THE Indigenous People Of Biafra (IPOB) in Ebonyi state (Abakaliki
province) on Sunday 28, October 2018 officially inaugurated Okposi-Okwu family
unit in Okposi Ohaozara LGA Ebonyi state.
The inauguration was massively attended by men, women, youths and children
from the area.
Addressing the members of the family unit before the inauguration, Rev.
Okoh Elijah the Ebonyi South senatorial district coordinator, appreciated the
efforts so far exhibited by the members of the unit in supporting the
activities of the senatorial, local government and state though not yet being
inaugurated, he encouraged them to remain indefatigable knowing it fully well
that Biafra restoration is non-negotiable, and there would be no need to either
retreat or surrender till total freedom is achieved.
The Inauguration was performed by Bishop Nwachinemere Stanley AKA
(Biafra Bishop) the Public Relations Officer of the Indigenous People Of Biafra
Ebonyi State. Speaking before the inauguration, he noted that Biafra has come
to stay and there is nothing anybody can do about it and that's why many people
are clamouring to join IPOB today, especially after the IPOB supreme leader
Mazi Nnamdi Kanu reappeared in Israel after a year and some months that the
murderous Nigeria army invaded his home, which led to the killing of more than
28 IPOB members who paid him a courtesy visit on the 14th September, 2017. He
equally urged them to get ready for what is to come because the end of the
struggle may not be peaceful as some persons think of, but to be on a safer side,
"You have to be careful and get more prepared for what is to come".
The Bishop noted that why he doesn’t regret his actions in the involvement of
the struggle for Biafra restoration and total freedom from the British
contraption called Nigeria is because gospel preaching is also more of
liberation from the yoke of the devil and there would be no way you will
separate freedom fighting from gospel preaching.
Shortly after the inauguration the local government area coordinator of
Ohoazara Pastor Michael Tochukwu, expressed his joy over the level of
cooperation by the members of the unit in making sure that the Local government
area is moving on as it ought to.
Mrs Mercy Okokpara the wife of Ebonyi south senatorial district
coordinator as well as the financial secretary to the family unit while
speaking with the media said " We cannot give up in fighting for Biafra
freedom because it is our only hope".
The unit coordinator Mazi Jideofor Ikwegwu while speaking with the media
after the inauguration expressed joy over the achievement of Nnamdi Kanu and
IPOB so far in the struggle for Biafra restoration, he noted that nothing under
the earth would ever make him to give up the agitation for the total freedom of
Biafra, as regard to Biafra referendum he assured IPOB of delivering %100 vote
YES for Biafra exit from Nigeria from his jurisdiction.
The inauguration was equally attended by some Biafra war veterans in the
area, some who spoke to the people during the ceremony marking the inauguration
narrated their ordeal during the bloody war in 1967-1970. They made it known to
the world and all the members of IPOB worldwide that they will never retreat or
surrender in supporting the freedom of Biafra not minding what it will
cost.
