The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has named Mazi Chika Edoziem as her new leader. IPOB said Edoziem would pilot its affairs until its leader, Nnamdi Kanu, is released.

 

It is not clear if Mazi Nnamdi Kanu who is currently locked up by the Department of State Services, DSS, is temporary or permanently relived of his duties at the DoS. However, a statement by the group’s spokesman, Emma Powerful, said Edoziem would relinquish the leadership role to Kanu when he is released.

The statement reads partly:

“For the avoidance of doubt, the Directorate of State of the Indigenous People of Biafra (DOS), headed by Mazi Chika Edoziem, is at the helm of affairs of the Biafra movement; whenever our leader Mazi Nnamdi KANU comes out, he hands over IPOB structure back to him.”

Mazi Chika Edoziem in his speech, reaffirmed the IPOB family that The Unconditional release of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu & Biafra independence agenda were all presented on this international platform by IPOB Head of Directorates.

 

Reacting to the report by a popular Nigerian news publication, that Edoziem is appointed leader on interim basis, sources revealed to LatestNGnews.com that Mazi Chika Edoziem has been leading the Day to Day activities of IPOB Family Worldwide, even before the Extraordinary RENDITION and Mazi Nnamdi Kanu
