IPOB Raises Alarm On Bandit Attack, Asks Residents To Be Vigilant

The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has alerted residents of the Southeast region to be vigilant against bandits attacking and killing innocent people in churches and homes. They urged the people to be cautious of strangers that may be disguised as worshippers, with the evil agenda of attacking them in churches and markets.

According to the group, church and market leaders should tighten up security while everyone should return to their homes early, warning that they should not fall for any deceit of Fulani that has flooded Abia State and other parts of the region.

IPOB disclosed these in a statement by its spokesperson, Emma Powerful on Tuesday. It reads: “Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) ably led by our prophet and indefatigable liberator Mazi Nnamdi Okwuchukwu Kanu has deemed it necessary to once again alert the Christians and the general public that Fulani people have devised another means of attack against Christians, churches, and non-Muslims in Biafraland.

“The information contained in the intel received from our intelligence unit “the M.Branch” that the Nigerian government is transferring bandits and terrorists as ostensible Christians into the Eastern region of Nigeria in readiness to replicate similar or deadlier terrorists act that was unleashed in Owo Catholic Church, Ondo State.

“These terrorists and bandits have flooded Biafraland especially the commercial cities like Aba, others in Abia State where Pastor Kumuyi had chosen for his aborted crusade.

“They now attach Christian names to their names as religious tricks to have you accept them. Examples are Emmanuel Kabiru Sule, Mathew Christian Shehu, John Lewis Katsina, and others.

“They tell very pathetic stories that touch the heart of people of conscience like the Igbos. Please don’t allow them they are terrorists and bandits. Christians in Biafraland should know that they are the next target and they must take absolute security precautions as their plans are deadlier than can be imagined.

“Churches must introduce tighter and properly detailed security measures, Do not fall for this Fulani hoodwink, they’re in our midst now. Always return home early, recognize and note the people and things around you.

“All markets leaders are advised to tighten up their securities because markets, where our people stay and do business, are another important target for Fulani bandits they have encircled everywhere but they will fail and nobody should entertain fear because IPOB/ESN is waiting for them, however, be sure to take precautionary measures.”

The statement reads further, “Don’t be quick to point or direct a stranger to your Pastor and your reverend fathers or rabbi or any other worker in your church. In the meantime, avoid late-night meetings and programs. Dangers ahead are too enormous, be ready for what is to come Biafrans, and report suspected movements to the IPOB office around you, we must bring them down they will not succeed.

“We have been encountering some of them at night and day, carrying Security jobs beyond your imagination. Everybody be watchful.”
