The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has vowed to remain resolute in its legitimate and non-violent agitations for Biafra restoration.
The group says it is not bothered about alleged intimidation and propaganda against its leader, Nnamdi Kanu, by the Federal Government.
The Media and Publicity Secretary of IPOB, Emma Powerful, in a statement condemned the parade of some ”criminals” with revered insignia and hallowed flag of the group.
He described it as ”stupid mockery” and unintelligent of the Police command in Awka, Anambra State.
The statement read in part: “The parade of those they termed armed robbers and cultists, will not deter us from pursuing our legitimate and non-violent agitations for Biafra restoration,” the group said in the statement.
“The entire civilised world which Nigeria appears not to be a part of are fully aware that IPOB is a non-violent movement with unprecedented following all over the world. This hopeless and shambolic attempt by this government to portray IPOB otherwise by Hausa Fulani men of the Nigerian police should be roundly condemned by all men and women of good conscience.
“As a necessary precaution, we have instructed the chambers of Barrister Ifeanyi Ejiofor, our lawyer, to commence legal action against Anambra State Police Command for this pathetic attempt to impugn the integrity of IPOB.
”The Hausa Fulani controlled Nigerian Police must know that the world is watching this latest episode in stupidity and pathetic attempt to frame IPOB. Any Nigerian with any sense of dignity must be thoroughly ashamed of what this Buhari administration is doing in their name.”
