Stay away from South East, IPOB tells Buhari
The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has asked President Muhammadu Buhari to stay away from the South East.
The president will be in Ebonyi, today, on a tour of three South East states. The group specifically gave the warning ahead of the president’s scheduled visit to Ebonyi, today, and Anambra State, tomorrow.
IPOB spokesman, Emma Powerful, said in a statement that “we (IPOB members) will die with him should he set his foot on the sacred land of Biafra.
“November 14, 2017, will be recorded in history as a bloody day, should Buhari attempt to land on the Biafran soil. He is coming to mock us and to urinate on the graves of our 91 brethren his Operation Python Dance II killed in Abia State. He is coming to show us that power belongs to the North and to tell us we are forever slaves.”
Meanwhile, soldiers attached to the 144 Battalion, Asa, Abia State, have arrested three IPOB members in Aba.
