Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) said Thursday that it was not
interested in the Anambra Governorship election billed for 6 November
2021 but on the freedom of Biafrian state adding that, “we never at
any time ask for boycott of Anambra election”.
The IPOB image maker, Emma powerful, made this disclosure to newsmen
while reacting to speculation making the round that it has stopped the
conduct of the election adding, “for the sake of clarity, what we said
was that the entire Biafra land would be locked down from November 5
to November 10, 2021 if by November 4 the federal government fails to
release our leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu unconditionally”.
“Our position has nothing to do with Anambra election. All we need is
the release of our Leader who committed no crime to be held
perpetually in custody. We have gathered through intelligence the plot
by Nigeria Government to keep our leader in detention perpetually
through frivolous court adjournments.
Politicians must leave IPOB out of their predicaments. They should
stop dragging IPOB into their election. We knew their evil plans when
they were killing their fellow politicians and blaming it on IPOB.
They should leave us alone”.
“Using social media to link IPOB to Anambra election shows most of
them are not informed about plots by Nigeria Government and her
security operatives to hijack this election and give it to whom they
feel to perfect establishment of Ruga in Anambra State. But that won’t
work for them because IPOB is ahead of their game plan”.
“We urge media houses to be objective in their reportage and cross
check their facts. IPOB has never at any time called for boycott of
Anambra election. Media houses should stop publishing lies against
us”.
