The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has fired back at Southeast governors over their resolution to put an end to any form of lockdown in the region.
IPOB spokesman, Emma Powerful, said its the Pro-Biafra group that can stop sit-at-home order and not the governors.
This is coming in reaction to the meeting held by Southeast leaders, wherein they resolved to end sit-at-home orders in their region.
Speaking with DAILY POST, Powerful said: “South-East governors cannot stop the wishes of the people because they have failed the masses and sit-at-home is the only way our people show their displeasure and that they are tired of Nigeria and its security brutality in our territory. South-East governors have no stand to stop it.

“IPOB can only stop sit-at-home because they initiated it. We stopped Monday sit-at-home because we found out the implications on our people, but the Nigerian Government and their politicians hijacked it and killed people to implicate IPOB worldwide. Very soon, they will understand how we will handle it because we have discovered all their antics and gimmicks. IPOB will not allow that to continue.

“So South-East governors cannot do anything unless IPOB and the public do. We still stand on no more Monday sit-at-home and anybody enforcing it is not IPOB. They will get their reward soon; our people should stop Monday sit-at-home because IPOB has stopped it openly, and we are not going back on that. Last Monday, Hope Uzodinma recruited some hoodlums who were attacking people in the name of IPOB in order to implicate us as a violent group which is not and that attack was not from IPOB security.”
