THE Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, disclosed, weekend, that its Eastern Security Network., ESN, has never attacked the military, police nor any other security operatives since its inception, adding that any claim to that effect was mere propaganda against the movement.

Making this disclosure through its spokesperson, Emma Powerful, while reacting to the claim by the Enugu State Police that ESN Operatives attacked them at Four Corner, Enugu State, on the 18th of August 2024, IPOB described the claim as a fallacy and a figment of their imagination.

“It is unfortunate that the Nigeria Police and their military have sustained their lies and propaganda against ESN Operatives to divert attention and justify the Nigerian State-sponsored crimes in Biafraland but ESN are too disciplined to be distracted by the media propaganda of the Nigeria government, and its security agencies.

“The Nigerian government and her murderous security agencies are very  much aware of who the criminal perpetrators are because they always arrange these premeditated crimes just so they can blackmail IPOB and ESN. According to the Nigerian Police, the attackers wore military fatigue.  The question that reasonable people should ask the Nigerian Police  is, since when has the ESN begun to wear military uniforms?

“Worthy of note is the fact that neither the Nigerian Police nor the assailants suffered any casualties in this staged attack. IPOB is not perturbed by the Nigerian Police claims because the Nigerian Police know who the assailants were since they recruited them. Just for the avoidance of doubt, ESN Operatives never and will never wear military uniforms.

“Since, the formation of ESN, IPOB has consistently maintained that Biafra does not have an army yet. ESN Operatives have never claimed or paraded themselves as an army.” – vanguard
