President Bola Tinubu, has been declared wanted by a factional leader of Indigenous People Of Biafra, IPOB, Simon Ekpa.
Also declared wanted by the Biafra agitator is Vice president, Kashim Shettima among others.
According to Ekpa, a self acclaimed prime Minister of Biafra, Tinubu, Shettima and 7 other persons on the list are wanted for terrorism allegations in South East.
DAILY GIST recalls that the Defence Headquarters had earlier declared that Ekpa alongside 96 others wanted for terrorism in the country.
However reacting in a press release on Sunday, Ekpa said the inclusion of his name in the terror list released by DHQ is dead on arrival.
The seperatist claimed that those on the list are behind insecurity in the south-east region.
He also promised to release more detailed names of the sponsors of terrorism in Biafraland and their accomplices in earnest.
The statement partly reads: “The Biafra government will not challenge the declaration of the Prime Minister of Biafra Simon Ekpa wanted by @HQNigerianArmy in any Nigeria court.
There is no court of competent jurisdiction for the Biafra government to challenge such frivolous declaration.”
“We are not part of Nigeria by all ramifications and therefore will not validate any of their nonsense in any Nigeria law court.
“The declaration of Simon Ekpa wanted by @HQNigerianArmy is dead on arrival like Dodo. I call on Biafra Defence forces to intensify their defence against terrorism in Biafraland,” he wrote.
Ekpa added: “Meanwhile the IPOB Nigeria is set to challenge their own in their Nigeria court. Goodluck to them.
The Biafra Government hereby declare the following terrorists and sponsors of terrorism as a persona non grata in Biafra territory until declaration and beyond.
They are:
1. Hope Uzodinma of Imo state
2. Soludo of Anambra State
3. Mbah of Enugu State
4. All Service Chief
5. Illegitimate President Tinubu
6. All South East Senators and House of representatives members, except Chief “Chinyelugo Imo”
7. All GOCs of Nigeria within Biafra territory
8 All CPs within Biafra territory.
9. Illegitimate VP Shettima
The above sponsors of terrorism, ethnic cleansing, killing and wanton destruction of lives and properties of Biafrans must be arrested anywhere you see them within Biafra territory.
A more detailed names of the sponsors of terrorism in Biafraland and their accomplices will be released soon.”
