Nigerian military on Friday
declared the Independent People of Biafra (IPOB) a terrorist organisation.
This is contained in a statement
by Major General, John Enenche, Director Defence Information.
He said, “after due professional
analysis and recent developments, it has become expedient, to notify the
general public that; the claim by IPOB actors that the organization is non
violent is not true.
“Hence, the need to bring to
public awareness the true and current state of IPOB.
“In this regard, some of their actions, clandestinely and actively, that has
been terrorising the general public among others include;
“The formation of a Biafra Secret
Service; Claimed formation of Biafra National Guard; Unauthorised blocking of
public access roads; Extortion of money from innocent civilians at illegal road
blocks.
“Militant possession and use of
weapons (stones, molotov cocktails, machetes and broken bottles among others)
on a military patrol on 10 September 2017.
“Physical confrontation of troops
by Nnamdi Kanu and other IPOB actors at a check point on 11 September 2017 and
also attempts to snatch their rifles.
“Attack by IPOB members, on a
military check point on 12 September 2017, at Isialangwa, where one IPOB actor
attempted to snatch a female soldier’s rifle.
“From the foregoing, the Armed
Forces of Nigeria wishes to confirm to the general public that IPOB from all
intent, plan and purpose as analysed, is a militant terrorist organisation.
“Therefore, parents and
particularly unsuspecting residents of the South East and other Nigerians
should advice their wards to desist from joining the group.
“The Defence Headquarters
restates its commitment to handling all the security challenges in the Country
and further assures all Nigerians of the protection of lives and property.”
