The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has reiterated that the Igbos remaining unstoppable, towards the realisation of the sovereign State of Biafra.
IPOB’s Publicity Secretary, Emma Powerful, stated this on Saturday, in a press release made available to Newsmen.
This outburst is coming at a time when Northern elder statesman, Tanko Yakassai, had granted an interview, saying that Biafrans cannot lay claims to ownership of oil in the region, and hence stopped by all means from breaking away from Nigeria.
The IPOB Secretary, slammed Yakassai for his poor sense of history, over the ownership of oil in Nigeria, saying it was a deliberate attempt to cause disaffection in the country.
The press release reads in part: “We condemn the statement credited to Tanko Yakassai, that the Biafra agitation is annoying, and the oil in Biafra-land does not belong to the owners of the indigenous people of the land.
“This statement contained in this interview is irritating, that an elder like Tanko Yakassai does not know history of Nigeria, and why Biafra must leave Nigeria without leaving any of her clan or tribe behind.
“It is pathetic that this Alhaji Tanko Yakassai did not see anything wrong with the amorphous geographical expression called Nigeria. The late Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe, allowed himself to be tricked and used by the then British government, to keep this vacuum named Nigeria, by Flora Shaw.
“We reiterate again, that no negotiation of any sorts, unless the government releases our leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and other members detained illegally in all the prisons and security cells across the country.
“He (Yakassai) and his fellow politicians in Nigeria, cannot stop the restoration of Biafra. Our parents were not born Nigerians for the information of this politician and others; therefore, we cannot secede from something we were not part of.” the press release noted.
