Stop supporting enemies of Nnamdi Kanu – Ohanaeze advises IPOBApex Igbo socio-cultural organization, Ohanaeze Ndigbo, has
advised the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, to uphold a position of
neutrality and refrain from unwarranted interference in the activities of the
body.
Ohanaeze said such encroachment is not only disconcerting
but also unequivocally unacceptable and deserving of stern condemnation.
The pan-Igbo group stated that it’s troubling to observe
that IPOB is being misled by individuals who are, regrettably, benefitting from
the prolonged and unjust incarceration of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.
According to Ohanaeze, it is evident that certain elements
within IPOB have found themselves cornered, defending those who are complicit
in the very detention of the IPOB leader.
In a joint statement issued on Tuesday by the factional
Deputy President-General, Mazi Okechukwu Isiguzoro, and Thompson Ohia,
Spokesperson, the group extended its support to individuals who are not genuine
members of the organization but are closely allied with its leadership, thereby
distorting the original mission.
The statement read: “We cannot overlook the shameful
alignment of IPOB with certain Igbo leaders who seem intent on exploiting Mazi
Nnamdi Kanu as a scapegoat for their own ulterior motives. The very individuals
responsible for the violence against IPOB members are those whom IPOB now
chooses to defend.
“This contradiction not only undermines the integrity of our
collective struggle but also diminishes our shared vision for justice and
equity.
“Ohanaeze Ndigbo would like to publicly inform the general
populace of attempts to manipulate IPOB as a tool for blackmailing the
leadership of our organization. We will resolutely decline to engage in any
media disputes or controversies with the leadership of IPOB, particularly as
they have been led to believe that attacking Ohanaeze Ndigbo will serve their
cause.
“We challenge IPOB to exercise caution in its choices, for
the individuals they currently support are, in fact, the enemies of Mazi Nnamdi
Kanu. These individuals are more invested in taking photographs alongside him
in court rather than genuinely advocating for avenues that would facilitate his
release.
“The ongoing violence against innocent youths, who are
unjustly branded as IPOB terrorists, is a direct consequence of this
misalignment. At this pivotal moment, we implore IPOB and all stakeholders
within our community to reassess their alliances and redirect their efforts
towards a united front against our true adversaries.
“Let us collectively strive for a future marked by clarity
of purpose, unyielding commitment to justice, and profound respect for the
sanctity of our shared heritage.”
