The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) on Sunday distanced itself from the second Biafra declaration in Finland.
IPOB described the declaration as a shambolic scam and a charade, stating that only the declaration made by the late Odimegwu Ojukwu can stand.
Emma Powerful, the spokesman for IPOB, disclosed this in a statement he signed.
He explained that IPOB’s mission is to restore the sovereignty of the declared Biafra Independence, which was forced to surrender through genocide by the Nigerian and British governments.
The statement reads: “The Noble family and movement of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), led by the great and indomitable leader, Mazi Nnamdi Okwuchukwu Kanu, wishes to disassociate ourselves from the purported Biafra second declaration by an infamous no-name group. The so-called declaration is a scam. There is no room for another Biafra declaration besides the one our eternal leader, Dim Odimegwu Ojukwu, declared in 1967.
“IPOB wishes to commend responsible media organizations and social media bloggers in Nigeria and the diaspora that didn’t give attention to the mockery of the Biafra struggle by infiltrators in Finland and elsewhere
