‘Fulani terrorists behind Hausa woman’s killing’ – IPOB
Proscribed separatist group, the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), says ‘Fulani terrorists and jihadists’ were responsible for the murder of a Hausa woman and her children in Anambra State.
Speaking through its spokesperson Emma Powerful, IPOB rejected the allegation by the Coalition of Northern Groups (CNG) that its members carried out the killing.
TheCornet had reported that unknown gunmen killed the deceased, her four children, and some other person.
In his statement, Powerful said, “We remain peaceful in our pursuit for Biafra freedom and if they could not call the criminals they brought in our land and thinking we can run for them, they are jokers, let them start this fight and see what the end will look like.
“IPOB has nothing whatsoever to do with the death of a Hausa woman who was with her children on Sunday and we strongly condemn the dastard act by criminals sponsored by Northern politicians.
“Before they threatened us, they should, first of all, remove those terrorists and bandits transferred into Obinze barracks in Owerri, Imo State where they operate from and they were brought to kill and murder and blame it on peaceful IPOB and ESN.
“The ESN (Eastern Security Network) does not work like bandits and terrorists because we know what human blood represents. The killers of this woman and children were Fulani terrorists and jihadists they transferred into military barracks and want soldiers to protect them.
“They are sharing them with ID cards to operate and the world must ask the military why they were giving these terrorist cards for identification.
