The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB on Monday refuted
claims by the Nigerian Army that it killed four operatives of the Eastern
Security Network, ESN.
IPOB said those killed in Nnobi, Idimili South Local
Government Area of Anambra State were criminals, terrorists, and not ESN
operatives.
In a statement by its spokesman, Emma Powerful, the
separatist group accused the Federal Government of falsehood.
IPOB said “The attention of the Indigenous People of Biafra
(IPOB) under the command and leadership of our great leader Mazi Nnamdi KANU has
been drawn to the fabricated and laughable claims by Nigeria Government and its
military that they killed four IPOB and ESN operatives in Nnobi Idemili South
LGA Anambra State.
“We want to categorically state to all and sundry that IPOB
and ESN members were not the ones killed in the said operation. Neither IPOB
members nor ESN operatives were among those purportedly killed by the Army in
Nnobi two days ago. We don’t know why Nigeria Government always likes to cover
the truth and peddle falsehood.
“What happened was that they mistakenly killed some
criminals and terrorists. These bunch of hooligans are the ones unleashing
mayhem on our people in the name of ESN, just to implicate and demonise IPOB.
But nemesis caught up with them.
“Nigerian Army thought they killed ESN operatives not
knowing it was bandits recruited by Uzodinma that they killed. They now wanted
to cover up by tagging them IPOB members but unknown to them their deceit can
not be covered anymore.”
