The Indigenous Peoples of Biafra, IPOB, has distanced its members from the purported killing of six children in Anambra State, describing the allegation as “malicious and mischievous”.
IPOB in a press release issued by its Media and Publicity Secretary Emma Powerful entitled: “it’s ridiculous to link IPOB, ESN with the killing of children in Anambra State”, said mischief-makers were behind the false report.
The pro-Biafra movement said it inconceivable that IPOB and ESN whose main mandate is to defend the people of the Eastern region against terrorists, would turn against the same people they stake their lives to protect.
The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, says the military raid of Orlu and Orsu Local Government Areas of Imo State on Thursday marked the beginning of the second Nigeria/Biafra war.
IPOB, which made the declaration in a statement by its Media and Publicity Secretary Emma Powerful, said that Nigeria had officially declared war against Biafra by launching a military raid on unarmed civilians.

On Thursday, the military had admitted launching land and air operations against operatives of Eastern Security Network, ESN, believed to be in the forests in Orlu and its environs.
IPOB argued that the military had no justification for launching an attack on ESN, a mere vigilante group protecting the Eastern region’s people against terrorists and killer herdsmen, whereas bandits rampaging the country are untouched.
