Herders Crisis: IPOB Bans Open Grazing In South East

The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) on Monday said the activities of itinerant herdsmen which allows for open grazing have now been prohibited in the south east.

In a statement on Monday by Nnamdi Kanu, IPOB leader, the separatist group said the Eastern Security Network (ESN), its security arm, will begin the enforcement of the ban and implementation of the anti-grazing law in the region in a fortnight.

As gathered by EKO HOT BLOG, he proscribed group said the move was imperative to check the activities of killer herdsmen, adding that those who ran foul of the law would see its wrath.

“If you are one of the #Zoo animals suffering from an advanced form of Stockholm syndrome, may it kill you there. We in the East are not, have never been and can never be slaves to any bunch of retards. Ask the British,” it said.

“We won’t tolerate any iota of killer Fulani herdsmen menace in the East. You may be comfortable with your wretched Fulanised existence where you are but we won’t live with that rubbish in the land of the Rising Sun. Where were you when our people were being slaughtered, raped and kidnapped in Isiukwuato?

“In less than two weeks, #ESN will commence the full enforcement of Nigeria’s Anti-Grazing Law in the East. Turn into a cow then and see what shall become of you. You are about to understand how determined we are. You have the temerity to talk about monopoly of violence?”

The group said the days when it approached international and regional bodies to complain about the injustice meted out its had gone.

It also give governors in the restive region a 14-day ultimatum to enforce the anti-grazing law.

“The era of Biafrans crying and lamenting to EU and UN has come and gone. The Dragon Flag has been raised! If you don’t know what it means, go and ask.

“Yap all you like, there is no going back. You #Zoo animals are about to witness the type of madness you never knew existed.”
