Biafra: IPOB disown Simon Ekpa, warn him against impersonating Kanu

The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, on Saturday, distanced itself from Simon Ekpa, a self-acclaimed disciple of Nnamdi Kanu.

IPOB said Ekpa and his auto-pilot group were not members of the separatist group.

The IPOB’s spokesperson, Emma Powerful, has charged Ekpa of utilizing the organisation and the Eastern Security Network, ESN, to scam gullible members of the public.

According to Powerful, Ekpa should disassociate himself from the IPOB since he has failed to uphold the group’s goals.

The statement reads: “We, the global movement and family of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) under the command and leadership of our great leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu wishes to disassociate our noble movement from the ignoble and criminal activities of Simon Ekpa and his autopilot group.

“IPOB has been existing long before Simon Ekpa and autopilot group came on board. Simon Ekpa and his group are neither part of IPOB worldwide family neither do they subscribe to our operational methodology and people should therefore stop associating them with the revered IPOB under the command of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.

“Henceforth, they and the general public are put on notice to desist from using the name of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, ESN and IPOB to defraud the unsuspecting public or for any of their activities. Ekpa and his group should stop their attempt to ridicule and debase the institutions our leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu sacrificed all to establish.

“We want to place it on record that Simon Ekpa is not, and has never been a member of IPOB. Since he does not want to abide by the ideals of IPOB, he should form his own group and pursue Biafra freedom the way he is convinced and stop attaching himself to the cherished name of IPOB.”

IPOB cautioned that Ekpa would soon be abandoned by those politicians sponsoring him to demonize ESN and Kanu.
