IPOB Press Release
November 26 2021 | IPOB
The attention of global movement and family of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) under the command of our indefatigable leader, Mazi Nnamdi KANU, has been drawn to the fallacious and fabricated statement from the compromised Nigeria Army blaming IPOB for the atrocities they committed at Awo-Mmamma in Imo State on 22nd of November, 2021.
The allegation by the Acting Deputy Director, Army Public Relations, 82 Division, Nigerian Army, Major Abubakar Abdullahi, that IPOB and ESN are responsible for setting vehicles and houses on fire in Awo-Mmamma, Imo State is false and intended to divert attention.
It is too appalling that Nigerian Army set the whole community ablaze and burnt down the whole community because of attack by unknown gunmen created by the Supreme Court Administrator of Imo State, Hope Uzodinma in his quest to demonise IPOB and ESN operatives. Now that the monster they created has gone out of control they are blaming IPOB for their wickedness.
The fact remains that IPOB is a nonviolent movement seeking the peaceful restoration of Biafra. Neither IPOB nor ESN was involved in the mayhem at Awo-Mmamma community. The wicked Nigeria Army which cannot resist Boko Haram and Fulani bandits slaughtering them and other security agents as well as hapless citizens in North like fowls show their gallantry only when dealing with innocent Biafrans.
Boko Haram is destroying lives and properties worth billions of Naira in the North and the Army has never attacked any community in retaliation but they are here shamelessly destroying Igbo land for nothing. They should know they will one day account for their atrocities in Biafra land.
What did the innocent people of Awo-Mmamma do to deserve the destruction of their homes and means of livelihood by soldiers? Why did the Army not go after their attackers but cowardly transferred their aggression on innocent folks? What they did at Awo-Mmamma is unprovoked destruction of a defenseless community.
The Nigerian Army is still penalising Awo-Mmamma because of their son Ikonso who it earlier murdered in cold blood because he was a member of ESN resisting FULANI bandits against occupation of our ancestral land.
The 82 Division of the NIGERIA Army instead of owning up to their atrocities at Awo-Mmamma, as usual resorted to lies. No matter how hard they try to cover up, truth cannot be buried.
The good people of Awo-Mmamma already know who their attackers are. They know that IPOB and ESN were not involved in burning down of their shops, properties and buildings.
Nigeria Army must stop denying the obvious. The world must hold them accountable for their crimes against humanity in Biafra land.
It is a big shame that the so-called political elite and Igbo leaders are watching purported repentant Fulani terrorists recruited into Nigerian Army destroy our communities. Last month they burnt down villages in Awgu, Enugu State, now it is Awo-Mmamma in Imo State. Just last they burnt down two communities in Izombe, Oguta also in Imo State. Who knows where their next target will be, yet own political elite are watching them?
The global community must know that IPOB and ESN were not responsible for the burning down of communities in Biafra land contrary to blatant lies by the NIGERIA Army. There are credible video and pictorial evidence showing Nigeria Army engaging in this inhumanity. They must be made to answer for their crimes.
Hope Uzodinma should hide his face in shame for watching the destruction of the people he claims he is governing. No Northern governor can take this nonsense.
