In a statement signed by its Media and Publicity Secretary, Emma Powerful, in Enugu, IPOB urged Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Igbo religious leaders, civil society groups and women organisations to caution the governor against arresting innocent members of the group, stressing that it will no longer tolerate the hounding of its members in Imo.
“Friends, family members and associates of Hope Uzodimma must tell him to release those innocent Biafrans arrested unjustly in Imo State. We give him till the end of November 2021 to do so; failure of which he will be testing the will of the masses and our irrevocable resolve to restore Biafra. There is no justification for arresting peaceful agitators of Biafra, whereas bandits and mass murderers are allowed to roam the streets freely. This hatred against the innocent must stop.

“We want to put it clear to him and his co-travellers that IPOB will never stop in Imo because it is one of the states in Biafra territory. Uzodimma and his co-travellers are uninformed and cannot stop our agitation for freedom in Imo. We don’t want anybody to blame IPOB should we decide to react,” the statement stated.
The group alleged that Uzodimma and compromised security agents had done enough harm to innocent members of IPOB and ordinary citizens in the state.
