IPOB said Obi is not one of its members and has never supported the agitation for self-determination.
 The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB has called out Rabiu Kwankwaso of the New Nigeria Peoples Party.
IPOB on Tuesday warned Kwankwaso who is the presidential candidate
of NNPP to stop linking its struggle with the presidential ambition of
the Labour Party’s Peter Obi.
IPOB said Obi is not one of its members and has never supported the
agitation for self-determination; hence Kwankwaso should desist from
such connections.
Emma Powerful, the spokesman of IPOB, said the group is not interested in the process of Nigerian elections.
A statement by Powerful reads: “The global family of the
Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), under the command and leadership of
our great leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, wish to advise the former Governor
of Kano State, Rabiu Kwankwoso not to involve IPOB in the selection
process they call an election in Nigeria.
“The Nigerian politicians generally and Kwankwaso, in
particular, should desist from linking IPOB with Peter Obi’s political
ambition and campaign. Peter Obi is not an IPOB member, and never
supported our agitation for freedom at any time because he pursues a
totally different goal from that of the Indigenous People of Biafra
(IPOB). We have no interest in the Nigerian morally decadent and
fantastically corrupt political system and landscape.
“If Kwankwaso is threatened by the Labour party & Peter
Obi’s teeming support by the creative and talented but downtrodden,
neglected, deceived, deprived, killed (Endsars) Nigerian youths from
even the North which your generation does not have any good intentions
for, then he should go forward and settle his differences and stop
linking IPOB to their problem.
“IPOB is not interested in the worthless politics you play in
Nigeria, we don’t regard such daylight robbery, fraud, manipulation and
selection as election. Maybe there is something Kwankwaso is not telling
the world. Instead of saying the truth that because he is Fulani with
the (born to rule mentality), he cannot play second fiddle to a Southern
Christian presidential candidate, he has the temerity to associate our
hallowed liberation movement with the shameless murky waters of the Zoo
politics.
“IPOB is not concerned with the waves of this election; we have
never asked for nor said anything contrary to our goal and demand. What
we need is a referendum, and a referendum we must have. There are no
middle ways for us as a people as far as our liberty and freedom is
concerned. There is, therefore, nothing anybody can do to change our
resolve towards our stated goal, which is the restoration of Biafra.
“If there is a region to avoid due to criminality with
Terrorism, it is Northern Nigeria which sponsors several terrorist
groups as joint venture partners and recycles them in the military and
ministries, you should feel non – Northerners’ pulses when they
helplessly tag along with you guys to ascertain the sensitivity of their
irritations and pounding of hearts in silent prayers for safety.”
Powerful reiterated IPOB’s agitation for a referendum in the Southeast as stipulated by the United Nations, UN.
“Peter Obi is not a member of IPOB and he is neither agitating
or in support of our Self Determination struggle. Why associate him with
IPOB’s struggle for freedom. IPOB does not know who Peter Obi is going
by our biodata bank. Our demand is our inalienable rights to
self-determination and this we seek through a universally recognised and
accepted political process called *REFERENDUM* as stipulated by the
United Nations Charter.
“IPOB wish to use this medium and opportunity to warn every
politician in Nigeria to desist from linking IPOB with their politics
and selection process because we are not politicians and have no common
interest. We are freedom fighters,” he added. |
