The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, on Saturday distanced
itself from the Biafra National Guard, BNG.
IPOB said it has nothing to do with any group involved in
criminality.
In a statement by its spokesman, Emma Powerful, it said
IPOB’s leader, Nnamdi Kanu does not encourage criminality.
Powerful disclosed that anybody caught in the act of
criminality would be dealt with.
According to Powerful: “We the global movement and family of
the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) ably led by our prophet and
indefatigable leader Mazi Nnamdi KANU wish to alert IPOB families worldwide and
the international community that we do not know of a group called Biafra National
Guard (BNG) and should not be linked in a shape or form with this group whose
activities do not correspond with IPOB’S fundamental objectives.
“We have observed the unpatriotic and nefarious activities
of this group and we hereby unequivocally dissociate ourselves from the group
and its activities. This group has no link whatsoever with IPOB and doesn’t
work for IPOB. IPOB has nothing to do with any group associated with
criminality. Our mandate is the peaceful restoration of Biafra, anything other than
this will have nothing to do with us.
“Our leader Mazi Nnamdi KANU does not encourage criminality
or any action injurious to the people of Biafra. We don’t encourage extortion
or forceful collection of fuel and other lubricants from any petrol station in
Biafraland. This is criminality that cannot be condoned in Biafra land.
“IPOB also abhors hostage-taking and demand for ransom which
is a common characteristic of Fulani terrorists and Fulani Herdsmen and any
group associated with such criminality in Biafraland will be resisted by IPOB.
“Anybody or group caught in such barbaric act will be
seriously dealt with. Some evil politicians are using crimially minded elements
to foment trouble in our land.”
