The Indigenous people of Biafra has come out to clear the air on a trending video where the abductors of traditional rulers in Imo State were seen boasting that the leader of IPOB, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, ordered them to Kidnap and kill anyone who stands as an opposition to Baifra.

 
 
 

After a joint raid by the security operatives, it was discovered that the kidnappers killed and roasted some of their victims. On that note, the IPOB through is spokesperson, Emma Powerful, in a statement obtained by LatestNGnews.com, condemned the acts of these kidnappers.

 
 
 

IPOB strongly maintained that genocide and cannibalism is not an attribute of the group, thus exonerating itself saying that its security outfit, Eastern Security Network (ESN) is not involved in “these dastardly acts and barbarity”. 

 
 
 

IPOB distanced itself from the unfortunate events in Imo state, stating that the “genocide” is planned by the conspirator “and his co-travellers” to “unleashing mayhem on our people in their desperation to demonise ESN personnel and IPOB volunteers”.

 
 
 

“We have nothing in common with agents of death, and we don’t engage in barbarities and cannibalism of sorts, – the statement partly reads.

 
 
 

“What is happening in Imo particularly in Orsuihiteukwa, Nnempi, Ibiasoegbe, Awo-Mmamma, Orlu, Oru East, Oru West, Nkwere and their environs including Orsumoghu and entire Ihiala LGA of Anambra State are the original plans to demonise Biafra agitators and ESN operatives and tag them as criminals but unfortunately their plan failed.

 
 
 

“IPOB/ESN operatives don’t engage in raping and kidnapping. That’s not part of their mandate. They are out to defend them (Imolites) against terrorists and criminal herdsmen,”
