INDIGENOUS People of Biafra (IPOB) has urged Anambra State Governor, Chief Willie Obiano and security chiefs to refrain their personnel from at­tacking its members dur­ing the remembrance of Biafran heroes today.

A statement by the Me­dia and Publicity Officer of IPOB, Mr. Emma Pow­erful alleged that security agents have been unnec­essarily creating tension in the state.

He insisted that IPOB was a non-violent organ­isation bent on the resto­ration of Biafra.

“ IPOB, under the lead­ership of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu has never been in­volved in any crime or any form of violence and security agents should not cause more harm and damage to the non-vio­lent freedom group.”
