowledged receipt of the letter via a communication they sent to the IPOB
officials in Rivers State. Also, Jeff Amechi Agbodo of The Sun Newspaper
reported on January 19th, 2017 that IPOB has formally notified the Rivers State
Police of their intention to hold a rally the next day in support of Donald
Trump.
IPOB decided to go through this formal communication channel
with the Rivers State Police Command despite the fact that Section-39 and
Section-40 of Nigeria’s Constitution gave us the right to assemble. Biafrans
from all over Nigeria converged at Igweocha on January 20th, 2017, and the
rally started in earnest at 9 am along Aba Road by Rumuola Junction.
We invite everyone to watch this Youtube video showing the peaceful and orderly rally conducted by IPOB:
On getting to the Garrison Junction area of the town, Foluso
Adebanjo ordered the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) of the Nigeria Police to
open fire at the rallying Biafrans. The SARS was later joined by the soldiers
of the Nigerian Army and agents of the Department of State Services (DSS).
Twenty Biafrans were shot dead on the spot. Seventy Biafrans were terminally
shot at critical and vital organs of their bodies. Much more were hit with the butt
of the guns, and many more had deep lacerations inflicted on their bodies as
the soldiers used bayonets on them. Mr. Foluso Adebanjo also ordered the arrest
of over 100 Biafrans who are still in detention up to this moment.
To hide their crimes, Foluso Adebanjo ordered the SARS squad
to evacuate the dead bodies to unknown destinations to destroy any evidence of
manslaughter against them. Hence Foluso Adebanjo has made away with as much as
ten dead bodies of Biafrans. In addition to the felling of unarmed and peaceful
Biafrans, Foluso Adebanjo ordered his men to burn American flags, Israeli
flags, and Russian flags which they seized from the rallying Biafrans. Unknown
to Foluso Adebanjo and his rampaging killer squads, all these were captured in
video and shall be released to the appropriate prosecuting authority.
Therefore the denial by Mr. Foluso Adebanjo on the heinous
crime he committed on the 20th January 2017 is deceptive and cannot pass the
test of time. It is crystal clear now that Foluso Adebanjo and his colleagues
at the Rivers State Police Command have joined the infamous group of
genocidists such as General Buratai, IGP Solomon Arase, Col. Issah Abdullahi,
etc who will spend the rest of their lives in prison for mass-murder. We want
to assure Mr. Foluso Adebanjo and his colleagues that they must receive
justice, no matter how long it takes.
We call upon the International Community to rise and condemn
these despicable acts of Foluso Adebanjo and his colleagues. We also call upon
the Envoys of America, Russia, and Israel to demand explanations from Foluso
Adebanjo why he resorted to burning the flags of their respective countries. We
assure the world that IPOB under the leadership of Nnamdi Kanu remains peaceful
and non-violent. Muhammadu Buhari and the British Government have tried in vain
to drag us into armed rebellion, but we shall continue to resist such
temptations.
We have set our eyes on the restoration of the nation of
Biafra and shall never be distracted by Buhari and the British Government. We
are doing so with the strong conviction that the restoration of Biafra is
unstoppable, irrevocable, and irreversible. Deaths cannot stop us from taking
that which God Almighty created for us, and we shall do so following the
psalmist words of confidence in Psalm Chapter 27 verse 1.
For us, it is Biafra or death!!!
Signed
Spokespersons for IPOB
 IN SUPPORT OF PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP OF USA){kind=link}
