Global Conspiracy Against Biafra: Misinformation, False Narrative Against IPOB’s Peaceful Self-Determination Quest

Global Conspiracy Against Biafra:  Misinformation, False Narrative Against IPOB’s Peaceful Self-Determination Quest 

It is already far established that there has been a global conspiracy against Biafra’s quest for self-determination. Today, some western media platforms, namely Reuters and Jerusalem Post published a false, bogus report concerning the South-East, IPOB, Biafra and the Sit-at-home orders, observations and its impacts. 

The alleged investigative report in question was conducted by a shadowy "private” intelligence consultancy firm, SBM Intelligence, which in all candor has deep ties with the Nigerian government, military and most definitely, its State Secret Services – DSS. 

It is no coincidence that this report was made public just four days to the highly anticipated Biafra Heroes Day, May 30th, 2025, a day which has been designated in honor of victims of the genocidal Biafra war of 1967-70. Amidst verbal counteraction remarks between the IPOB movement and the Chief of the National Intelligence Agency (NIA) Nuhu Ribadu, over the status of forthcoming Biafra commemoration day and how the people of the Biafra region reckons with it. 

There is no doubt that order for a voluntary sit-at-home observed was issued by the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB)movement, and as has been evidently proven in the past unenforced, before the era when trojan horse operations to discredit the legitimate quest for Biafra self-determination, its suppressed image and that of the IPOB movement. This era was after the kidnap and extraordinary rendition of the IPOB leader by the Nigerian government.

The 30th May Biafra anniversary as initiated by the IPOB movement since 2014, was always peaceful as citizens would either hold non-violent processions and memorial events on such day, however security forces would move in for mass crackdowns and killings. For instance in 2016, the Nigerian military and police carried out series of brutal massacre of the Indigenous People of Biafra protesters across the East, an extrajudicial execution spree led by the Nigerian army, in which over 150 peaceful pro-Biafra protesters, carrying only placards and flags to raise awareness of the ongoing marginalization of their rights and freedoms, were massacred. 

Additionally, more than 28 people were killed in an attack on Mazi Nnamdi Kanu’s ancestral home, where he hosted numerous visitors and supporters. Family members perished in this extrajudicial attack. 

Infact, the sit-at-home order was the latest improvised strategy by the IPOB movement to minimize crackdowns casualties during such days and events.

Yet, SBM Intelligence produced no reports detailing this daylight massacre of innocent civilians in the East. Despite being founded in 2013, a year after IPOB’s establishment, SBM Intelligence appeared to lack the “intelligence” to expose the unlawful massacre of indigenous peoples across the East by federal security agencies, for committing no crime known to law.

In this report as acknowledged by Reuters and the Jerusalem Post, confirmed that the IPOB leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu had already canceled the sit-at-home order, initially drawn up as a protest against his continued unlawful detention and rendition. The report acknowledged that IPOB lifted the sit-at-home order in 2021 shortly after its commencement. Why, then, does the media falsely claim that the alleged 600 deaths since 2021, are a result of IPOB’s sit-at-home orders? 

The gross contradiction in the reports of SBM Intelligence and collaborative media like Reuters, the Jerusalem Post, and probable other western media platforms are evidently dubious and reeks of journalistic unprofessionalism. It is like turning off the journalism purview and instincts of cross referencing every piece and fact pertaining a story or could it be that these media platforms failed to thoroughly study the SBM report and went on to publish them with its brazen contradictive flaws? 

The SBM report failed to acknowledge that IPOB has consistently stated it has never enforced sit-at-home orders and that compliance has always been voluntary. However, it aimed at linking the Eastern Security Network (ESN)– the vigilante wing set up by IPOB to solely confront the Fulani killer herdsmen in the Eastern region – of alleged sit-at-home enforcements. Meanwhile, the SBM report acknowledged that the ESN as publicly stated by IPOB was established solely to halt terrorist incursions in the East and protect lives and property in the region. 

