Ahead of the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, (IPOB) Mazi Nnamdi Kanu’s hearing at the Federal High Court Umuahia, Abia State the group has clarified that it’s has not declared sit-at-home on Tuesday.
IPOB in a press statement Sunday by its Media and Publicity Secretary, Emma Powerful, dispelled rumour making the rounds that it had declared for a sit-at-home on Tuesday
The statement urged members of the public to discountenance the said rumour and go about their lawful businesses without fear of any molestations.
IPOB vowed to investigate the source of the rumour and sanction all those behind it.
The statement reads, “We the global movement and family of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) under the leadership and command of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu wish to remind Biafrans, friends of Biafra and lovers of freedom across the world that IPOB is not issuing a sit at home order on Tuesday 4th of October 2022. The 4th of October 2022 is a day when IPOB is going to challenge evil Nigeria Government over the illegal abduction and extraordinary rendition of our Leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu from Kenya to Nigeria.”Nigeria Government must provide evidence to the world on how and why they kidnapped and renditioned our leader Mazi Nnamdi KANU to Nigeria at Umuahia High Court.
“Yes that day is his court date but he is not appearing in court on that day, therefore, there will be no sit-at-home on that day. “We want every Biafran both home and in diaspora to ignore such rumours, and anybody who is responsible for peddling this kind of falsehood should stop it immediately. IPOB leadership has not authorized such purported order.
“IPOB is watching those with such mindsets who suffer our people. They will regret their actions soon. Anybody who contributes to the death of our people will pay dearly whether he or she is security personnel, civilian, religious leader, man, woman, including the politicians who contribute in small or big measure to ensure that our people incur human, and material losses. They will all pay dearly.” The statement concluded.
