IPOB

From Stanley Uzoaru Owerri

The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has commended Mark Arnold and the US Congress members for their intervention in the situation in Nigeria.

In a statement signed by the Spokesperson for IPOB, Comrade Emma Powerful, the group thanked the Congress members for their stand on the issue and reiterated the group’s demand for a UN-supervised referendum for Biafra’s self-determination.

His statement reads in part: “The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) Worldwide, under the unassailable leadership of Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, warmly commends Mr. Mark Arnold and the courageous members of the United States Congress for their timely and fearless intervention in exposing the unfolding catastrophe in Nigeria.

“Your bold stand has pierced the veil of international silence and complicity that has long shielded the systematic slaughter of Judeo-Christian communities across Nigeria. History will record that at a critical moment, when many chose diplomatic convenience over moral clarity, you chose to speak truth to power, warning Britain and the entire world of the impending doom that awaits Nigeria, if the ongoing genocide against indigenous Christians is allowed to continue unchecked.

“We make no apology for stating the obvious: every prophecy uttered by our leader, Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, is coming to pass with clinical precision. Those who doubted him in the past must now confront the bitter reality before their eyes.

“The handwriting is no longer on the wall; it is written in the blood of thousands of defenceless men, women, and children massacred across the Middle Belt, Southern Kaduna, Plateau, Benue, and increasingly in Yorubaland.

“The Middle Belt has fallen; Yorubaland is being systematically overrun by killer herdsmen. Only Biafraland, under the visionary leadership of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and the gallant efforts of the Eastern Security Network (ESN), remains a fortress, impervious to the Fulani rampage that has turned vast swathes of Nigeria into killing fields.

“To Mark Arnold and the distinguished US Congressmen, the global IPOB family says: Thank you. Thank you for standing tall as true sons of America and defenders of justice. Your intervention has vindicated the Biafran struggle and amplified our cry for freedom before the conscience of the world. “The Only Path to Peace: A UN Supervised Referendum. Let it be stated clearly and without equivocation: the singular demand of IPOB remains a peaceful, internationally supervised referendum for the people of Biafra to decide their political destiny. This is not negotiable. It is the only civilised, lawful, and sustainable solution capable of halting the cycle of bloodshed and preventing Nigeria’s total collapse.

“Any attempt to suppress this legitimate demand through military force, propaganda, or intimidation will only accelerate the very disintegration that sensible voices now fear. The resoluteness of our leader and the unity of purpose across the global IPOB family set us apart as the most disciplined and focused liberation movement of our time”, Powerful stated.
