Biafra: International community, foreign observers to monitor sit-at-home – IPOB

The leadership of the Indigenous People of
Biafra, IPOB, in a statement Emma powerful
said international community and other
foreign observers have been delegated to
monitor the May 30 sit-at-home order it
declared in honour of fallen heroes of
Biafra during the civil war between
1967-1970.


The IPOB said there would be total
restriction of movement because the
international community and foreign
observers would be in Biafra land with their
media team to ascertain if the people of
Biafra were ready for the upcoming
referendum for Biafra sovereignty.
under Nnamdi Kanu ipob remains a peaceful
and non-violent organisation in the history
of freedom fighting across the globe.


He said the agitation for Biafra will
continue following the rules provided by the
United Nations Charter for the rights of the
indigenous people.


IPOB media aid said is calling on all
Biafrans both home and abroad to key into
the remembrance day celebration of our
fallen heroes and heroines who paid the
ultimate sacrifice fighting for the right of
Biafrans..

“The May 30 sit-at-home and remembrance
day celebration will be a remarkable event
in the history of Biafra.


“We are going to maintain the peaceful
approach in pursuit of our freedom from
Nigeria. The Biafra liberation movement is
sacrosanct and we are waxing stronger
both at home and diaspora and will not go
back in the quest for the restoration of
Biafra..



“Anybody who is thinking to sabotage the
struggle is doing that at his or her own
detriment, the conditional bail attached to
our leader was to cage him and to dampen
the high spirits of IPOB family members
worldwide,” Powerful stated.



They however, frowned at the continued
detention of Chidiebere Onwudiwe,
Benjamin Madubugwu, David Nwawuisi,
Bright Chimezie, George Onyeibe and other
members in different Nigeria prisons in
Igweocha in River State, Delta State,
Anambra State, Akwa Ibom State, Abia
State and Abuja.



“We blame the judicial commission and
Attorney General of the Federation for
allowing Justice Binta Nyako to continue
messing up the judicial system in Nigeria.
“The Attorney General of the Federation
should have dropped all the concocted and
fabricated charges preferred against our
leader, Nnamdi Kanu and others remanded
in prison to save their image in the face of
the international community.



“It is very appalling that a well trained
judge like Justice Binta Nyako would allow
herself and the court to be used to bar
Kanu from exercising his fundamental
human rights.


“However, the continued detention of these
people in different prisons and DSS secret
cells across the country remained the
weakness on the side of the Judicial
Commission and Attorney General of the
Federation.



“It is very abnormal that the Judicial
Service Commission and judiciary in Nigeria
that suppose to be the last hope for the
common man would turn themselves to be
problem for the masses.
“With the judgment on April 25, 2017
banning our leader from speaking to the
press and staying with more than 10
persons, proves to the world that the
judiciary in Nigeria is where truth can never
prevail.




“According to the information reaching us,
those our members detained in different
prisons and secret cells across the country
are no more safe, almost all of them are
sick without proper medical attention,
especially those in Kuje prison..


“We are calling for their immediate release
to enable them take proper medical
treatment because we will not take it easy
with anybody if anything happens to any of
our members in detention anywhere in the
country.



“We are calling on men and women of good
conscience across the globe, Amnesty
International and relevant human rights
organisations to prevail on the Attorney
General of the Federation and the Judicial
Service Commission to drop the concocted
and fabricated charges preferred against
our leader Nnamdi Kanu and others
detained illegally alongside him in Kuje
Prison because they committed no offence
against anybody or Nigeria.




“The injustice against the people of Biafra
in Nigeria are numerous to mention, IPOB,
under the leadership of Kanu have decided
to fight it to a standstill.


What we discussed with Osinbajo –
Minister of Defence, Dan-Ali
“Of course, many are aware that this is a
project of God Almighty (Chukwu Okike
Abiama) which IPOB embarked upon to
liberate our people from the shackles of
bondage.”
