The Indigenous People of Biafra, on Saturday, claimed it had
secured a judgment in a court in the United States of America
against Governor Willie Obiano of Anambra State and his Abia State
counterpart, Okezie Ikpeazu, over human rights violations of IPOB
members.
The spokesperson for IPOB, Emma Powerful, accused some Igbo
leaders of trying to sabotage the Biafra cause in order to please
the Federal Government.
The statement partly read, “Ikpeazu was recently indicted by a
US court for his role in the murder of innocent IPOB family members
in Abia State.
“Also answering to this charge of mass murder is the Chief of
Army Staff, Gen. Tukur Buratai; Obiano and others whose case is
presently ongoing in a US District Court in Washington DC. The
trial is in connection with their roles in the mass murder of IPOB
members in Abia, Anambra and Enugu states.
“The Federal Government, out of desperation to divert attention
from relentless criticisms of its role in the massacre of indigenes
of Abia State in cold blood, and the invasion of the home of our
leader, Nnamdi Kanu, which Okezie Ikpeazu and Nnia Nwodo played a
major role, quickly decided to use the media to launch a counter
attack to neutralise the adverse publicity their actions were
generating.
Reacting to IPOB’s claim, Obiano’s media aide, Oliver Okpala,
described IPOB’s claim of securing a judgment against Obiano as
laughable.
He insisted that IPOB remained a proscribed organisation.
Okpala said IPOB should find a way to remove the toga of
proscription by approaching a Nigerian court to that effect.
