Biafra vows to disrupt Anambra gubernatorial election

The Indigenous people of Biafra IPOB have vowed to disrupt the upcoming November 18 Anambra gubernatorial elections. The  Pro-Biafra group made a statement saying that it will not allow slavery and misery among the people in the area. Their publicity spokesman Powerful Emma in Awka made a statement stating that the group had not changed its mind on the issue contrary to insinuations made in some areas.The  group was reacting to the recent threat by the Anambra State Commissioner of Police, Mr Garba Umar, that it would deal ruthlessly with any group that would threaten the Anambra poll.

He said, “The election had been scheduled by an authorised government agency; nobody, including IPOB, has the capacity to stop it.”
Umar added “Anambra Citizens have the right to have periodic elections to elect their leaders; nobody or group of persons can deny them such right.”We are here to provide them the protection to exercise their franchise. Nobody can’t stop them from exercising their constitutional rights. We shall have no option than to suppress such threat. We have the capacity to do so”, Umar stated.
But IPOB in the statement state on Sunday insisted that it would truncate the poll.
“Biafrans cannot be reasonably expected to agree to any electoral process that will only perpetuate their current slave status and misery in this colonial contraption named Nigeria.
