The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has dismissed claims by the military that its soldiers killed 20 members of the pro-Biafra fighters in Orsu Local Government Area of Imo State.

Media and Publicity Secretary of IPOB, Emma Powerful, in a statement, yesterday, sid the camp that was attacked belonged to “criminal infiltrators and not the IPOB’s security outfit, the Eastern Security Network (ESN).

“The viral video on social media showing the murderous Nigeria military inside the mother valley are indication that Nigeria Security Forces knew the pranks and deception they were doing on the public. Nigeria security forces have been for over three years, but did nothing.

“This was to show you that they have finished using them and they will eliminate all in no distance future. These criminal gangs that Nigeria Security Agencies claimed to have bursted their camp were recruited and funded by the Nigerian government through Governor Hope Uzodinma of Imo State, and with the aid and under the cover of the agent saboteur in Finland. That is why their so-called mother valley headquarter is inside Hope Uzodinma’s home province at Orsu Local Government in Imo State.

“They assisted Hope Uzodinma in winning his second term in office. After failed dialogue between the Imo State government representatives – Deputy governor and others and the Infiltrators General Commander Butuzor (Temple), Imo State and the Federal Government mobilised the military to dislodge and eliminate them.

“The Nigerian government and its security agencies are confused. How would they be mentioning Butuzor whose name was found written inside the Liberation Army camp, under their agent provocateur in Finland and still come outside to mention ESN operatives and IPOB volunteers. Those who went there knew where the  military liberation army ran to, and they would not mention it.

“Again, IPOB will tell them where they ran to, to disturb the community in Okigwe LGA. The Nigerian government will still mention IPOB and ESN operatives. They can now stop because everyone knows about their blackmail.

The struggle for Biafra freedom championed by Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB members worldwide is a responsible movement devoid of crime and violence. IPOB and ESN are in the forefront fighting terror and criminalities in Biafra Land. We are not involved in any form of crime as constantly alleged by the Nigerian government and her blackmailing media.”

Powerful advised the Nigeria security forces to stop ridiculing themselves “because they are aware that these criminals were recruited by the government itself and their double agent in Finland, who is giving command to Butuzor (Temple) to head the criminal camp, not an ESN member.”
