IPOB warns Imo communities to resist Gov Wike’s ‘satanic’ demands

The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has warned residents of Ohaji Local Government Area in Imo State against handing over their land to Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike.

The residents of Ohaji have been warned by IPOB not to accept Wike’s purported demonic and fraudulent cash inducement.

The warning was delivered by IPOB’s spokesman, Emma Powerful on Monday, May 30. This was in response to a purported illegal and undocumented ceding of towns in the Ohaji Local Government Area to Wike.

Wike’s relinquishing of their towns to him would have a negative impact on their children’s future, hence such a misleading manoeuvre should be opposed.

He advised communities to consider anyone who tries to persuade people to leave their home country as a crime.

The IPOB noted that accepting to change their state of origin for the sake of N150,000 monthly is evil.

A statement by Powerful reads partly: “Following an illegal undocumented treaty to cede communities of Ohaji Egbema LGA from Imo State to Rivers State via a crooked financial inducement by current Governor Nyesom Ezenwo Wike.

“We the global family and movement of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) under the command and leadership of our great leader Mazi Nnamdi KANU wish to warn that such project is called to a halt to avert inevitable consequences.

“We suggest to the communities that fall into this deceptive venture masterminded by Nyesom Wike to retrace their steps, considering that this singular act could attract futuristic destructive effects.

“IPOB was intimated with the information regarding Governor Wike’s plan, which includes conditional future promises, and has gone through these moves realized that Wike will abandon them in future because governor Wike cannot be in charge of Rivers State beyond his tenor as a current Governor.

“It is a known fact that the Imo State government failed in their obligations as it concerns the predicaments they are facing in that area, but they must forget Wike with his satanic offer.

“Wike’s deceptive offer would harm them and their children in the future as such may not be sustainable by successive governments. Moreover, the Biafra restoration approaches hastily.”
