TIhe Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has called onk the Abia
\nCommissioner of Police, Mr Ene Okon against necessary use of the name of
\nits leader to curry favor from the federal government.<\/p>\n

The CP was quoted to have warned the IPOB members to steer clear of the
\nburial of the parents of their leader, Nnamdi Kanu, insisting that the
\npolice would not allow IPOB to participate in the burial.<\/p>\n

The pro-Biafran group, in a statement on Monday from the Media and
\nPublicity Secretary, Emma Powerful, accused the CP of championing the
\ncourse in anticipation of a reward to the rank of AIG after Kanu’s
\nparents’ burial.<\/p>\n

It reminded him of the threats by its leader during his radio address
\nlast Saturday to hunt down and kill his family members should any shot
\nbe fired within the burial area, advising him to retrace his steps to
\navoid regrets later.<\/p>\n

The statement partly reads: “It is now crystal clear to the general
\npublic that this caliphate servant in Nigeria Police uniform named CP
\nOkon supposedly in charge of Abia Police Command in Umuahia Abia state
\nwants to use the name of our most reverred leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and
\nindomitable IPOB worldwide to be noticed as the Fulani slave of the
\nmonth.<\/p>\n

“Last month it was Hope Uzodinma in Imo State, this month it is the turn
\nof Abia in the person of this Mr Okon. He is given to making these
\nirrelevant statements in order to advance his unremarkable career as the
\nobedient servant of the caliphate the same way other equally misguided
\nslaves in his position did before him.<\/p>\n

“He and his masters in Arewa arid lands of the north\u00a0 should be
\nthoroughly ashamed of themselves for threatening people attending a
\nfuneral service.<\/p>\n

“Such despicable and downright condemnable utterance can only obtain in
\nBiafraland where socio-cultural and political leadership are in the
\nhands of unrepentant traitors.<\/p>\n

“Will a commissioner of police make such a ridiculous statement in the
\nSharia north? Not even during the burial ceremony of countless murderous
\nFulani terrorists in the north did any police commissioner find it
\nworthy to warn mourners not to attend a funeral service.<\/p>\n

“In the sad history of Nigeria, never has there been an edict or warning
\nissued against those mourning the passing of loved ones only now in Abia
\nState. CP Okon is expecting his slave masters to reward him the rank of
\nAIG after the burial of our leader’s parents which we can assure him he
\nwill never get it.<\/p>\n

“As our leader expressly pronounced during his radio address on Saturday
\n8 February 2020, should any shot be fired in and around Afaraukwu on
\nFriday 14 February 2020, the family and children of CP Okon will be
\nhunted down and killed.<\/p>\n

“If Buratai is involved through his cowardly army that ran away from
\nBoko Haram in the north with their tails between their legs, is found
\nculpable his children will also pay the price anywhere they are in the
\nworld. We say enough is enough!<\/p>\n

“Before this Okon came, there were other loud mouthed southern police
\ncommissioners in Abia that sought to impress their Alimajiri masters by
\nmaking unedifying and unguarded utterances against our leader Mazi
\nNnamdi Kanu and the indomitable IPOB family.<\/p>\n

“The same way they sunk into oblivion is exactly the same way this
\ntalkertative imp will be quickly consigned to the scrapheap of used and
\ndiscarded unthinking caliphate servants from the south. He is not the
\nfirst and neither will he be the last. We wonder why these slaves to the
\nFulani people and their Caliphate in Sokoto reason negatively always.<\/p>\n

“IPOB is not in the business of responding to incompetent lowly ranked
\nofficers of a failed, shameless, uncivilised and discredited colonial
\ndisgrace like Nigeria.<\/p>\n

“IPOB is an international movement currently engaged in international
\ndiplomacy to drive home the need to put the long suffering ethnic
\nnationalities the British herded together into their failed experiment
\nin Nigeria out of the primitive stranglehold of the eternally backward
\nArewa core north.<\/p>\n

“These inconsequential and roundly incompetent local police and military
\noperatives blabbing away from a poorly maintained office in a
\ndelapidated building in Umuahia and Ohafia\u00a0 are not worthy of an
\nintelligent response from the great IPOB. We shall as always peacefully
\nattend the burial of His Royal Majesty and his wife and should Nigerian
\narmy and police attempt to breach the peace, the world will bear us
\nwitness.<\/p>\n

“However it is important we inform the Fulani masters of this Okon and
\nthose parading themselves as military officers in Afaraukwu Umuahia to
\nbeware because they cannot stop IPOB from coming to the burial of our
\nleader’s parents on 14th of February, next week Friday. Biafra is
\nresonating all over the world today especially thanks to our great
\nleader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB family worldwide.<\/p>\n

“All the years of threats and brutal crackdowns on IPOB have all
\nresulted in making IPOB more defiant, determined and ruthless in our
\npursuit of the noble goal of Biafra liberation. The recent statement in
\nthe Sun newspaper of the 8th of February 2020 attributed to this CP Okon
\nis something he will come to regret in time to come.<\/p>\n

“If the military might of the Alimajiri Nigerian north, grand conspiracy
\nof the judiciary and mind-numbing treachery of Igbo governors and
\nOhaneze Ndigbo could not stop IPOB, how much less an unknown Fulani
\nboy-boy and servant in police uniform in Umuahia”.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
