EditorTHE Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has declared October 1 a sit-at-home and a “No Nigerian Flag” day in the south east.
A statement from the Media and Publicity Secretary of IPOB, Emma Powerful, reads: “IPOB has declared 1st of October 2021 total shutdown in Biafra land as a sign of our rejection of the evil construct called Nigeria and there shall be no movement in Biafra land on this day.”
“Also IPOB has declared from today 25th September 2021 that all Nigerian flags mounted anywhere in Biafra land must be brought down, banks exceptional, IPOB leadership will communicate to banks directly and give them a reason they must peacefully bring down any Nigerian flag in their banking premises before we do it ourselves in our own way.”
“Everybody must strictly adhere to this directive from IPOB leadership. We want to let the world know you that Biafraland is not Nigeria and shall not be. Don’t say I don’t know, a word is enough for the wise.
The Biafran spokesman who advised residents to adhere strictly to the order, urged south easterners to support Ambazonia in Cameroon.
In his words, “We advise Biafrans to stand with Ambazonia people as they celebrate their God-given freedom and independence. We should bear in mind that our brothers and sisters in Ambazonia are passing through persecutions in the hands of the murderous Cameroonian Government just like Biafrans are facing similar ordeals in the hands of Fulani controlled Federal Government of Nigeria that sympathises with terrorists but kills peaceful agitators.”
“We, therefore, urge world leaders to use the opportunity of the ongoing United Nations General Assembly, UNGA meeting to discuss the sufferings of the two persecuted nations of Biafra and Ambazonia. Our people have suffered enough in the hands of our oppressors who are in bed with terrorists but derive pleasure in crushing peaceful agitators instead of addressing our genuine concerns.” He added