IPOB and the ESN are innocent of these allegations propagated by Nigeria’s kakistocratic government, whose legacy is marked by violations of fundamental human rights, extrajudicial killings of indigenous peoples, and conspiracy of ethnic cleansing carried out by Islamic terror groups from the Sahel and these acts are encouraged by complacency and dubious positions of the West and its media platforms. 

IPOB has consistently distanced itself from the sit-at-home enforcements/enforcers and asserted that it is the Nigerian government sponsoring the violent enforcements to blackmail the IPOB movement and the ESN. 

Suffice to say, that none of the western mainstream media houses who are now taking swipe at the IPOB movement, right from the Nigerian government's playbook cared to come down to the South-East to conduct an on-site independent investigation to corroborate or debunk the claims of the IPOB movement, but are buying and spreading a well packaged government propaganda against the victimized and oppressed. 

IPOB is a peaceful self-determination seeking organization grounded in the principles of human dignity and the rights of indigenous peoples to choose their preferred religious, cultural, political, and economic governance. And, most importantly it has no faction whatsoever. 

And, obviously this report by SBM Intelligence is nothing but desperate attempts by the Nigerian NIA director and his ilks, to discredit and defame the forthcoming Biafra heroes commemoration and anniversary, because the violent sit-at-home enforcements in the South-East has so far died down since last year when its chief architect in Finland was apprehended by Finnish authorities for his terrorism against South-East residents.

Sadly, the only people buying and even marketing these state-sponsored preposterous narratives are those readily parade themselves as reputable, credible and the global go-to source for information. However, the truth shall prevail and be made known regardless of how deep the conspiracy to suppress it runs.

SBM Intelligence, Reuters And Nuhu Ribadu’s Hatchet Job Against IPOB: A Failed Propaganda War

SBM Intelligence, Reuters And Nuhu Ribadu’s Hatchet Job Against IPOB: A Failed Propaganda War

 

IPOB PRESS STATEMENT

DATE 26th MAY 2025

 

The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) under the supreme leadership of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu categorically and unequivocally condemns in the strongest terms possible the latest hatchet job disguised as a “report” released by a faceless, compromised, and government-sponsored propaganda arm called SBM Intelligence, and amplified by the neo-colonial media outfit, Reuters, all under the shameful direction of Nigeria’s National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu.

 

This laughable fabrication alleges that IPOB’s Sit-at-Home actions resulted in 776 deaths and trillions in economic losses. This is not just a lie—it is a desperate concoction by a drowning regime grasping at straws. SBM Intelligence is neither credible nor neutral; it is a mercenary outfit created to launder the image of failed regimes and discredit voices demanding justice and self-determination. Their so-called reports are fit only for the trash can of history, not the pages of reputable journalism.

 

We challenge SBM Intelligence, Reuters, and Nuhu Ribadu: if you possess an ounce of evidence linking IPOB to these baseless allegations, take it to court. Mazi Nnamdi Kanu is in detention and ready to confront these lies with unassailable truth. Instead of sponsoring international smear campaigns, why not test your fantasy before a judge?

 

Let it be known and recorded that IPOB officially canceled Monday Sit-at-Home in 2021, and our leader publicly disowned any individual or group enforcing such orders. Therefore, any attack attributed to a “Sit-at-Home” cannot be logically or factually linked to IPOB. This makes the SBM/Reuters report not only false but criminally deceptive.

 

The timing of this publication is no coincidence. As 30th May Biafra Heroes Day approaches—a sacred day for Biafrans to honour our martyrs—this corrupt regime, through its rented outlets, seeks to deflect attention from its failures and sabotage our remembrance. This is the same Nigeria that could not stop genocidal attacks from Taraba to Zamfara but is fixated on demonizing IPOB, a peaceful movement seeking justice and freedom.

 

We are not ignorant of history. When Biafra stood alone against the might of the global powers—Communist East, Capitalist West, and Islamic Jihadists from Egypt and across the Arab world—we survived because our cause is righteous and ordained by God. This propaganda blitz is but a whimper compared to the bombs of the 1967–70 genocide. It shall fail too.

