On Wednesday, the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) warned Southeast governors about the killings carried out by the Ebubeagu security group in the area.
Governors in the Southeast have been warned by IPOB not to use Ebubeagu to murder residents there.
IPOB spokesman Emma Powerful urged Southeast governors to put an end to state-sponsored killings of young people in the region.
A statement by Powerful reads partly: “The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, is advising all the South East Governors against the killing of our people in the region. The Eastern Governors must stop the killing of our people using imported Ebubeagu and Fulani terrorists in uniforms in the region. It’s high time Eastern Governors stopped all these state-sponsored killings of our youths. They will all be held responsible for the senseless killings going on in due time.
“The South East governors are busy popping champagne and conspiring with the Nigeria DSS, Army, Fulani-controlled Ebubeagu, and others in the daily killing of our innocent youths in the name of looking for the so-called unknown gunmen whom they, the politicians, set up for political reasons and also in the name of looking for ESN who are busy protecting our mothers and fathers farming in the bushes and forests of Biafra land; while their counterparts in the North are busy protecting the real terrorists that have been killing people in thousands including the Army and other Nigeria security agents and giving them chieftaincy titles and political positions.
“This is why the Caliphate has no regard for most of the politicians and Elders from South East because they are betrayers and killers of their own people. We want the South East Governors to know that they are responsible and will be held accountable in the future for all the senseless killings of our people by the imported Nigeria security agents and Ebubeagu militias.”
