The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has alleged that the local government chairman of Ideato in Imo State, Chris Ohizu, was killed by sponsored criminals with an aim to extort money from the Biafra struggle.
Ohizu’s beheading, according to IPOB, was despicable and savage.
The spokesman for the separatist movement, Emma Powerful, bemoaned the recent spike in unrest in Imo State and the Southeast.
Powerful emphasized that the politicians who were to blame for the state’s insecurity would soon lose all political relevance.
“We, the global movement and family of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) under the leadership and command of the indefatigable Liberator Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, condemn the barbaric murder of Mr. Chris Ohizu from Ideato North Local Government of Imo State. The barbaric murder, beheading recording, and viral video of Ideato North Sole Administrator, Chris Ohizu, is a premeditated action by sponsored criminals whose agenda is to blackmail the Biafra struggle,” he said.
“Though the assailants distanced themselves from IPOB and ESN yet talking about Biafra in their barbaric murder of a Biafran in Biafra soil is not acceptable to IPOB. IPOB is worried over the numerous sponsored killings, kidnappings, and illegal abductions of civilians in the Southeast, especially in Imo State, because of Hope Uzodinma’s illegal political manoeuvre,” he added.
