IPOB Releases Statement On Northerners Residing In The South-east

IPOB, the Indigenous People of Biafra, has promised Hausas in the South-East that they are protected and safe on Saturday.

IPOB’s Media and Publicity Secretary, Emma Powerful, in a statement, promised that members of the organisation will never hurt Hausas or non-indigenes in the South-East.

IPOB and its militia arm, the Eastern Security Network, ESN, will safeguard Hausas from Jihadists targeting civilians in the South-east, according to Powerful.

He recounted how IPOB leader Nnamdi Kanu warned against targeting Hausas and other non-indigenous people in the Southeast.

Emma Powerful said that the IPOB “strongly condemns any attack on non-Biafran nationals living in our land.

“Our leader Mazi Nnamdi KANU had predicted what is happening during his numerous prophetic radio broadcasts. During those broadcasts, he had also spoken against attacks on non-indigenes

“Kanu made a holistic announcement during those days that Hausas are facing the same predicaments Igbo people are facing in Nigeria and should be allowed to do business anywhere they like in Biafraland. Biafrans shall never try to harm any Hausa man or woman in Biafra land for any reason.

“IPOB will ensure the protection of all persons living in Biafra land including non-indigenes. We will continue to protect them against our common enemy – the jihadists and their sponsors.”