 

Let Reuters know that by allowing itself to be used by Nuhu Ribadu and his gang of discredited Abuja plotters, it has traded its journalistic integrity for blood money. Let SBM Intelligence know they will forever remain irrelevant outside the corridors of Nigerian state-sponsored deceit. Let the Nigerian government know this: No amount of lies, no amount of sponsored reports, no amount of colonial echo chambers will stop the march of Biafra.

 

On 30th May, the world will see a region stand still in honour of our fallen heroes. We are undeterred, unshaken, and unstoppable. Our allegiance is to the truth, and the truth is that Biafra must come.

 

COMRADE EMMA POWERFUL MEDIA AND PUBLICITY SECRETARY FOR IPOB.

Deflating The Lies, Misinformation Of David Hundeyin At 'African Stream'

Deflating The Lies, Misinformation Of David Hundeyin At 'African Stream'

It is a common tactic for beneficiaries of corrupt systems to fiercely defend its flawed constructs. Mr. David Hundeyin, has again commenced his sly but subtly antics to twist narratives. This time he has extended his misinformation gimmicks and may have deceptively convinced some Pan-Africanist online media outlets like the  "African Stream" to spread and purvey these false narratives and propaganda. 

Thus, it is critical to correct the false impressions being spread by Mr. Hundeyin or even the African Stream about the Biafra quest for self-determination, the IPOB movement and its leader spearheading it and their motives. 

First, Biafra does not represent a Zionist ideology. It was an ideology borne out of necessity for survival following acts of ethnically inspired mass extermination. Suffice to say, that over 75% of Biafrans, and more extensively the entire Southern Nigeria are Christians, forming the majority of the population. 

The Biafran ideology is not a recent phenomenon. Biafra existed for nearly three years (1967-70), before it was brutally starved into submission by the Nigerian federal government in early 1970.  And, it is on historical record that many nations including the United Kingdom, Israel, USSR, USA, some Sahel and Arab countries etc had in one way or another, overt or covert, participated in the political and interests-based conspiracy against Biafra. So, there was no religious motive behind the Biafra ideology from its rootstock, just survival and the collective of a deserted and abandoned people to thrive. 

Sadly, the question which the "African Stream" and their source, Mr. Hundeyin, failed or refused to address in the view of the global African audience was what sparked the Biafran quest for independence in the first instance or what spurred it roughly 50 years later, instead they choose to deceptively write off as "Zionist agenda" as it is more convenient to do and also to hinder people especially people of the global South to take historical lessons or research on what prompted the Nigeria-Biafra debacle which has endured till date. 

That detailed answer which they, consciously have failed to provide is what we shall painstakingly do in this piece. 

Now, Biafra’s pursuit for freedom and sovereignty from British-amalgamated Nigeria, emerged as the Nigeria state from inception in 1914 to post-independence thrived on the subjugation, marginalization, and exploitation of the people of the Eastern region which would later became Biafra, the height of it was the massacre, pogroms of 1966 which led to the inevitable declaration of Biafra, a year later after talks and diplomatic efforts salvage the situation failed.

The unlawful, vindictive massacre of innocent citizens from the East across the north and western region of Nigeria, the extrajudicial execution of their citizens who served diligently in the Nigerian army anchored on the fabricated narrative surrounding the first coup on January 1966 as an ethnically motivated coup, were all catalysts which led to the secession of the Republic of Biafra. 

Suffice to say, that the anniversary to honor the birth of Biafra happens to be in this month of May, on the 30th which was the actual date when the former military governor of the eastern region, Dim Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu declared independence after receiving unanimous mandate from the Eastern consultative assembly which hosted all the ethnic groups of the eastern region on 27th May 1967.

That declaration would later lead to what became the Biafra genocide, as the Nigeria government alongside its allies were not far behind the Biafrans, whom were in the most unmistakable terms, forced to leave in the first place. 

