The proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra has come out to say that the burning of houses and unleashing of violence on its supporters will not go unpunished.

The group recently had its say via a statement, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to IPOB, anyone, including governors of states in the South-East, who is found to be sponsoring and encouraging the Nigerian Army and the Ebubeagu security outfit to carry such devilish act will not be spared.

The group added that the people involved would soon pay for their treachery and cruelty to fellow citizens.

It read, “IPOB will not allow this barbarity and cruelty to continue. We will avenge these unprovoked and needless attacks against the houses of innocent Biafran citizens. The mindless burning down of houses in our region by Nigerian security operatives and Ebubeagu cannot go unreciprocated.”

“We warned against the formation of Ebubeagu in Biafra land because we knew they were coming to collude with the security agencies in killing our people.”

“But the people ignored our warning, and today, we have been vindicated. Our fears have come true, but the wicked will not go free. For doing this to our people, we declare that the days of Ebubeagu in Biafra land are numbered. They will pay for what the military is using them to do against their fellow Biafrans.”

“Very soon, we will make public the total number of houses so far burnt down in different parts of Biafra land, especially in Enugu, Imo and Ebonyi states.”

“We also want the governors of these states to take note, and not blame IPOB for any reprisal, because we can’t fold our arms and allow criminals in security uniforms to continue to commit genocide in Biafra land unchallenged. Since nobody is defending our hapless people, we shall not abandon them. Enough is enough!”
