IPOB disassociates self from the so-called Biafra Republic Government in Exile

The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB and its Directorate of States DoS, has disassociated themselves from the so-called Biafra Republic Government in Exile.

IPOB in a statement signed by its Media and Publicity Secretary, Mr. Emma Powerful which was made available to EASTERN PILOT PRESS said that the people behind the group are double agents sponsored by the Nigeria government to ridicule IPOB movement. IPOB has consistently disassociated ourselves from the Autopilot groups, yet these agent provocateurs keep associating their criminal activities and actions to IPOB, ESN, and Mazi Nnamdi KANU because they were sent to distract and deter our movement, Emma Powerful said.

According to IPOB, “we have passed the stage of blackmail in whatever disguise. Nigeria Government has used every means to blackmail and demonize IPOB globally, including murdering innocent citizens and their own soldiers in Biafra land. But by the grace and wisdom of Chukwu Okike Abiama, we surmounted all their evil blackmail strategies. This latest kangaroo Biafra Government in Exile, bankrolled by the Nigeria Government, is dead on arrival”.

 We are alerting the International Community, the Nigeria media, and the general public to note that  IPOB and Mazi Nnamdi KANU are not part of these antics and games coming from the Federal  Government of Nigeria with the so called Biafra Government in Exile and their Liberation Army. At no time in this struggle that Mazi Nnamdi KANU or IPOB leadership lead have they declared Arm struggle, or have they formed a Biafra Army. What IPOB formed and inaugurated was armed vigilantes called Eastern Security Network (ESN). The ESN consists of IPOB members who have volunteered to protect our forests and farmlands from murderous Fulani herdsmen who have been killing, maiming, raping our people, and abducting farmers in our farms all over  Biafra land. Autopilot has no business with ESN, though they have been using ESN's name to defraud people.

IPOB is a peaceful and legally registered organisation in many countries of the world seeking independence from the Nigeria State.

On the other hand, the so-called  Biafra government in Exile are factional members of Autopilot. None of them is an IPOB member. These gangs are people sponsored by the Nigeria government to shop evidence to be used against Mazi Nnamdi KANU and IPOB. That's why they keep linking themselves and their activities to IPOB and MNK.  Therefore, anybody or group linking IPOB with autopilot and their activities should be ready to meet us in the law court.
