We wish to inform you that the Nigerian defence headquarters has branded the Indigenous People Of Biafra a terrorist group. This comes not long after we reported that the Governor of Abia state has ordered the withdrawal of Army from the streets of Abia state. So, according to the DHQ, the IPOB Is A Terrorist Group. This, we must say, is unexpected.
This breaking news was announced by the Maj.-Gen. John Enenche, the Director, Defence Information (DDI). According to him, after due research and observations and given the IPOB’s modus operandi, that the IPOB Is A Terrorist Group. Recall, the IPOB has always prided itself in the use of non-violent approach. So, it is really a twist of event to be branded a terrorist group.
IPOB Is A Terrorist Group, DHQ

“After due professional analysis and recent developments, it has become expedient to notify the general public that the claim by IPOB actors that the organisation is non-violent is not true. Hence, the need to bring to public awareness the true and current state of IPOB.
