A frontline activist and Director General of Igbo Mandate Congress, Rev Obinna Akukwe, has called for the postponement of the Ohanaeze election scheduled for Friday, January 10, at the national headquarter of the organisation, No 7 Park Avenue, Enugu.

 

Rev. Akukwe advocated that the postponement will enable a peace truce to be reached among the four aspirants for the post of President General namely; Chief Mike Okiro, Dim Uche Okwukwu, Chief Jackson Omenazu, Chief Fyneface Amaechi to avoid what he described as ‘cataclysmic implosion’.

He welcomed the zoning of the next President General position to Rivers state, stating that it is line with the Ohanaeze Ndigbo constitution. He, however, cautioned against monetization of the election.

IPOB’S Rejoicing over Death of Ohanaeze leader, Iwuanyanwu, Irresponsible-Igbo Mandate Congress alleges Poisoning after Visiting Nnamdi Kanu

The Director General of Igbo Mandate Congress IMC, Rev Obinna Akukwe have condemned the various factions and chieftains of IPOB who have continuously rejoiced and gloated over the demise of Ohanaeze Leader, CXhief Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu., describing it as act of irresponsibility.

Speaking in Abuja on Monday during the meeting of Igbo MNADTE congress Directors from the 19 Northern States and FCT, Rev Akukwe said that those sending messages on whatsapp, facebook, twitter and other media platforms claiming that the ‘Spirit of Nnamdi Kanu and Biafra killed Chief Iwuanyanwu’ as irresponsible ignoramus, whether from the family, friends, Ohanaeze, IPOB or any quarter the rumors are originating.

He said that Iwuanyanwu was allegedly poisoned after visiting Nnamdi KANU in DSS Dungeon because he set up to expose persons, internal and external behind the crisis in Igboland, as revealed to him by Nnamdi Kanu.

IPOB Sit at Home Insecurity: Cubana Chief Priest was Right

Written by  Obinna Akukwe

 

I  was recently told by an Indigenous Peoples of  Biafra , IPOB Chieftain that Mr Paschal Chibuike, also known as Cubana Chief Priest  was  callous for claiming that he relocated the headquarters of his business from Owerri to Lagos due to insecurity caused by IPOB and their Sit-at Home, and my response was frank, Cubana Chief Priest was right.

After the claims made by the Cubana Chief Priest THAT INSECURITY MADE HIM RELOCATE HIS BUSINESS HEADQUARTES TO Lagos,  the leadership of IPOB claimed that Governor Hope Uzodimma and all agents of darkness are using him against Ndigbo. The IPOB Chieftains all over the globe condemned him as an agent of darkness, a traitor to the Igbo cause and made mockery of his fortune in the entertainment business, despite them enjoying the same entertainment hotspots. I dare say again that Cubana Chief Priest was Right in relocating his entertainment business out of the South East for reasons open to logical minds.

The IPOB Sit at Home has crippled businesses in the South East, since it was forcefully enforced for every Monday, since 2021. Many foreign investors plying their trade in the South East have quietly relocated to the South West and South South. Many Indigenous business owners, especially the security conscious ones,  have relocated out of the South East.

Simon Ekpa, Nigerian Police and Biafra kidnapers OF Lagos Igbo traders

 

Rev Obinna Akukwe

Simon Ekpa, the Prime Minister of a faction of Biafra, in the wake of the murder of some kidnapers during gun duel at Ladipo market area, have termed the Nigerian Government terrorist for killing nine kidnappers who have been terrorizing the Igbo markets and predominant Igbo communities in Ladipo and Lagos in general.

The Nigerian police under a Yoruba Inspector General, Egbetokun, former Aide-de Camp to Bola Tinubu, equally Yoruba, who became President of Nigeria in May 2023, sent his men of Special Squad to neutralize eleven persons , mostly Biafrans, Biafra lovers and funders of Biafran cause , who happened also to be kidnapping Biafrans to the tune of billions of naira.

These dare devil kidnappers have been known to arrest, keep people in detention for months till they pay the stipulated ransome.
As the leader of Igbo Mandate Congress IMC, an Intelligence Based Igbo Group, mandated by God to Shepherd Ndigbo into Greatness, through Positive Changes Evident Across Africa’ I have access to information on many things happening within and outside Igboland, that affects Ndigbo.

Special Taskforce for The Release Of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu Writes President Tinubu

The Special Task Force for the release of detained leader of Indigenous Peoples of Biafra IPOB, Mr Mnamdi KANU has written President Bola Tinubu on the need for political solution to release the secessionist leader.

 

In a letter to President Tinubu the Special Task Force stated that

“Before the Court appearance of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, the Leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), on 19th March, 2024, most of the Ndi Igbo opinion leaders were optimistic that he would be discharged and acquitted by the Court on that day. 

 

"The disappointment of the unmet expectations led to the spontaneous constitution of this “Taskforce For the Release Of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.” The members of the Taskforce are:

 

"The Chairman of Southeast Traditional Rulers Council and Chairman of the Taskforce, Igwe Lawrence Agubuzu OFR (Chairman); Archbishop of Methodist Church, Umuahia, Diocese,  His Grace, Raphael Opoko (Co-Chair); Eze Akajiofor Ndi Igbo and  Traditional Ruler of Enugwu-Aguleri,  Eze Chukwuemeka Eri (Co-Chair); Archbishop of Anglican Communion, Owerri Province, His Grace, Sunday Onuoha;  Chairman Ndi Eze Igbo of  19 Northern Stares, Eze Dr. Uche Egenti; Eze Igbo Maitama, Abuja, Eze David Kingston Okey-Dede; Igwe Obatobie 1 of Abuja, 

Justice Binta Nyako vs Nnamdi Kanu vs IPOB

 

 

Rev Obinna Akukwe cautions those Urchins in IPOB who are hellbent on tarnishing the image of Justice Binta Nyako that they are the very reasons Nnamdi Kanu has not been given bail.

All the smear campaign against Justice Binta Nyako are meant to forestall all attempts to either release Nnamdi Kanu or give him a robust trial.

It is attempt by those milking Ndigbo dry 

using the name of Nnamdi Kanu to continue with their criminal activities.

 

Once Justice Nyako recuses herself from the case, what guarantee does IPOB have that the replacement will be sympathetic to them.

 

IPOB’S mudslinging tactics has expired. They used it on Muhammadu Buhari, it failed. They used it on Bola Tinubu, it failled. they used it on billionaires EMEKA Offor, Arthur Eze, Andy Uba Senators Ifeanyi Uba and Orji Uzor Kalu, Governors Chukwuma Soludo, Peter Mba, Hope Uzodimma it failed.
