The assassins of Hausa mother, Fatima with four children in Anambra State, according to the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, are not agents of the Eastern Security Network, ESN.
According to IPOB, killing a pregnant lady in Igbo country is an obscenity, hence ESN had no involvement in Fatima’s murder.
IPOB’s spokeswoman, Emma Powerful, said that Fulanis murdered Fatima in order to sow discord between Igbos and Hausas.
Powerful issued a statement warning that those responsible for her death will be held accountable.
It Will Be Difficult For Us To Leave Anambra, Hausa Community In Nnewi Tells Northern Elders
The statement by Powerful reads partly: “We the global family and movement of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) ably led by our great leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu wish to state unequivocally that we have no hands in the killing of Hausa woman and her children in Agulu, Anambra State. We strongly condemn that abominable act. In Igbo land it’s an abomination to kill a pregnant woman. The perpetrators of this heinous crime are certainly not IPOB and could never have been IPOB.
“We have always said it that terrorists were imported into Biafra land to commit the ongoing atrocities all in an attempt to discredit our struggle, demonise IPOB and proscribe it then lobby and bribe Britain to tag us a terror group with the hope to stop our march to freedom but the doubters who already have a predetermined belief will not listen.
“The husband said he ran away from his home state Adamawa because of terrorists pursuing him and his family members. How are we sure that those pursuing him from his place were not behind to this wicked murder of this pregnant woman and her children? The people pursuing him can come here and kill them to give the impression that Igbos and IPOB killed them. We can’t kill pregnant women and children is an abomination in our land.
Hausa Community Gets Land In Nnewi
“Those involved in the barbarity of killing the Hausa woman and children in Agulu should wait for the repercussions of the evil they committed against the innocent woman and children. The criminals behind this barbarity should be prepared to pay for their heinous crimes.
“IPOB has severally called these criminals to allow Hausa citizens to do their legitimate business in our land because Hausa suffer the same fate we are facing in the hands of Fulani terrorists claiming they are herdsmen in Nigeria
“Fulani people decided to kill the woman and her children and blame it on IPOB so that Hausa people can help them start killing Igbo people living in the North because they know they can’t do it again. The Hausas leaders must not fall for this Fulani gimmick. We assure them that the Hausa community in Biafraland are safe and should continue to live their normal life amongst our people and go about their legitimate businesses.”
