ONITSHA, Anambra, Nigeria – Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has disassociated itself from the activities and operations of Simon Ekpa and his group.
In a statement issued on Saturday , Publicity Secretary of IPOB, Emma Powerful said the group has been in existence before Simon Ekpa operations. According to powerful, Ekpa and group should stop associating themselves with the revered IPOB under the command of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.
“Simon Ekpa and his group are neither part of IPOB worldwide family nor do they subscribe to our operational methodology and people.
“Henceforth they and the general public are put on notice to desist from using the name of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, ESN and IPOB to defraud the unsuspecting public or for any of their activities. Ekpa and his group should stop their attempt to ridicule and debase the institutions our leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu sacrificed all to establish,” he said.
According to him since Ekpa does not want to abide by the ideals of IPOB, he should form his own group and pursue Biafra freedom the way he is convinced and stop attaching himself to the cherished name of IPOB.
He said that ,Simon Ekpa should know that those politicians sponsoring him and his group to demonise IPOB, ESN and Nnamdi KANU will soon abandon him and his sinister activities.
“We want his family, friends and associates who know him to advise him to leave IPOB out of his activities. Simon Ekpa, autopilot and Umuada highways in America should stop their attempt to tarnish the hallowed name of IPOB and its security arm the ESN established by Mazi Nnamdi Kanu to liberate our people from the bondage of Fulani terrorists nation called Nigeria” he said
Emma said that the purported Nollywood classroom unveiling of what was termed M.Branch was a folly taken too far which simply revealed the motive and the aganda of Simon Ekpa and his sponsors.
“The general public should stop associating IPOB with such Nollywood movies. We are confronted with very serious existential threat and cannot for any reason turn this noble cause of freedom and liberty of the Indigenous people of Biafra into a circus.
“These self-acclaimed autopilots without aeroplane should desist from creating the impression that they are part of this noble family led by Mazi Nnamdi Kanu because they are not.
“We are calling on European Union and the world to take note of anyone trying to use the name of IPOB to instigate crisis in our land
We want to clarify that M-Branch which these dissidents are claiming to be forming in a room somewhere, was commissioned by Mazi Nnamdi Kanu many years ago before launching ESN. IPOB’s M-Branch personnel do not have uniform. M -BRANCH is the IPOB international secret service . They are not in uniform Just as secret service people anywhere are not uniformed men. So, anybody claiming to be forming M-Branch with uniform is on his own.
M-BRANCH is a secret service in the ESN STRUCTURE created by MNK. No one has seen them before. They have no uniform and very few people actually know about their operations. So ask yourself why would anyone claim he has publicly launched an intelligence Unit in IPOB if such a person is not working sinisterly for a pay master in the pursuit of an evil agenda? People should be properly guided and not allow themselves to be scammed” he said.
