The proscribed Indligenous People of Biafra (IPOB) said killings and the height of insecurity going on in Imo State was as a result of political power play and game of interest between Imo State governor, Hope Uzodinma, Senator Rochas Okorocha and Ifeanyi Ararume and a few others.

The separatist group insiged that power struggle that emanated from “illegal imposition of Hope Uzodinma as Governor by the Nigeria Supreme Court”, was the major cause of insecurity, noting that they should stop spilling blood of innocent citizens for their dirty politics. googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js">

In a statement by IPOB’s Media and Publicity Secretary, Emma Powerful which was made available to journalists on Sunday, said, there was “the ongoing attacks by the Nigerian security agencies and Ebubeagu militia against civilians” on peaceful communities in Okigwe, Imo State.

The group said, “the Nigeria Army, Police, and Ebubeagu invaded Aku, Umulolo, and Ihube communities in Okigwe LGA last week, killing people, abducting innocent citizens, and burning down properties.

“The surviving residents have abandoned their homes for fear of being abducted or shot dead,” the statement said.

The group lamented, saying Hope Uzodinma is collaborating with government agents to turn peaceful Imo State into war zone.

They wondered what Imo indegenes did to Hope Uzodinma and his political rivals that warrants these reckless killings and destruction from the man who claims to be a governor.

“We find what is happening very distasteful and distressing. Imo people are dying every day and night under the supervision of Vampire Hope Uzodinma,” he lamented.

IPOB claimed to have intercepted conspiracy against Hope Uzodinma when his political rivals hired armed militias from Niger Delta to do their bidding.

The statement continued: “In turn, Hope Uzodinma hired and recruited some militants from the same Niger Delta territory his fulanized Ebubeagu militia. These rival political armed groups have turned peaceful Imo State into a war zone.

“As these politicians fight their political rivals, the Nigeria Government capitalize on it to blackmail IPOB.

“Anytime Nigeria Security agents attack the camps of these political thugs and make an arrest, they are paraded, and they are told to claim to be working for IPOB or ESN as a bargain for lesser punishment or for a softer landing.

“In the process of attacking these political criminal camps, neighboring communities are razed and innocent people killed by invading terrorist soldiers.

“We know that the Nigeria government and her compromised security agencies are humiliating our people to spite and show hate for Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and the Biafra struggle. “Unfortunately, to them, our people understand the truth and the gimmicks of our enemies.”
