The Counsel to the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Ifeanyi Ejiofor, has called on the people of the South East region to unite and restore peace in the land.
Naija News reports that this comes days after the arrest of a self-acclaimed Prime Minister of the Biafra Republic Government in Exile, Simon Ekpa.
In a statement to newsmen in Owerri about insecurity in the South East region, Ejiofor declared it is game over for those clinging to the baseless December declaration of the Biafra nation.
He said, “I have always maintained that lies, deceit, fraud, treachery, and criminality have an expiration date. When the truth reaches its breaking point, it is inevitable: Game Over!!!
“To those still clinging to baseless December declaration, rest assured, December will come and go uneventfully. In the past, when fantastical claims about fighter jets and warships were peddled as obvious tools for self-aggrandizement by the serial fraudster, I warned those willing to listen that they have been swindled. My stance earned me severe criticism, threats, and defamation. But today, where do we stand?
“It is time for those who profess to have been deceived by an unrepentant serial fraudster to pause, reflect, and retreat. Let us restore peace in our land, so the custodians of Igbo heritage can seek ways to appease the gods for the atrocities committed against our people.
“There is indeed no gainsaying that Ndi Igbo are deeply marginalized in the Nigerian political setting and system. However, true struggles for the liberation of the oppressed must reject violence, fraud, criminality, and abuse as strategies. Freedom can never be won through such means. There’s absolutely no wisdom in cutting off one’s nose to spite one’s face.”
