Biafra: IPOB reveals those behind killings in Owerri

The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has blamed the Presidency over its comments on the recent killings in Owerri, Imo State.

The group said FG’s comment “amounts to intimidation of Ndigbo” .

IPOB, in a statement by its Media and Publicity Secretary, Emma Powerful, wondered why the Presidency would be quick to react anytime Northerners are victims of insecurity in the country.

It challenged the Presidency to show how many times it ordered Northern leaders to fish out the perpetrators of the several senseless killings in the North whose victims are mainly Southerners, Christians and non-Muslims.

IPOB said the Federal Government and the Imo State Government should rather be held responsible for the ongoing genocide in the state which it blamed on criminals recruited by the enemies of Biafra to demonise IPOB and the Eastern Security Network, ESN.

“How many times has the Presidency ordered Northern leaders to produce the bandits killings security agents mostly from the South but serving in the North?”
