THE leadership of the Indigenous People of Biafra has
warned the people of the South-East to be vigilant on
Monday (today), claiming security agents may unleash
mayhem on innocent citizens and blame it on members of
the Eastern Security Network.
This is as the secessionist group reiterated that it had no
plan to enforce its hitherto weekly sit-at-home order,
alleging that it had uncovered a plot by security operatives
to disguise as its members and those of ESN to “attack
traders who come out tomorrow for their legitimate
businesses”.
IPOB noted that it was expedient for the global community
to be aware that it had since two weeks ago suspended
its earlier weekly sit-at-home order.
The proscribed group stated this in a statement signed by
its Director of Media and Publicity, Emma Powerful, a
We Won’t Enforce Sit-At-Home Again – IPOB by deltaboyo1opy of which was made available to The oniftv on
Sunday.
The statement read in part, “The intelligence unit of IPOB
has uncovered secret plots by the Nigeria security
agencies, most especially the DSS and the police to
disguise as IPOB and ESN operatives to attack traders
who come out tomorrow for their legitimate businesses.
“IPOB restates that there is no longer Ghost Mondays in
Biafra land in solidarity with our detained leader, Mazi
Nnamdi Kanu. Sit-at-home will only be observed on the
days our leader will be making appearances in court. Such
days will be well publicised ahead of time.
“Everybody is hereby placed on alert about this wicked
plot. IPOB will not tolerate any attack on any Biafran or
resident of Biafra under any guise.
“Security agencies have perfected plans to unleash attacks
on innocent people in the name of ESN and IPOB
volunteers. We have no plans again to enforce any sit-at-
home order.
“We understand that all DPOs, DCOs other senior police
officers in Enugu held meeting to perfect this plan to
attack innocent Biafrans and tag it ESN attacks.