Thus, the Biafra Heroes day, is vital day designated to reflect on those who sacrificed their lives for our freedom—those who were killed, butchered, and starved into submission. 

Now, to contemporary times. The resurgence of the quest for Biafra self-determination and advent of pro-independence movement, like the Indigenous People of Biafra(IPOB), all boiled down to the historical injustices of how the Biafrans were treated, the promises of acceptance upon surrender which were never kept and the marginalization which followed for decades. That gave birth to the recent agitation for Biafra as quite rightly noted by Mr. Hundeyin. 

Secondly, Mr. Hundeyin acknowledged that there has been religious motivated violence against communities in the north and middlebelt, but he failed to reveal those behind this religious violence. He also failed to say that the Fulani herdsmen and other terrorist groups such as the Boko Haram has the backings from the Nigerian security and political apparatus itself, evidence of these are bound. There are ex-military, senior staffs, servicemen coming forward to give account of collusion and deep polarization of Nigeria security architecture. 

Thankfully, the security challenges posed by either ethnic or Islamic extremists or even both, is not a problem confined to Nigeria alone. It is a regional broader security challenges across the West African region particularly in the Sahel region, and the Sahelians especially the indigenous peoples in the AES are in a better position to corroborate or even independently tell the global African audience if there is an ethnic jihad interchangeably masqueraded as a religious one against indigenous populations across west Africa. 

Thirdly, the political ideology for Biafra under the IPOB movement is a peaceful one and has stayed so since inception, notwithstanding heavy extrajudicial crackdowns by the Nigerian state, acknowledged even by the most biased and prejudicial human rights institutions such as Amnesty International. 

The IPOB leader was arrested in 2015 for professing his rights to political self-determination and asking for a UN supervised referendum, he was detained for 2 years and granted bail, until he was designated for assassination by the Nigerian military, a plot which failed but over 28 innocent civilians were killed, luckily for Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, he escaped into exile. 

However, four years later the Nigerian government broke all known local and international laws to not only kidnap him, but to extraordinarily rendition to Nigeria from Kenya. An act that has attracted so much local and international condemnation. Mr. David Hundeyin won’t speak about that because it won’t favoure his lies. 

Nnamdi Kanu has been on trial and on many occasions either his release or his innocence has been ordered by the Nigerian judiciary itself, but the federal government has proven adamant to these rulings by competent courts and continue to incarcerate him. 

Mr Hundeyin failed to acknowledge these but instead choose to blindside the African audience with an insidiously clipped off an audio broadcast of the IPOB leader, made specifically to the Nigerian youths whom were being hunted and killed by their own police and military during the EndSARS protests, something relative to the Arab spring or even the most recent #RejectFinancialBill mass protests in Kenya. 

The intervention of global bodies or influential nations in times of crisis especially on humanitarian grounds maybe a downside but in some cases are necessary. If not, Mr. Hundeyin would not have participated in the research team which its findings allegedly led to the designation of Nigeria "as a country of particular concern" by the United States during president Trump first administration, a clause that only be invoked when there is an evident sign of religious repression. And, as all may recall were promising results though they were short-lived.

Nevertheless, while the outspoken or lobby activities of Mr Michael Rubin and his AEI institute are acceptable and applaudable especially on humanitarian grounds about the vices being faced by Christians in Nigeria either in the north, south or middlebelt, there is no political connection or corroboration of his stance about Biafra self-determination with the IPOB movement, let alone connecting him and Mr. Simon Ekpa whom has been certified of being a Nigerian state sponsored agent provocateur sent to bring chaos and poison the genuine quest for Biafra self-determination, to IPOB.  And as per the laws of Finland, he Simon Ekpa is being prosecuted for his crimes against the people of Eastern Nigeria. 

Make no mistakes, Mr. Simon Ekpa is no lieutenant of the IPOB leader, as Mr. Hundeyin claimed. Mazi Nnamdi Kanu though a revolutionary, is no violent criminal who have ordered or condoned any attack on innocent civilians. If not, he would have been convicted over his 10 years of legal tussle in the Nigerian judiciary facing of the federal government on alleged charges of treason and terrorism.

