Pro-Biafra group, Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has challenged the Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta, MEND, over its position that the embattled IPOB leader, Nnamdi Kanu will reach an agreement with the Federal Government and abandon the Biafra cause.
In a statement issued by Chika Edoziem on behalf of the group, the group said:
The MOVEMENT FOR THE ENSLAVEMENT OF THE NIGER DELTA is obviously in denial of the purpose for which it was set up. As its name aptly illustrates this movement is a group of merchants whose stock in trade is to sell the birth right of the Biafran people in the mainland and the riverine areas for a pot of porridge. The MOVEMENT FOR THE ENSLAVEMENT OF THE NIGER DELTA has no idea what freedom fighting is all about neither does it have inkling of what honor entails. This movement is back to what it does best having obviously exhausted the blood money they made through kidnappings, murder and accepting amnesty from their slave masters for the crimes they committed against Biafran people.
Wonders shall never end. How can the MOVEMENT FOR THE ENSLAVEMENT OF THE NIGER DELTA ever imagine that the Indigenous People of Biafra led by “Onyendu” Mazi Nnamdi Kanu will throw its honor to the dogs by allowing itself and its honorable objective of securing the freedom of the Biafran people be tainted by group of murderers and self acclaimed criminals?
The indigenous people of Biafra IPOB under the leadership of “Onyendu” Mazi Nnamdi Kanu is a movement propelled by a clear ideology and the quest for the restoration of the sovereignty of Biafran Nation CANNOT I repeat CANNOT be compromised, CANNOT be watered down in any form or shape and CANNOT be exchanged by your so called “freedom”. The indigenous people of Biafra IPOB have seen groups like you who masquerade as champions of the interest of the Biafran people but are in reality instruments at the hands of the enemy.
It is very obvious from their paid advert that the MOVEMENT FOR THE ENSLAVEMENT OF THE NIGER DELTA has no clue of what the indigenous people of Biafra IPOB under the leadership of “Onyendu” Mazi Nnamdi Kanu is all about. We are not a secret society. Transparency is our watchword we do not enter into secret agreements or negotiations with acclaimed criminals and enemies of the Biafran people.
The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) led by “Onyendu” Mazi Nnamdi Kanu will not allow itself to be distracted by irritating house flies and publicity seeking agents of enslavement of the Biafra people. Our focus is total freedom of our people from the contraption called Nigeria, our objective is the restoration of the sovereignty of the Biafran nation and our determination is set in stone.
