The Indigenous People of Biafra has condemned the South-East governors over their plans to establish security outfit to patrol highways in the region.
The pro-Biafran group said such move was unacceptable because the Ebubeagu that the governors created have killed and destroyed many lives and properties.
In a statement made available to journalists on Friday, the group’s Media and Publicity Secretary, Emma Powerful, said forming another security outfit in the region will cause confusion, anarchy, and increased criminality.
They insisted that IPOB will work against any other security outfit the governors will create.
It said, “We won’t allow rebranding of the same murderous Ebubeagu security outfit or the disguising of criminal elements ever. The Ebubeagu they created have killed and destroyed many of our people’s lives and properties.
“We the global family and movement of IPOB condemn the South East governors’ plan to form another security outfit in the region to patrol our highways.
“It is pathetic that these South-East governors can not publicly demand for the unconditional release of their brother, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, after the Appeal court’s verdict to acquit and discharge him, instead they are hypocritically calling for a political solution without the political will to accomplish it.
“We have Eastern Security Network working day and night to secure our region. These gallant men and women are paying ultimate price to keep our land safe from state sponsored terrorists. If it is not for ESN, by now, state sponsored Fulani militias would have over ran Biafra Land.
“Therefore, we don’t want another security outfit within our territory. Forming another security outfit means that the governors have exhausted their powers with Ebubeagu and are again looking for another means of causing confusion in Biafraland.
“Forming another security outfit in the region will cause confusion, anarchy, and increased criminality just like Ebubeagu did.
“IPOB will work against any other security outfit the governors will create because their Ebubeagu security outfit brought destruction and criminality into our land. We won’t allow rebranding of the same murderous Ebubeagu security outfit or the disguising of criminal elements ever.
“We expected the governors to demand for the unconditional release of Kanu and not waste their energy and resources creating another security outfit.”
