Anambra Nov. 18 election: IPOB insists on lockdown

ITRealms:

The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has insisted to lockdown Anambra State on November 18 to ensure that Ndi Anambra do not participate actively in the forthcoming governorship election, reports ITRealms.

This is coming as a group of Anambra Progressives have warned IPOB to stay away from the state and its territory, noting that what is required at this moment is restructuring of the entire country to enthrone good governance for all and in alignment with the last wishes of the Dim Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu, the former Biafran leader.

Also, this is on the wake of a video making a round that IPOB members were never directed to be killed by Gov. Willie Obiano.

However, IPOD Media in a press statement twist made available to ITRealms maintained that Anambra would be locked down on 18th November, claiming that their leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu has not endorsed Obiano's second term.

“We don't believe in verbal fight with any individual or group but waiting for the appointed day for action. IPOB under Nnamdi Kanu cannot participate in any other Nigeria elections throughout Biafraland not only Anambra State,” said Comrade Emma who claimed to be IPOB spokesman.

According to him, “It is dangerous and appalling on the side of Obiano, but the spirit of those massacred in cold blood in Nkpor will continue to haunt anybody who did not condemn the barbaric acts.”

Comrade Emma said on Anambra election, that IPOB realized that Governor Obiano's internet bloggers and those he described as e-Rats, are twisting what Mazi Kanu said during his visit to Eze Eri kingdom, and precisely about the killing of IPOB members at Nkpor on 29th and 30th of May 2016, during the remembrance of heroes and heroines who were massacred between 1967 and 1970.

Further, IPOB alleged that Arewa elders had mandated the so-called Igbo elders and some politicians to disown Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB openly for selfish aggrandizement, insisting they cannot intimidate IPOB under Mazi Nnamdi Kanu leadership.
