"When I was growing up, we always said we were Eastern Region; Onitsha Market, Igbo and the Eastern Region were all we knew. I was schooling in Sapele when the war broke out. Words cannot explain how much the British and Fulani poisoned our minds against the Igbos. There was no internet or social media then to uncover their lies."

THE FALSE PREMISE THAT IPOB BELONGS TO NNAMDI KANU
There is this false assumption recently going viral which have the potential to mislead the Biafran people that must be vehemently challenged and factually disputed accordingly.
One Chris Nwogu and his co-handlers under the so-called Sokoto DOS appears to operate from a fundamental premise that the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) is the personal property of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and, by extension, that whoever claims authority under Kanu can automatically exercise authority over the entire organization and its membership.
This premise, however, raises a much bigger question: Does IPOB belong to an individual, or does it belong to the people and the cause for which it was established?
The distinction is important because leadership, ownership and institutional legitimacy are not necessarily the same thing.
A person may occupy a leadership position within an organization, but that does not automatically convert the organization into his personal possession.
IPOB's identity, structures, members, objectives and historical development cannot simply be reduced to the personality of one individual. Therefore, using Nnamdi Kanu's name as the sole basis for issuing directives in the name of IPOB does not, by itself, establish legitimate authority over the organization.
The real test of organizational legitimacy is not how loudly an individual invokes the name of IPOB, but whether there is an identifiable institutional structure, recognized membership base and functioning organizational mechanism through which such authority is exercised.
If Chris Nwogu and those operating around the Sokoto DOS continue to assume that invoking Nnamdi Kanu's name automatically gives them the authority to speak for IPOB, reality may eventually provide a difficult lesson.
A name cannot substitute for an institutional base, and an assertion of authority cannot create legitimacy where the necessary organizational foundation does not exist.
Doing so carries legal implications for those parading themselves as Sokoto DOS issuing threats and election boycott in the name of IPOB.
When that reality eventually becomes unavoidable, the question will be straightforward: what institutional base remains from which Chris Nwogu, a non IPOB member can legitimately use the name of IPOB to issue orders?
If the answer is unclear, then the entire exercise risks exposing the weakness of a system that has confused loyalty to an individual with ownership of an institution.
IPOB, like any serious organization, must ultimately be defined by its people, structures, principles and institutional continuity—not by the assumption that one person's name confers unlimited authority upon everyone claiming to act through him.
The agent provocateurs acting as Sokoto DOS should take this clarification as a warning to desist from using IPOB institutionalized name for any reason or risk incurring the full legal and institutional weight of the Indigenous People Of Biafra, (IPOB) headed by Maazi Chikadibia Edoziem led Directorate Of State, (DOS)

During the 11:00 p.m. News Bulletin on the highly respected AriseTV, our unequivocal rejection of any election boycott, under whatever guise, form, contrivance or manipulation, was emphatically re-echoed.
We have made our position abundantly clear: never again shall we fold our arms and watch our people repeat the destructive path that brought untold devastation to our land. We must choose vigilance and democratic engagement over self-defeating abstention.

I eagerly await the publication of the new IPOB roadmap, oath of allegiance, and constitution centred on the restoration of Biafra. It is my sincere desire to pledge allegiance to Biafra and to its achievable roadmap, which bears no personal name.
I am aware, and we have already noted the clear indications, that numerous distinguished Biafran men and women stand ready to join this struggle the moment the constitution and the Biafran oath of allegiance are unveiled.
Let us prepare ourselves for the work that lies ahead.
Dont forget the date

