The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has revealed the next move towards its struggle for independence and the continued detention of its leader, Nnamdi Kanu by the Nigerian government.

In a statement made available to newsmen on Monday, the secessionists revealed that the Head of Directorate of State, Chika Edoziem, will address members via Radio Biafra on Saturday, January 1 by 7:00 PM on the important matters.

The statement signed and issued by IPOB’s spokesperson, Emma Powerful, stressed that Edoziem will speak on important matters to chart the struggle for the sovereign Biafra nation.

Powerful also noted that the broadcast would be aired live on Facebook and other social media platforms.

He explained that the group’s achievements over time, challenges, and roadmaps to its liberation are a thing of priority in the scheduled broadcast.

Ezenwoko’s Blog understands that IPOB’s leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu has been in the custody of the Department of State Services following his rearrest and repatriation to Nigeria months ago.

The statement read, “We the global family and movement of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) wish to announce to the people of Biafra both home and in the diaspora, friends of Biafra and lovers of freedom that the Head of Directorate of State of IPOB, Chika Edoziem, will address Biafrans on radio Biafra on Saturday 1st of January 2022.

“He will highlight the achievements IPOB has recorded this year, and hint on the roadmaps to our liberation. He will also address some pertinent issues pertaining to our struggle for independence.

“IPOB has gone beyond human destruction and it will remain so till Biafra freedom is fully achieved. Anybody can say whatever they like, IPOB remains unshakable. There is no retreat until Biafra sovereignty is fully restored.

“The broadcast will be simultaneously relayed live through our many channels including IPOB community radio, tuning, radio Biafra FM, Facebook, satellite and others.

“We, therefore, urge everybody to hook on and listen in during the broadcast. We also wish to inform Biafrans that Mazi Chinasa Nworu and his crew will also be on the radio Biafra for questions and answer on the 30th of December. Call in during the live programme for your questions on anything bordering on our independence struggle.”

Meanwhile, members of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) on Monday protested against the continued detention of their leader, Nnamdi Kanu.

Ezenwoko’s Blog reports that the proscribed group took to the street in Jerusalem to demand the unconditional release of their detained leader.

The IPOB members were seen walking peacefully towards the seat of power in Jerusalem with both the Biafran and Israeli flags.

In a viral video, the Biafran agitators were seen soliciting the support of the Israeli government in achieving the self-determination of the Eastern region.

They were heard chanting, “Free Nnamdi Kanu now!”, “Give us Biafra!”, “No more Nigeria!”, “Israel government, help us speak out” as they carried placards with inscriptions such as “Biafran Referendum now”, “IPOB, ESN is a peaceful movement”.
