The proscribed group, Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has reacted to confessions made by persons who allegedly detonated an explosive at the church of the father of the Governor of Rivers State situated at #25 Azikiwe street Port Harcourt.
Emma Powerful, Spokesperson of the group in a statement yesterday described the development as a “lame script.”
He accused the government and security agencies of using the suspects to cover its evil deeds, as he stated that they know where to get the governor if they want him.
“We have heard with utter amazement that the alleged suspects further claimed they were contacted by IPOB to carry out the attack so as to gain recognition,” he said.
“This again is too petty and a lame script by the security agencies and their sponsors. The question is: Which recognition is IPOB a global movement that already maintains a presence in over 100 countries still looking for?
“It’s not in doubt what the government and security agencies can do either to cover evidence or establish cause to justify a premeditated evil. The speed with which the government and police pointed accusing fingers at IPOB even before the commencement of their so-called investigation, raises more suspicion. It’s only a confirmation that the ridiculous alleged confession of the said suspects was only premeditated just to possibly indict IPOB,” he added.
