BIAFRA: IPOB Lauds Ekwueme, Nwabueze, Others
The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, and the directorate
of State, DOS, have commended the former Vice President, Dr Alex Ekwueme,
erudite Professor, Dr Ben Nwabueze and the founder of Igbo Youths Movement,
Evangelist Eliot Uko for supporting the course of Biafra since the inception of
IPOB.
This was contain in a statement yesterday by the director of
publicity of IPOB, Emma Powerful.
The statement read:
“All through history, in every clime, when God’s ordained
revolution manifests like the Biafra and IPOB revolution, so many forces
usually oppose it, and move to stop it, subvert it, and undermine it and or
sabotage and blackmail it. Our journey to freedom is no different.
“We must forgive all who opposed us in the past, either out
of fear or out of ignorance. We welcome them anytime they wake up from slumber
and queue in the correct line.
“In that connection, we note the recent waking up
of those who have misunderstood us in the past; we welcome them all, including
the Igbo summit group who called on the Federal Government to release our
leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu during their summit at the Abia State University Uturu,
Ohanaeze Ndigbo and Igbo Leaders of Thought.
“We believe we have conquered every opposition,
through the simple truth and the grace of God.
“We sincerely thank all our members, admirers,
sympathizers and supporters all over the world for their sacrifices,
steadfastness and support so far. We are truly grateful.
“The journey has not been easy, but we appreciate
you all and assure you, that the great and noble IPOB and it’s leader shall
remain steadfast, resolute, fearless and totally committed to freedom no matter
what may come our way.
“We will always stand on the truth at all times.
No price is too high for the liberty of Biafrans. In this regard, we must
appreciate the tireless Prof. Ben Nwabueze, for his fatherly counsel and noble
heart in defense of the truth and pursuit of justice.
“We appreciate Dr. Alex Ekwueme, the Iroko, for
his fatherly advice and standing on the truth; we appreciate the great mom,
Chief Mrs. Maria Okwor, the defender of the oppressed, the only amazon, who
like wine appreciates in value with age; we are grateful to the indefatigable
Evang. Elliot Uko, a truly upright man, defender of truth and a man of peace. We
also commend the efforts made by great men of God Bishop Emmanuel Chukwuma of
Enugu and Bishop Ephraim Ikeakor of Nnewi.”
