‘Buhari is engaging in a mad orgy of genocidal extermination’
IPOB condemns mass seizure of pro-Biafra newspapers
– IPOD has released a statement to respond to the St Michael’s Road raid yesterday
– Nigerian soldiers swooped on the street and seized pro-Biafra newspapers
– IPOB described the raid as the latest example of President Buhari’s lust for Biafran blood
The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) movement has released a statement to respond to yesterday’s incident on St Michael’s Road in Abia, Abia state.
Nigerian army soldiers descended on the road and seized newspapers containing pro-Biafra newspapers or publications containing information on Biafra.
According to the Nation, editions of New Republic, Vesym, Freedom and The Authority were seized by the rampaging soldiers.
In its statement, signed by its spokespersons Emma Nmezu and Clifford Chukwuemeka Iroanya IPOB directly blames President Muhammadu Buhari for the assault and described his motives as low, absurd, and indicative of the president’s supposed relish in killing.
IPOB’s accusation references the former army general’s service during the Biafra War in which 3 million people died.
“Buhari has never hidden his orgy for the extermination of Biafrans. Buhari was among the army officers who led the British-backed Nigerian Military to massacre over two million Biafrans at Owerri in 1968,” IPOB said.
“When Buhari is not snuffing lives out of unarmed and peaceful Biafrans, he is incarcerating them and denying them access to basic information platforms.”
Nigeria has been rocked by pro-Biafra protests recently
“By confiscating newspapers, Buhari has taken his madness to another level. His despicable conduct today is another evidence that the International Criminal Court shall consider when looking into the various crimes he has been committing,” IPOB said.
“The international community must caution Buhari and stop him in his tracks. The world must not wait until Buhari commits his second Owerri-like genocide before taking action.”
