The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has alleged that Fulani herdsmen attacked some communities in Enugu State while governorship election was going on in Anambra State.
The Pro-Biafra group, however, said that the attack was repelled by its militia outfit, the Eastern Security Network, ESN.
Emma Powerful, spokesman of IPOB assured people of the Southeast that ESN would not allow Fulani terrorists to occupy the region.
According to a statement issued on Sunday by Emma Powerful, spokesman of IPOB: “While the election in Anambra State was going on the enemies deployed terrorists disguising as herdsmen to Enugu State to attack unsuspecting Biafrans but the vigilance of our ESN operatives paid off as these agents of death and sorrow were repelled.

“The enemies and their sponsors thought they could take us unawares but unfortunately for them, our gallant ESN operatives keep vigil over the entire Biafra land 24 hours.
“No matter how hard they try we will not allow any inch of Biafra land to be invaded by terrorists again. Never again shall ESN and IPOB allow Biafran women and girls to be raped by uncircumcised terrorists. We shall continue to defend our ancestral land no matter the price!
“We warn the sponsors of these jihadists and their foot soldiers to stop wasting their time because no part of Biafra land will be occupied by terrorists.