Mr. Hundeyin and the African/global audience who may have listened to his story and poised to believe it, should be advised that the resources in Nigeria, which Mr. Hundeyin dearly emphasizes upon, is in no other exploitative hands other than the United States and its allies consisting of the collective West. The resources of Nigeria which is the commonwealth of the people has never been used in favour of its rightful owners and that is particularly the Nigerian population squeaks in abject poverty and penury. 

And, that is also what the quest for Biafra self-determination is determined to change: A sovereignty to guarantee that the resources and potentials, human and mineral, within its soil and borders will be used for the socioeconomic advancements and development of its people. 

How Biafra or her people wishes to utilize these resources or who they conduct business with it, be it from the East, West, North or South is strictly her business as long as her national interests are not jeopardized, and extensively as long as her eternal commitments to true Pan-Africanisn, which has been demonstrated beyond doubts, are not compromised.

Amnesty International Turns A Global Hypocrite, Fueling Nigerian State Propaganda

Amnesty International Turns A Global Hypocrite, Fueling Nigerian State Propaganda

At last, Amnesty International have join the que, exposing their real and ugly essence; a biased, unprincipled organization masquerading as a human rights watchdog.

In their recent statement dated May 9, 2025, Amnesty rushed to condemn the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) and Eastern Security Network (ESN) over the tragic incident that occurred along the Okigwe-Owerri road in Imo State. With no investigation, no verified facts, no credible reports, Amnesty immediately echoed the Nigeria government’s narrative, shamelessly accusing IPOB/ESN of the crime. This is not human rights advocacy. This is reckless propaganda and it is dangerous.

Amnesty International claims to defend the rule of law and due process, yet it finds no contradiction in issuing a global statement that brands a group guilty of mass murder before any investigation has begun. What evidence did Amnesty rely on? None presented. What source confirmed the attackers’ identity? None disclosed. Just the lazy, worn-out phrase: “allegedly carried out by IPOB/ESN." If IPOB is always the go-to suspect, why bother with investigations at all? Why pretend to care about justice when your mind is already made up?

If international law requires prompt and impartial investigations, why then did Amnesty violate that same principle with its biased declaration?

Amnesty have maintained a disturbing silence on the daily atrocities visited upon the people of Southeast Nigeria by the Nigerian military. From aerial bombardments in Orlu and Ebonyi to house-to-house raids in Owerri, from mass arrests of innocent youths to enforced disappearances.  

Amnesty’s lips are sealed. When hundreds of IPOB members are jailed without trial for merely flying a flag or attending a rally, Amnesty issues weak, buried reports with no urgency. This is a baffling pattern that has continued until now that Amnesty is truly out with their true intent —  conveniently blaming IPOB, writing thunderous press releases, and amplifing Nigeria government propaganda to the world. This double standard is not just shameful, it is wicked. It emboldens a murderous regime and dehumanizes an entire population.

Let us ask the hard question Amnesty refuses to ask: Who benefits from this violence? IPOB has publicly renounced criminal violence. Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, the illegally detained IPOB leader has repeatedly called for peaceful resistance and a referendum. Yet, any act of mayhem in the Southeast is swiftly blamed on IPOB/ESN no matter the circumstances.

There are rising allegations of false-flag operations  attacks orchestrated by Nigerian security agents and their sponsored militias to justify crackdowns on Biafra. Why is Amnesty not investigating this? Why does Amnesty ignore eyewitness reports that contradict government claims? Why does every bomb dropped by the Nigerian military come with Amnesty’s silence, but every false allegation against IPOB gets a headline?

Let the world not be deceived. The campaign of terror in Nigeria is not being waged by IPOB, it is rather being waged against the movement. It is a campaign of silence, detention, torture, humiliation, and extermination. IPOB has been the scapegoat, the Southeast is the slaughterhouse, the Nigeria government is the butcher, and Amnesty International is the silent partner in crime.

