It is another deceptive way to attract global attention so as to justify their premeditated launching of full military assault on innocent Biafrans.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Nigerian security agencies coordinated those high profile attacks in tandem with a few treacherous politicians and their sponsored gangs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe attacks were the numerous ways Nigeria government is working hard to blackmail and demonize IPoB for seeking legal referendum but we will continue to expose them. We have trusted intelligence officers in our M-Branch, who always nip their nefarious plans and activities in the bud.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTill date, Nigerian\u00a0 government has not come up with any investigation or\u00a0 report regarding the attacks on those politicians because it is difficult to produce concocted report against IPoB as usual. Nigeria government and its security agencies knew they were behind the devilish attacks on those Igbo politicians and that is why they refused to carry out any investigation.<\/p><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\n\u201cWhy has Nigeria government and its security agencies refused to make public what happened to their colleagues at Umunze in Anambra State last week?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe killing of the soldiers in Anambra State last week was another State sponsored attack to implicate IPoB and ESN. The desperate government of Nigeria is willing to sacrifice some soldiers lives just to blackmail IPIPoB and have a reason to disobey UN Working Group\u2019s order to release our leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur intelligence unit the M-Branch intercepted them planning and carrying out these heinous crimes in our territory to implicate ESN and IPoB, volunteers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Nigerian Federal government sponsored some State Governors, particularly those of Ebonyi\u00a0 and Imo States to kill their constituents. As if their political slaves are not doing enough to heighten the insecurity in the South East, they have now metamorphosed into using Nigeria security agents to carry out these attacks.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIPoB intelligence unit, the M-Branch intercepted the plan where Nigeria she Charity agents were planning to attack politicians, businessmen, religious leaders, traditional rulers, and PGs and blame it on IPOB family members.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are therefore, advising Biafrans especially politicians and businessmen to provide themselves adequate security because the Nigerian Federal Government may end up assassinating some of them in a bid to blackmail IPoB.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIPoB is out to protect our people and not to kill them and we will remain so until Biafra freedom is totally achieved.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"yj6qo\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Indigenous\u00a0People of Biafra, IPoB yesterday, accused the Federal Government of Nigeria of being responsible for the failed assassination of Senator Ifeanyi Uba, and Chris Azubogu.
