JUST IN!!! IPOB are Criminals, Terrorists, Not Freedom Fighters – Buhari | #IgbereTV
President Muhammadu Buhari has described the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, as criminals, adding that the group led by Nnamdi Kanu are thieves promoting terrorism.
The president insisted that IPOB is not defending Christians in the Southeast but terrorising residents of the region.
In a statement by President Buhari’s spokesman, Garba Shehu, and obtained by NAN, the president lamented the group’s alleged attack on police stations and government facilities in the Southeast.
Buhari maintained that the Kanu-led group are not freedom fighters.
The statement reads in part: “Further afield in the South-East, IPOB are not struggling for freedom when they attack police stations and property, but rather committing acts of terrorism,” to steal money.
“IPOB is not defending Christians, as their highly paid foreign lobbyists claim when almost every citizen of those states they terrorize is uniformly Christian.”
The president also appealed to Nigerians to unite against, “those who seek to divide us for their own nefarious financial and political gain.”