If Amnesty still have a shred of credibility, they must publicly retract their hasty and baseless accusation. They must open a truly independent international investigation into the Okigwe-Owerri incident  and into the systematic military atrocities in the Southeast. Amnesty must apologize to the victims they have ignored and to the people they have helped demonize.

Until then, Amnesty International should stop pretending to be neutral. They should admit what they have become — a selective voice, bought by convenience, and blind to truth. The blood of innocent Biafrans cries not just against the Nigeria state  but against those global institutions whose silence and slander have become instruments of oppression.

Unite Across All Faction In Six Months Or Risk Losing Relevance In Ndi Igbo Affairs — IPOB Charges Ohaneze

Unite Across All Faction In Six Months Or Risk Losing Relevance In Ndi Igbo Affairs — IPOB Charges Ohaneze 

The Indigenous People Of Biafra (IPOB) movement has taken a swipe at the Ohanaeze Ndigbo sociocultural group for not upholding the obligations expected of it and allowing itself to be divided by external forces and used for selfish political ulterior agenda against the interests of Ndigbo, vowing to no longer tolerate the irresponsibility of the Ohanaeze Ndigbo. 

In a statement issued by the IPOB media and publicity secretary, Comrade Emma Powerful, the movement decried the divisiveness and docility of the Ohanaeze Ndigbo, charging them to mend fences amongst factions and provide a consensual leader of all divides within six months. 

The statement cited the recently concluded Ohanaeze Ndigbo president-general elections where three contestants were declared winners by their respective factions as the height of lack of organizational discipline and coordination in the Ohanaeze Ndigbo, alluding that the Ohanaeze Ndigbo has been hijacked by politicians in the South-East and the federal government. 

"The global family and movement of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) worldwide has called on the Ohaneze Ndigbo Social Cultural Group to tell Ndigbo, who is their authentic President General worldwide."

"The unfortunate turn of events in the last Ohaneze Ndigbo's election where three(3) Igbo sons from Ikwere land in Rivers State  claimed to have been elected as the Ohaneze Ndigbo President General is of serious concern to all." 

"Senator Azubuike Azuta Mbata, Barr. Dim Uche Okwukwu and Jack Omenazu were all declared winners from different factions of Ohaneze Ndigbo. We call on Ohaneze Ndigbo members to rally together and reach a consensus on who the President General of Ohaneze Ndigbo is." 

"We call on Ohaneze Ndigbo members to mend their fences with their many factions and present to Ndigbo a consensus  President General or risk being relegated to the background in the affairs of Ndigbo worldwide. IPOB and its leader Mazi Nnamdi KANU will not allow Ohaneze Ndigbo to operate in this form." 

"IPOB has followed the activities of Ohaneze Ndigbo in the last 8 years and found out that the Ohaneze Ndigbo group has been hijacked and polarized by the Nigerian government and their proxy actors, Igbo governors and other Igbo politicians." 

"The various factions that exist in Ohanaeze Ndigbo today are because of the overbearing influence from the Nigerian government via their proxy Igbo politicians,"the statement read in part. 

According to IPOB, the Ohaneze Ndigbo should have replaced the defunct Igbo Union of 1945 in representing and discharging the sociocultural responsibilities to the Igbo nation but failed to do so as a result of political hijacking and polarization. Thus, vowed to intervene if leadership sanctity is not restored in Ohaneze Ndigbo in the next six months. 

"IPOB and its leader Mazi Nnamdi KANU thought Ohaneze Ndigbo Social Cultural group would have replaced the Igbo union of 1945.

"But, it is very sad that Ohaneze Ndigbo has turned to a political group instead of a social cultural group that ought to defend Igbo interest on every level. This sad development has made Ohaneze Ndigbo a stooge to the state governors and other politicians who work for the Fulani government of Nigeria. The Ohaneze Ndigbo has lost her voice to speak the truth to powers." 

