| More Niger Delta Militant groups express support for Biafra. Vow to crumble Nigeria |
The groups, Concerned Militant Leaders (CML) and Niger Delta People’s
Democratic Front (NDPDF) made the declaration yesterday in separate
statements in port Harcourt, Rivers State, following reports that there
were plans by the Federal Government, to use witnesses in mask, to
testify against the leader of IPOB, who was charged of treason in court.
Reacting to the report, leaders of the two groups, General Ben (CML) and
Precious Iyoyo (aka General playboy), stated that since President
Muhammadu Buhari-led government was determined to cause problem in the
country particularly in the South-South and South-East zones, by
stubbornly refusing to release Kanu, the groups were ready to cripple
the economy.
Specifically, General Ben, who is known for his blunt statements, said
when the 31 day-ultimatum given to the federal government to release the
IPOB leader expires tomorrow, Monday, February 22, the battle line
would have been drawn. Ben, in the CML statement, declared that the
target areas of the first stage of the uprising would be in Abia and
Anambra States, as well as Abuja, the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
He said that the group’s reason for the two states and Abuja was because
they were the major places where Federal Government shed the blood of
Biafran “brothers and sisters.”
General Ben declared: “We are ready for Federal Government, which said
we would be treated as criminals and saboteurs. The 31-day ultimatum
will expire on Monday. We are ready and will attack them in Abia,
Anambra and Abuja, where they shed the blood of Biafran brothers and
sisters. “We are not going to attack the civilians per se; but we are
going to attack the presence of the Federal Government in the areas. If
President Buhari could not clear Boko Haram in six months, as he told
Nigerians, why didn’t he focus attention on the North? Why did he waste
the blood of Biafrans people?
