The Indigenous People of Biafra has backed the Enugu State
governor, Dr Peter Mba, on his commitment to end the Monday sit-at-home in the
state, adding that they are supporting him to stop it because IPOB had already
stopped it.
The pro-Biafran group, however, cautioned the governor
against the use of force on the people, saying the police know the criminals
enforcing the “non-existent sit-at-home.
IPOB stated these in a statement by its spokesman, Emma
Powerful, on Monday, while also reminding Mba that the group had already
suspended the exercise before some criminal elements hijacked it.
The group said, “After our leadership initiated the Monday
sit-at-home order to demand for the release of our leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu,
the IPOB leadership has long directed stoppage of the exercise to avoid
criminals capitalising on that to harm our people.
“Though some Biafrans continued with Monday sit-at-home
voluntarily, as our leader predicted, after the suspension order, some
criminals and infiltrators hijacked it and started committing crimes and
enforcing non-existent Monday sit-at-home.
“The Enugu State Governor, Dr Peter Mba should be made aware
that IPOB has already suspended Monday sit-at-home. For him to publicly
associate IPOB with Monday sit-at-home is obnoxious. If Mba wants to return
normalcy on Mondays, he has the support of IPOB because those enforcing
non-existent Monday sit-at-home are criminals.
“Anybody enforcing non-existent Monday sit-at-home order is
not helping IPOB and our leader Mazi Kanu. Every member of IPOB and Biafrans
should be coming out on Mondays for their business.”
The group, however, noted that while the exercise is
gradually winding down across the South-East, Mba should avoid the use of force
to clamp down on the people as this would create anarchy.
It said the security agents can stop the enforcers of
sit-at-home and their sponsor because they know themselves, adding that “their
leader in Europe are behind these criminalities going on in the South-East with
the support of the Federal Government just to blackmail IPOB”.
“The governor must know that the Nigeria Police know the
criminals and the hideout of the criminals who enforce sit-at-home in some
communites but are claiming to be IPOB but they are not.
“We are calling on Mba never allow a single person die
because of this exercise because we don’t know anything about it.
“Calling on the Nigeria murderous security agents to stop
Monday sit-at- home is a call that will be used as a license to target and kill
IPOB members and innocent Biafra citizens. So, Mba should be careful not to be
used by enemies to target and attack IPOB members and ESN operatives.
“Mba should never make the same mistake, Anambra State
governor, Prof. Chukwuma Soludo made by using the Nigeria compromised security
to stop Monday sit-at-home . Any attempt to use murderous Fulani controlled
security to stop the sit-at-home is an indirect way of killing our people.
“Such moves will always be counterproductive. Such measures
failed in Ebonyi, Imo, and Anambra, and it will fail in Enugu if it is applied.
We support him to stop the Monday sit-at-home, as we have stopped the
sit-at-home. Allow the Monday sit-at-home to die off naturally by engaging our
people,” the group added.