"Therefore, IPOB calls on the Igbo Elders Forum, Igbo Traditional Rulers, responsible politicians, religious leaders, Ohaneze Ndigbo Youth Leaders, and so on to intervene in this matter." 

"The factionalization tactics that the Nigerian government and her proxy Igbo politicians tried to create in IPOB without success, they have successfully carried out in Ohanaeze Ndigbo. The responsible members of Ohaneze Ndigbo must fight to rescue themselves. If possible, they (Ohaneze Ndigbo) should organize another open and transparent election among the three people concerned." 

"If Ohaneze Ndigbo members fail to resolve their election dispute peacefully, it means they are incapable of speaking for Ndigbo. IPOB might be forced to take drastic decisions against Ohaneze Ndigbo and their activities in Biafra Land."

"IPOB is waiting and hoping that the Ohaneze Ndigbo will, within six months, resolve their leadership quagmire, or they will lose their relevance."

EXPOSED: The Dubious Connection Between Stealing Of Public Fund With Impunity And Being A Government Agent

EXPOSED: The Dubious Connection Between Stealing Of Public Fund With Impunity And Being A Government Agent

Those who have foresight and the capability to see beyond public rhetoric can take key points in every happenings and  understand well enough that VeryDarkMan has demonstrated a lack of integrity and sincerity in his public dealings. A closer look at his social engagements, can reveal clearly that his actions are characterized by duplicity and insincerity from the outset.

It comes as no surprise that VeryDarkMan has recently begun revealing elements of his possibly scripted agenda—an agenda likely designed by the Nigerian government to misinform his followers about the insecurity in the southeastern region of the country. 

Ndigbo may have forgotten how the clout-chaser gained social media recognition through attacking and targeting them using his social media platform. This is happening in Nigeria, a place where issues that degrade Ndigbo are sponsored, encouraged and protected. Through his statements, he has sought to establish a connection between the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) and politically motivated crimes.

While some may misinterpret his alias “VeryDarkMan” as a reference to his skin color, it seems more fitting to associate it with the darkness of his intentions and deceptive actions. VeryDarkMan appears to be yet another tool employed by the Nigerian government to spread disinformation and manipulate public perception. Unfortunately, many Nigerians have yet to recognize the sophisticated tactics being used to perpetuate these narratives. The government’s “infowar” strategy relies on individuals like him to mislead the populace and maintain control through misinformation.

Just recently, VeryDarkMan was accused of attempting to misappropriate nearly two hundred million Naira that had been donated to support what he claimed to be a charitable foundation. The confused errand boy  fabricated a story about his bank account being hacked to justify the disappearance of the funds - claims that were later debunked as false. This is the same individual who has consistently and falsely accused IPOB of engaging in politically motivated crimes, further advancing a narrative that aligns with governmental propaganda to tarnish the peaceful approach of IPOB towards self determination and Biafra freedom. 

VeryDarkMan’s actions exemplify a broader strategy of manipulation employed by the Nigerian government: tarnishing reputations and spreading falsehoods to achieve their objectives. His role serves as a reminder of the importance of vigilance and critical thinking in the face of such calculated disinformation campaigns.

In conclusion, VeryDarkMan stands as a prime example of how individuals can be manipulated to serve the interests of a corrupt agenda. His deceitful actions and role as a mouthpiece for false narratives not only undermine public trust but also exposes him as a willing participant in the systemic betrayal of the people. The sooner Nigerians recognize his true motives, the sooner they can dismantle the harmful propaganda he perpetuates.

The Accusation Against IPOB: Is VDM Simply Clueless or Indirectly Hinting at His Sponsor's Script?

 The Accusation Against IPOB: Is VDM Simply Clueless or Indirectly Hinting at His Sponsor's Script?

In recent times, the blackmailing narrative of  Nigeria government against the Indigenous People of Biafra(IPOB) has become increasingly contentious, with various persons being mobilised to weigh in on the movement's legitimacy and motives. One such persons is a Nigerian social media celebrity VeryDarkMan(VDM), who has been in conversations for his malicious accusation against IPOB, claiming that the organization is destabilizing Southeast Nigeria.

