Nigeria Government And The Games Of Blackmail Against Lawful IPOB

 Nigeria Government And The Games Of Blackmail Against Lawful IPOB

 

Nigeria Government has been bitterly unpleased over the glaring progress the Indigenous People Of Biafra(IPOB) have made and still making on her quest to restore the sovereignty of Biafra Nation. Hence, Nigeria Government has kept on pulling all forms of blackmail strings on the peaceful Biafra restoration movement, IPOB.

 

A few weeks back, Ikedi Ohakim, a former Governor of Imo State was attacked in what is suspected to be a planned assassination, but fortunately failed as Ikedi escaped the attempt on his life.

 

If those gunmen behind the assassination plot had succeeded in killing the former Governor, Nigeria Government and her Media houses would have blamed it on IPOB. But thankfully, Ikedi lives to tell his story by himself and pointed out that IPOB had no hand in his attack, stating that it was carried out by highly trained assassins.

 

Similarly, the home of the spokesman to Coalition Of United Political Parties (CUPP), Ikenga Ugochinyere was attacked on the 14th of January by men suspected to be working for the state government. The attack led to the death of Ikenga Ugochinyere's elder brother, others and the burning of several properties, including so many cars parked in and around the compound. Had it been that Ikenga Ugochinyere did not raise an alarm when the attack was going on, or had it been that they succeeded in killing Mr Ugochinyere, they would have blamed the attack on IPOB, just to dent the spotless image of the peaceful movement.

 

Despite the IPOB's continuous distancing of herself from violence and criminality, Nigerian Government have remained hell-bent on dishing out all manner of cheap blackmails against IPOB, with the help of the sold out media houses in the county. It has been purely a case of giving a dog a bad name to kill it.

 

However, IPOB has vowed to remain peaceful in the face of all the blackmails and provocations. The movement have as well maintained that nothing can stop her quest for the total freedom of the people of old Eastern Region of Nigeria(Biafra), through a peaceful means.
