Native Individuals of Biafra (IPOB) has expose cases of printing Biafran money and other state gear as broadly estimated in some part of the media.
Emma Powerful, the group’s spokesperson, also said that the group is not planning to form a Biafra “kangaroo government in exile,” distancing itself from “the Auto Pilot,” another pro-Biafra group that is said to be behind the rumors.
He stated that IPOB, as a well-organized organization, would not pursue such an agenda without establishing contact with Southeast Asians.
“IPOB is not part of the formation of the ‘kangaroo’ Biafra government in exile anywhere,” asserts Powerful. In addition, there are no factions in IPOB, and we are not connected to autopilot groups.
“Any gathering working in anything that name or mask outside IPOB under the authority of Nnamdi Kanu and the directorate of state is all alone. We warn everyone not to use the names IPOB, Eastern Security Network, M-Branch, or Kanu in their names or in any of their operations.
“The individuals who are in charge of the corrupt Radio Biafra government in exile in the United States are not members of IPOB, and they ought to stop linking themselves to IPOB. We have repeatedly stated to Biafrans that IPOB has no involvement in the alleged exiled Biafra government.
“Those steering government in banishment in the USA are not IPOB individuals, and they don’t have good intentions for Biafra opportunity and reclamation. Powerful stated, “They are politicians, not a non-violent freedom fighter organization like IPOB.”
Those working the Kangaroo radio in the USA ought to quit connecting their exercises to IPOB in light of the fact that they are neither addressing IPOB nor Kanu in Biafra development.
“IPOB is a peaceful movement that has deep roots and is focused on our established agenda, which is centered on holding a referendum on Biafra, which will lead to our freedom. Until Biafra is restored through a referendum, IPOB cannot be divided.
“No matter what comes our way, we will not give up on the quest for the liberation of Biafra.” Additionally, because we are not yet a sovereign nation, IPOB does not intend to print Biafra currency, stamps, or other significant state documents.
“Day-dreamers are those wild-goose chasers who talk about printing Biafra currency with their faces on it. If we print currencies now, where can they be used as legal tender? IPOB won’t be persuaded to participate in state initiatives too soon.
He stated, “All we want is the unconditional release of Kanu and a date for the Biafra referendum.”