However, a closer examination of his statement and body language while he spoke, raises questions about the motivations behind his claims and whether he is merely echoing a script written by unseen sponsors with vested interests in discrediting the Biafran freedom movement.

VDM's assertion about IPOB being a destabilizing force in the Southeast aligns closely with narratives often propagated by governmental authorities. This raises red flags and prompts an examination of whether his claims are truly his own or if they are part of a larger agenda designed to delegitimize a peaceful movement that seeks justice and self-determination for the Biafra Nation. The timing of such accusation, amidst ongoing tensions and political strife in the region, suggests that they may be strategically aimed at diverting attention from the real issues at hand. The agendists wants to manipulate the public into wrongly and ignorantly discussing about peaceful IPOB while they(the agendists) continue to perpetrate crimes in the region. 

It is worthy to note that IPOB have clarified severally with evidences that the chaos in Southeast Nigeria is not a product of the movement, but rather a result of government-sponsored provocateurs who aim to create discord and justify heavy-handed responses. Governor Hope Uzodimma also in one of his public addresses equally stated it clearly that the crimes being committed in his state in particular, are not committed by IPOB. But unfortunately, the Nigerian media and people like VDM cannot see those glaring vindications of IPOB because they are working on a dirty agenda. 

By accusing IPOB of destabilization, it shows that VDM is a pawn in the hands of those who wish to suppress dissent voices and maintain the status quo. This tells that his accusation is  not only a reflection of his hateful views, but he is simply a mouthpiece for a script designed to undermine the aspirations of the Biafran people.

In a society where narratives can be shaped by those in power, it is crucial for individuals to critically assess the motivations behind such public rant.

Furthermore, the implications of VDM's accusations extend beyond just his personal views; they resonate with a larger audience that may not fully understand the complexities of the IPOB movement. This can lead to misinformation. Let us state it clearly to all who may not know, that the Biafran struggle is rooted in historical grievances and a legitimate desire for autonomy through a legitimate process. So, reducing it to mere destabilization ignores the broader context of the struggle and diminishes the voices of those advocating for meaningful change. The spiteful statement of VDM is potentially scripted by the government towards impacting negatively on the discourse surrounding such a significant movement as IPOB. 

The government has bought over VDM, seeing how he is manipulating a large mass of the jobless Nigerian youths on social media, thinking that aligning him with the government narratives can alienate supporters of IPOB and those who advocate for the rights of the Biafran people.

The Biafran nation is not merely a political issue; it embodies a historical and cultural identity that many hold dear. By dismissing IPOB's efforts as mere destabilization, VDM tends to undermine the legitimate concerns of countless individuals who have faced marginalization and injustice. This dismissal not only perpetuates a harmful narrative but also distracts from the real issues that need to be addressed, such as economic disparities, security challenges, and the demand for self-determination. This is very wrong. 

Therefore, these social media celebrities and their likes should get civil in their reasoning and know that as the discourse around IPOB continues to evolve, it is crucial for all stakeholders—activists, influencers, and the general public—to engage in informed discussions rather than propagate government scripted rhetoric. 

As the Biafran nation continues the quest for self-determination, IPOB is focusing on the unity of all clans in the Biafran Nation, understanding, and advocacy for justice, rather than some cheap divisive rhetoric. The conversation around IPOB and her goals should prioritize the voices of those directly impacted by the movement and the historical context that shapes it. By fostering a more informed and respectful dialogue, we can move toward a future where the rights and aspirations of all are recognized and respected. So, it is crucial to challenge narratives that seek to diminish this struggle.

We must remain vigilant against misinformations coming from clueless and misguided voices of government agents as  VDM. We must stand united in the quest for a better tomorrow for the Biafran nation, and other entrapped ethnic nations in the British contraption, Nigeria.
