The Nigerian Presidency has revealed that the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB has a stockpile of bombs and different weapons all over Nigeria.
This was announced via a statement on Wednesday evening signed by Presidential Media aide, Garba Shehu.
The statement, which was largely criticising Amnesty International for defending pro-secession groups in Nigeria, described IPOB as a ‘proscribed terrorist organization’ that kills police officers and burns down government property.
“IPOB murder Nigerian citizens. They kill police officers and military personnel and set government property on fire.”
“Now, they have amassed a substantial stockpile of weapons and bombs across the country. Were this group in a western country, you would not expect to hear Amnesty’s full-throated defence of their actions.”
“Instead, there would be silence or mealy-mouthed justification of western governments’ action to check the spread of “terrorism.”
Let the “Nigerian presidency” be serious in dealing with the issue of insecurity for once. How can Garba Shehu make weighty allegations that cannot be substantiated just because of the AI reports on gross human Rights abuse in this country, instead of addressing the salient points raised by the international body.
But my question is do IPOB stockpile bombs and ammunition’s more than BOKOHARAM AND BANDITS
in the North
Can someone tell me the name of this game
Am bored
Your glorified bandits that enjoy presidential accolade, what are they doing? How many soldiers and police officers have we lost to your assassin’s onslaught, not to mention civilians that have been killed by your sponsored killers across States of the federation? Shame on your conscience!
a vry wicked n clueless presidency God wil expose u all
This statement does not make any sense. We all know that IPOB is an indigenous organisation seeking for self determination.
It’s those faceless criminals that the government is obviously protecting that are supposed to be proscribed as terrorist, the Fulani herdsmen and their collaborators in the ruling government. We strongly request that the government prosecute those sponsors of Boko Haram and Fulani bandits.
It’s really insulting that the government is rehabilitating terrorist that are not even Nigerians. Well, God is watching.
