No sit-at-home Friday in S/E; Simon Ekpa is a “refugees interpreter” — IPOB

The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has stated categorically that there will be no sit-at-home on Friday, 22nd July, 2022, in the South East region, saying that the mastermind, one Simon Ekpa, is a “refugees interpreter”.

The Media and Publicity Secretary for IPOB, Comrade Emma Powerful made the pronouncement in a press release obtained by News Band.

Emma Powerful said that the statements credited to Ekpa, who is based in Finland and “through whom Nigeria Government and enemies of Biafra had successfully launched so many tragedies and attacks against our land and people”, is “laughable, disgraceful and unguarded”.

The IPOB leadership condemned the barbaric killing of 14 innocent Igbo youths by the Governor Hope Uzodinma-led Imo State Government’s militia called Ebebuagu, and took strategic measure to curtail the murderous activities of the militias.

It, however, stated that it has not called for any unauthorized sit-at-home on Friday 22nd, July 2022 in response to the murder of the innocent Imo youths.

“We have also commended our people for protesting the murder of innocent youths.

“We have ways of dealing with enemies in our territories without putting more pains on our people who are already under the pains that military siege of Nigeria Government have cursed them.

“We therefore urge our people to ignore the meaningless and senseless order from a Nigeria Agent to Seat-at Home tomorrow.

“The Finland based criminal who defrauds Asylum seekers is the “lead actor/stuntman” through whom the likes of Minister of Lai Mohammed, Presidency Social Media handler Lauretta Onochie, Ike Ekweremadu accessed and mobilized with the sole aim to destroy IPOB struggle.

“He promised his hires to destroy IPOB-ESN and he even boasted in one of his room broadcasts to end IPOB leadership.

“He pretends to be Mazi Nnamdi Kanu disciple but his actions and words betray him as a Judas who sold his Master for pieces of silver,” IPOB said.

Speaking about Simon EKpa, Powerful said that what he does in the society is commit incriminating and prosecutable activities and show evidences that favours certain people like his sponsors while IPOB leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu is still being held in the DSS custody and facility.

He, thereby, strongly reiterated once again that Simon Ekpa is not IPOB member, not IPOB or Biafra spokesman, not a family member of IPOB in any family unit in Finland and has never remitted a dime from his monthly fundraising to Eastern Security Network (ESN).

“Every activity of the Finland based blogger and scammer, Simon Ekpa is to scam and deprive ignorant Biafrans who genuinely wanted to support the only genuine ESN under IPOB-DOS command of funds and logistics so that Igbo land would be invaded by Fulani invaders.

“That’s why he goes on monthly fund raising to deprive genuine ESN of funds and to fund his criminal boys to continue their illegal activities. Unfortunately, some ignorant Biafrans are falling for this scam but hardcore IPOB members are not falling for his scam.

“We, therefore, advise Simon Ekpa and his miserable sponsors not to continue hiding under the name IPOB, ESN and commit all manner of crimes.

“Simon’s Ekpa has no mandate to issue a sit at home order using IPOB therefore our people must ignore such senseless Infiltrators rant and go about your normal business, we have no business with the criminal, the female nude seller who causes pain to the people of Biafra.

“IPOB did not order sit-at-home on Friday which is tomorrow 22nd July, 2022,” he added.
