Governor Ikpeazu
By PAMELA EBOH, Awka
The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has warned against any plans to enthrone Fulani Emirates in the South-East especially in Imo and Abia states.
It said that any Igbo politician and Party that has reached any agreement to enthrone Fulani Emirate in any Christian community in Biafraland will be resisted with everything in its power.
IPOB hailed the proactive approach used by Abia State Governor, Okezie Ikpeazu, to stop what it described as a nonsensical move by Fulani stooges to introduce Fulani Emirate in Abia State.
The group In a statement by its Media and Publicity Secretary, Emma Powerful, said: “If that agenda has not been nipped in the bud, the caliphate in collusion with some people in the East would have established a Fulani Emirate in Aba, Abia State.
“After the plans and strategy used by the good people of Biafra to stop the enthronement of Fulani Emirate in Imo State by the Fulani Supreme Court appointed Governor, Hope Uzodinma. The people of Imo State must be very vigilant and know that Hope Uzodinma has not given up on this plan to create a fulani Emirate in Imo State. This is the reason he has created so much insecurity in Orlu and Oru axis where he is planning to establish this Fulani Emirate.
“Any governorship candidate who has intention and is romancing with Abuja to bring in Fulani Emirate in our region should not be allowed to win this election on Saturday 11thMarch. We know them and they know that we know them.
“Other desperate jobless politicians who have massacred and spilt the blood of Igbo Biafrans in service to their Fulani masters are governor David Umahi of Ebonyi State and governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State. These men are enemies of Igbo Nation working for the Fulani Caliphate.
“These agents of darkness believe the Igbo are stupid, that after committing their atrocities against Igbos for eight (8) uninterrupted years, they will offer a one (1) minute lip and insincere apology to deceive the Igbos in supporting them and their political stooges who will only come in to continue where these agents of wickedness and evil stopped.”
IPOB further said: “Igbo Biafrans in Ebonyi and Rivers State must not be fooled by these people and must ensure that they and their candidates are resoundly rejected and humiliated on Saturday’s governorship election.
“The blood of our people they murdered will not forgive the Igbo in Ebonyi and Rivers State and of course you will have yourself to blame if you allow these murderers to impose the next governor in Ebonyi and Rivers States.
“Obigbo massacre is still fresh in our memories and many of the victims are still in different detention facilities across the Zoo Nigeria military barracks.”
IPOB called on politicians romancing with the terrorists politically to check the security situation of non-fulani communites in the North where Emirates were enthroned, noting that the original occupants of such communites with Fulani Emirates are being killed off, forced to abandon their ancestral lands, while their towns and villages are being renamed by the Fulani invaders.
While insisting that the land of Biafra is a sacred and peaceful one, IPOB said that it cannot accommodate murderous groups like the herdsmen and Boko Haram.
“It’s an ancestral home for Biafrans, which cannot be shared with invaders whose agenda is to terrorise, kill, and occupy.
“Let the Eastern jobless politicians understand that IPOB and other conscious Igbos can never allow any enthronement of Fulani Emirate in any community in Biafra Land. We cannot co-exist with those who have conquest ideology agendas in the same region.
”Any person or party that have gone into alliance with Fulani Cabals in Abuja to take over power in the East, massacre Igbo Biafrans and in the end, compensate them with Emirates will be disappointed.
“Is it surprising to any Igbo Biafrans that only these three murderous governors, Hope Uzodinma, David Umahi and Nyesom Wike worked against their own brother at the just concluded Nigerian Presidential Selection process.
“We urge Imo, Ebonyi and Rivers States indigenes not to allow these men to continue with their evil political agendas against the collective interest of the Igbo Nation of Biafra.
“These desperate politicians are part of those sponsoring insecurity in the Eastern region. We shall continue to expose them and shall never allow them to succeed.”
IPOB further called on Igbo Biafrans to reject and avoid any politician in any form of alliance with Fulani cabals, saying that such men should not be allowed into any state government’s house in Biafraland.