IPOB media personals
“A word is enough for the wise”.
IPOB media, fighting with a person who loves chaos or insults only brings you down to their level.
You’re not mandated or obliged to respond to all the rubbish these agent provocateurs and blackmailers are dishing out on social media platforms .
For the fact we went through this similar crisis between 2021-2024, we must pay attention only to issues that will contribute positively for our struggle . Remember you cannot be throwing stones at all the dogs that barked at you .
However, never wrestle with a pig , because you both will get dirty, and the pig likes it. It’s better you lose your peace and get messy while fighting the murderous Nigeria Islamic government than fighting with a group of narcissistic individuals who’s plans are just focused on how to drag everyone down since they’re already drowning.
Currently IPOB is going through reformation therefore, kindly Choose to walk away instead of engaging in useless arguments or rebuttals because all these rubbish fake stories , lies and blackmail affects the Biafra struggle negatively by draining public energy, dividing IPOB and Biafra sympathies globally, above all destroying the credibility of our legitimate restoration project.
Furthermore, fake updates distract people from real, pressing issues. Fabricated stories spark internal fighting and mistrust among allies and IPOB members and that’s what the enemies of IPOB want.
Constant misinformation makes the public doubt all news, including real updates. We and our Supporters are wasting so much of our valuable time and energy debunking lies. Don’t forget that the purpose of their False claims is because it’s give these blackmailers an easy ammunition to dismiss the entire efforts of the Biafra struggle .

🇵🇱🇪🇺 During a European Parliament debate on human rights in Nigeria, Pakistan, and Sudan, Dominik Tarczyński highlighted that a genocide of Christians is taking place in Nigeria. The MEP stated that Christians there are falling victim to Islamists. According to the Polish lawmaker, Western Europe's migration policies have also enabled Islamist extremists to enter Europe.
At the same time, Tarczyński emphasised that as early as 2015, Poland opposed opening its borders to mass migration from African nations. He added his signature phrase: "Learn from Poland, be like Poland." His remarks came as Members of the European Parliament strongly condemned human rights violations in Sudan, Nigeria, and Pakistan.
Particular attention was drawn to the deteriorating situation of Christians in Nigeria, including a surge in kidnappings. It should be noted that Christians remain the most persecuted religious group in the world. According to estimates by the organisation Open Doors, 4,849 believers were killed for their faith in Christ in the 2026 reporting period, with nearly 72% of all killings of Christians taking place in Nigeria.

"Our Homes Are Disappearing Before Our Eyes." 😢💔😭
Communities in Uzuakoli, Bende LGA, Raise Fresh Alarm as Devastating Gully Erosion Destroys Homes, Farmlands, Roads and Burial Grounds; Residents Appeal for Urgent Federal and Abia State Government Intervention
A deep humanitarian and environmental crisis is unfolding in Uzuakoli Ancient Kingdom, Bende Local Government Area of Abia State, as communities continue to witness the relentless advance of devastating gully erosion that is swallowing homes, farmlands, roads, economic trees, and even ancestral burial grounds.
With every rainfall, the gully expands at an alarming rate, forcing families to live in fear as buildings develop dangerous cracks and valuable agricultural lands disappear. Residents say generations of hard work and cherished heritage are being washed away before their very eyes.
The affected communities are making an urgent appeal to the Abia State Government, relevant environmental agencies, humanitarian organizations, and development partners to immediately intervene before the disaster claims more lives and properties.
Community leaders warn that if urgent erosion-control measures are not implemented, many families could be displaced, livelihoods destroyed, and entire communities cut off from essential roads and infrastructure.
The renewed cry for help comes amid growing concerns over the severity of erosion in parts of Uzuakoli, with recent official assessments acknowledging the scale of destruction and the need for emergency intervention.
The people of Uzuakoli are united in one desperate plea:
"Save Our Communities. Save Our Homes. Save Our Future. The Time to Act Is Now."
“Shared as received “

Kemi Badenoch Urges Labour to Stand Firm on 10-Year Wait for Permanent UK Residency
https://t.co/gWE43aoKAR
Kemi Badenoch, leader of the Conservative Party, has urged the Labour government not to water down plans to double the wait for permanent UK residency (ILR) from 5 to 10 years.
In a strongly worded letter, she argued that temporary work visas should not automatically lead to settlement, and migrants in low-paid or unemployed roles should leave when their visas expire a policy that could affect around 2 million recent arrivals. Conservatives have offered to support Labour to pass the tougher rules.

