The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has cautioned
Governor Dave Umahi of Ebonyi State over his remarks against its members.
IPOB warned Umahi that Fulanis will not allow him become
Nigeria’s president, hence he should stop his anger against its members.
Emma Powerful, IPOB’s spokesperson was reacting to claims
that Umahi distanced Fulanis from the killings and destruction of properties
belonging to Igbos in the Southeast.
In a statement, Powerful described Umahi as an insecure man
who lacks knowledge of his root.
The statement titled: “Dave Umahi Fulani will not give you
the Presidential ticket and not to talk about President of Nigeria,” reads:
“The attention of the global movement and family of the Indigenous People of
Biafra (IPOB) under the command and leadership of our great leader Mazi Nnamdi
KANU has been drawn to the fallacious and laughable statement credited to the
governor of Ebonyi state Eng. Dave Umahi as usual was ranting and calling Igbos
liars, calling IPOB family group liars and claiming that Fulani people were not
killing or burning down properties belonging to Biafrans in Biafraland and
anywhere in the country.
“Well, what else can you expect from a man who does not know
his actual roots? Such statements from a very insecure man do not surprise or
bother us in the least because we know where he is coming from and where he is
irretrievably heading to.
“Any individual or politician who ridicules his people
because of politics will certainly reap the reward of such misadventure and
David Umahi will not be an exception. People should ask David Umahi why no
Fulani terrorist governor in the North or politician ever condemn the
activities of Fulani terrorists like bandits, Boko Haram and other terrorist
groups rampaging the North but they will ask him to prove his loyalty by
condemning and killing those he claims are his people. Thank CHUKWUOKIKEABIAMA
for IPOB and our great leader Mazi Nnamdi the Fulani would have pursued
governor Dave Umahi out from Ebonyi state since two years ago.
“Acquiring certificates does not confer common sense to the
acquirer that is the sorry and pitiable state David Umahi has found himself in.
For him to say that Ebonyi state is not part of Biafra means that he is
suffering from chronic delusion and mental paralysis. Who told him that he has
the mandate of our people in Ebonyi state to decide for them? David Umahi at
best can only vote as an individual during the referendum, and he is entitled
to cast his vote for Nigeria for all we care but we assure him that during the
referendum his family members will vote for Biafra, not Nigeria.
“The governor of Ebonyi State Dave Umahi is on record
lamenting the atrocities committed last year by Fulani terrorists masquerading
as herdsmen who attacked part of his state and murdered over 100 innocent
citizens of the state. Now he is suddenly suffering from amnesia and no longer
has any recollection of his senses. Leaders my foot.
“Fulani Herdsmen have been pillaging and killing innocent
citizens in the states of Enugu, Anambra, Abia, Imo and Ebonyi States for a
very long time now. Dave Umahi has forgotten where he was shedding tears
because of the level of killing which Fulani did in his state last year but
today because he wants to use the blood of our people as a bargaining chip for
his unattainable selfish political ambition. I forgot he was shedding the
politicians’ insincere crocodile tears then and he must exonerate the Fulani
terrorists, and herdsmen, in Nigeria and blame the innocent victim and peaceful
Igbo and Biafrans for these killings.
“David Umahi may be blind to the footprint of the wanton
killings of innocent civilians by the Fulani Herdsmen adjudged the 4th most
deadly terror group in the world, but this is not hidden to the world and the
international community understand how Fulani murder innocent citizens in the
whole of Nigeria and not only in our region and Igboland but in all states and
regions. He should therefore stop exhibiting his stupidity to the world to see
and begin to ask if this man is not an Igbo man.
“The whole world today understands what IPOB is fighting for
and we must get it.”
