Uche Mefor, estranged Deputy-Leader of the outlawed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), on Sunday described the separatist organization as “the single largest killers of Igbo people in peace time”.
Newsbreak.ng reports that Mefor has been critical of IPOB since he fell out with the group’s leader, Nnamdi Kanu in 2020.
Now, in a fresh censure, the diaspora-based Biafra agitator hit out at IPOB.
“IPONK-IPOB remains the single largest killers of Igbo people in peace time. Has it not dawned on you that IPONK-IPOB can never benefit from their atrocities of torturing, killing and beheading Igbo Biafrans?” he wrote on his verified Facebook page.
In a piece of related news, IPOB has disagreed with the Department of State Service (DSS) over the latter’s denial of involvement in the alleged abduction and disappearance of its members, insisting that the secret police cannot claim knowing nothing [sic] about the alleged missing members.
IPOB, in a statement by its Media and Publicity Secretary who deploys the pseudonym, Emma Powerful, alleged that contrary to claims by the DSS, its members had been “serially abducted” by security agencies since 2020.
The pro-Biafra movement accused security agencies of carrying out alleged genocide and ethnic cleansing of Igbo youths.
It called on the United Nations (UN) and Amnesty International to investigate alleged genocide against Biafran agitators and bring to book those behind it.