MaziNnamdikanu sent Sopuruchi Ochiulor, Chiukwuemeka Mbanabara odum to go with arms and disrupt IPOB Abia state meeting.
These people visited Nnamdikanu in sokoto, and submitted their NIN and automatically became a security threat to all IPOB in Biafraland
They said MaziNnamdikanu sent them to come and introduce new state coordinator under 4th administration.
They said that they was ordered to bring down anybody that refuses to be loyal to 4th Administration.
But IPOB coordinators stood and are standing with DOS led by Mazi Chika Edoziem
In few days from now IPOB leadership headed by Chika Edoziem will shock the world
We are not here to play but for the restoration of Biafra
Anyone that wants to play with the lives of our people must pass through us.

If you have criticised the Nigerian supreme court for appointing Hope Uzodimma as Imo.state governor.. What do you have to say about the appointment of none IPOB member to lead IPOB?
Drop your comments and opinions let us read human conscience.
#SupportBiafraReferendum #SupporBiafra
Can you imagine someone who calls himself a leader is sending Autopilot thugs in Abia to go and attack IPOB coordinators in Aba where they gathered for meeting , the same group of people that killed Ikechukwu Ugwuoha, instructing them to kill and destroy anyone who challenged them from taking over IPOB leadership in Abia ?
This warning is going to Some gullible idiots who are silent now. This path they have decided to take will not only backfire dangerously. Those of you they're sending, and that criminal idiot who is coordinating these attacks, you cannot hide when all this starts, and bear in mind you're inviting calamity on your side.
How can any sensible Biafra think along this part ? How can this be? How can you even think along this path of evil against IPOB members who have died for this struggle, some still in prison, and what you will reward them with is to send thugs to attack them? We can play this dangerous game better than all of you. All Biafrans and IPOB globally should take this issue seriously because only a tree will stand when it hears they want to cut it down.
What happened in Abia state yesterday should not happen anywhere in Biafraland , we are not going to fold our hands .
Never !
Never !!

Before his death in 2011, Mr Ojukwu accused Mr Gowon of betraying the agreement allegedly reached at the Aburi meeting, including an understanding that Nigeria would be restructured in a way that allowed the then four regions greater autonomy.
However, in his autobiography, “My Life of Duty and Allegiance”, launched in Abuja on Tuesday, Mr Gowon maintained that there was no agreement at Aburi to allow the Eastern Region to secede and establish Biafra.
Although Mr Ojukwu is no longer alive to respond to the claims in Mr Gowon’s book, an old NTA interview in which he spoke extensively about the Aburi meeting recently resurfaced on social media.
What Ojukwu said
The exact date of the interview could not be independently verified.
In the interview, Mr Ojukwu insisted that records and transcripts of the Aburi meeting showed that both sides reached the partitioning agreements, contrary to Mr Gowon’s recent account.
“The tapes are available, the records are there. In fact, about two weeks ago, I saw a set of the records again. The transcripts are available but we were talking about the Nigerian situation and certainly at the end, everybody said, ‘You told them this, you did that,’” he said.
He argued that the disagreements that followed Aburi were influenced more by external pressures than by differences between himself and Mr Gowon.
“The fact was our case was so clear that I actually believe that at the end of Aburi that the problem was not Gowon but the problem was the ambassadors in Lagos who were pressing for something else because we understood each other, we agreed on every single point,” he said.
Mr Ojukwu also recalled that the minutes of the meeting were drafted jointly by his chief secretary and officials from Mr Gowon’s side, after which both delegations reportedly agreed on the final document.
“The drafting was in fact with my chief secretary with two other chief secretaries from the other side. I said No and drafted, we looked at it and we agreed. General Ankrah read over thr whole report to us again, asked us if we wanted to amend anything. We said No.”
The former Eastern Region leader also claimed that the atmosphere after the meeting was cordial and optimistic.
