We Have Not Declared No Election In Anambra – IPOB Insists

• The group said it was preoccupied with the restoration a Biafra Republic

The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) says it has not called for a boycott of the governorship election in Anambra State.

The Media and Publicity Secretary of the secessionist group, Emma Powerful stated this in a press release issued in Awka, Anambra State on Monday.

He said for now the group was preoccupied with the restoration of a Biafra republic.

It said, “It is important to note that contrary to speculations, IPOB has not officially declared ‘no election in Anambra State’. Our preoccupation is Biafra restoration. Anybody equating IPOB strategy with Boko Haram terrorists, bandits and Fulani herdsmen is ignorant and mischievous.

“Contrary to the vomit by of some inconsequential fellows, IPOB has no plans to attack South Easterners and South Southerners.

“In the first place, violence is not part of our philosophy. Assuming we want to resort to violence, how can we attack our people whom we are fighting for?

“It does not make any sense. But we know their motive for peddling this falsehood as our intelligent report confirm the importation and stockpiling of arms from Pakistan for their planned invasion of Biafraland but we are waiting for them.

“We are so astonished that a terrorist like Shekau without surname will be the one telling Biafran people to hate their own while he and his kinsmen openly protect their own terrorists and bandits maiming and killing them in the entire Northern region.”
