IPOB: ‘Biafra is the only answer to Nigeria’s problems,’ Group says

The comment was made by IPOB Media and Publicity Officer, Emma Powerful after a prayer session held in Nnewi, Anambra State for the release of the group’s leader, Nnamdi Kanu from prison.

The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has said that achieving the agitation for Biafra is the only solution to Nigeria’s problems.

The comment was made by IPOB Media and Publicity Officer, Emma Powerful after a prayer session held in Nnewi, Anambra State for the release of the group’s leader, Nnamdi Kanu from prison.

“Nigeria is dwindling to irredeemable situation under the All Progressives Congress (APC) government of President Muhammadu Buhari. Biafra is the only answer to the problem Nigeria is facing now,” Powerful said.

“The APC government is confused and the people who led Nigeria into this mess, the APC henchmen, their so called national leaders who wanted change at all cost, are now all dumb.

“They have no answer to the problems they have created. The only answer now is Biafra. We are not joking about this spiritual declaration. We have been praying and fasting. No bloodshed of Biafrans will go unpunished.

“The APC members who are deeply religious should go and ask questions about the consequences of the atrocities they have committed with the killing of innocent youths who were praying at Aba, innocent youths who were peacefully agitating in Onitsha whom the military killed.

“When we were taking those they shot dead to hospitals, their blood was revolting against the APC government and the party which will never know peace until they leave IPOB and other Biafra agitating groups alone.

“We want Chukwuokike Abiama(God Almighty) to reveal the truth in the next court and to the world, for Mr. Kanu our innocent leader, to disgrace and blind the enemies of Biafra and those who want to use Biafra and Mr. Kanu to gain cheap popularity in their misguided government that is heading for the rocks,” he added.

Kanu was arrested in October 2015 and is currently being detained at the Kuje Prison in Abuja.
