The global family and movement of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has called on the Anambra State governor, Prof. Charles Soludo to sack his homeland commissioner.
This call was contained in a press release signed by the Publicity Secretary of IPOB, Comr Emma Powerful.
The group also tasked the governor to wake up and tackle both the internal and external security threats in the state.
“This call has become necessary in the wake of increased activities of politically sponsored criminals and fulani terrorists masquerading as herdsmen in some communites in Anambra State. This poses an endemic threat to the lives and properties of the affected communites and entire Igbo land because Anambra is the heartbeat of Igbo Land.
“IPOB intelligence unit gathered that Mr. Chikodili Anara, aka Igbakigba, who is coincidentally the Commissioner for Homeland Security in Anambra State, is the man responsible for the insecurity in the State.
“This man was the former security adviser to the previous governor of Anambra State. He recruited armed criminals who are being used to intimidate, silence, and kill anyone who questions his rascality. The recruited criminal gangs are used to impersonate IPOB and ESN as they go into kidnapping and car snatching just to blackmail this noble movement.
“He created and recruited an Anambra vigilante group (AVG) to murder anybody suspected to be an IPOB member, which hasn’t yielded the desired outcome. We are monitoring his new strategy against IPOB. He will soon get what he is looking for. His vodoo powers will fail him soon.” IPOB said.
IPOB alleged that the recent influx of Fulani terrorists nicknamed herdsmen in some communites in Anambra was the handiwork of this same Chikodili Anara.
“Therefore, ESN Anambra state Command and villagers are advised to be on high alert in those axis that are witnessing the influx of strange individuals.
IPOB claimed that the commissioner in concert with other agents of fulanization sold thousand of acres of land to Miyetti Allah cattle rearers which they noted is causing tensions in the affected communities.
IPOB however vowed never to allow the future of Anambra State and the entire Ndigbo to be mortgaged for insatiable greed and unfortunate politics.
Attempts to get the Anambra homeland commissioner’s side of the story by our correspondent did not yield any positive dividend as he phone didn’t go through when called.
