We are all on the Frontline, risking it all to make sure the sacrifice of our heroes' past isn't in vain. Biafra brought us together; IPOB unites us in purpose. Discipline and determination will guide us through. 

MNK in the past has prepared and decorated this global movement of IPOB for a time like this, stressing so much in mental toughness for us to be able to defeat this monster. And that's why the zoo is so afraid of IPOB, not because we're the wealthiest organisation, but because of our dedication, self-discipline, tenacity and determination towards Biafra restoration. MNK foresaw days like this, and without mental toughness, the zoo will highjack and corrupt the communication between IPOB and Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi Kanu in the DSS dungeon, rendering us in a direction that contravenes our collective push as a movement. We must be brilliant. 

And hear me, as long as the leadership of this great movement (DOS) remains on the sole objective of this ideology, heavily piloting 'the day-to-day activities of IPOB' on this solid rock that binds this movement (Code Of Conduct), every of their directive and decision is aimed at the best INTEREST of this movement.

And here we stand. MNK has defeated the zoo in their court as he proclaimed, and the powers that be in the damnable contraption aren't happy with this development and will unleash every mercenary to truncate this hard effort of IPOB, Biafrans and lovers of freedom.  We must be very watchful and ever-ready to decode the antics of the enemy. All of us are fighting, yes, but none of us has paid more sacrifice than those who gave their lives for us to live and have a taste of freedom. 

For their sake, men/women have vowed to remain their mouthpiece until Biafra comes. And for their sake, Biafra shall be restored - not because of some of you striking deals with politicians. Only genuine IPOB members understand what's at stake if we fail to restore Biafra, and that's why we'll never retreat or surrender. Imagine labelling men like Great Ikonso 'saboteurs' because we refuse to buy an idea that's contrary to IPOB's code of conduct. 

Let's remain focused, PROTECT and abide by the leadership of the Indigenous People Of Biafra (IPOB) Directorates Of States (DOS).  Ndewoo nu..!

Why IPOB's ESN is a Necessary Response to Insecurity. The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) have been at the forefront of advocating for the rights and security of the Igbo people in Nigeria.

In response to the growing insecurity in the region, IPOB has established the Eastern Security Network (ESN) to protect their communities from the ravages of terrorism, banditry, and other forms of violence. Despite facing intense propaganda from their enemies, IPOB's ESN remains a necessary response to the insecurity that has plagued the region for years. 

The Security Challenge in the Southeast The Southeast region of Nigeria has been grappling with various security challenges, including kidnapping, armed robbery, and terrorism.

The lack of effective security measures by the Nigerian government has left many communities vulnerable to attacks, leading to the loss of lives and property. In this context, IPOB's decision to establish the ESN is a proactive measure to protect its people and ensure their safety. The Role of ESN in Securing the Region The ESN is a security outfit established by IPOB to provide security for the Igbo people in the Southeast region. The ESN has been instrumental in:

- Protecting communities: The ESN has been working tirelessly to protect communities from attacks by terrorists, bandits, and other armed groups.

- Restoring peace: The ESN has helped to restore peace in many communities, allowing residents to go about their daily activities without fear of attack.

- Promoting stability: The ESN's efforts have contributed to promoting stability in the region, creating an environment conducive to economic growth and development. Addressing the Propaganda Despite the ESN's efforts to secure the region, IPOB and the ESN have faced intense propaganda from their enemies. Some of the propaganda includes:

 - Labelling IPOB as secessionist: Some have labelled IPOB as a secessionist group, seeking to break away from Nigeria. However, IPOB's primary focus is on securing their people and promoting their rights. - Accusing ESN of being a militia: Others have accused the ESN of being a militia group, intent on causing chaos in the region. However, the ESN's mission is to protect their communities, not to engage in violence. The Way Forward. The insecurity in the Southeast region requires a multifaceted approach. While the Nigerian government has a responsibility to provide security for its citizens, IPOB's ESN is a necessary response to the security challenges in the region. To move forward, the following steps can be taken:

- Dialogue and cooperation: The Nigerian government and IPOB should engage in dialogue to address the security challenges in the region and find a mutually beneficial solution.

- Supporting local security initiatives: The government should support local security initiatives, such as the ESN, to promote security and stability in the region.

- Addressing the root causes of insecurity: The government should address the root causes of insecurity, such as poverty, unemployment, and marginalisation, to create a more stable environment. Conclusion: IPOB's ESN is a necessary response to the insecurity that has plagued the Southeast region for years.

Despite the propaganda from their enemies, the ESN remains committed to securing their communities and promoting peace and stability in the region. By working together, the Nigerian government and IPOB can find a solution to the security challenges in the region and create a more secure future for all.

Nigeria's Illegal Abduction And Detention Of Nnamdi Kanu, The Leader Of IPOB, Must End! From the hearts of all of Biafraland, we, the family members of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) worldwide, along with all people of Biafra, raise our voices to the world, exposing the egregious and unlawful actions perpetrated against our leader, Nnamdi Kanu, by the Nigerian government and its complicit authorities. 

Their tyrannical grip tightens around our brother, a testament to their disdain for international law, human rights, and the very principles of justice. Let the world bear witness: Mazi Nnamdi Kanu was not arrested through any legitimate legal process. 

Instead, he was subjected to a barbaric and illegal extraordinary rendition from Kenya, a sovereign nation whose territorial integrity was brazenly violated by Nigerian agents. 

Read More@ Our Journey To Eternal Victory

This act of state-sponsored kidnapping was unequivocally condemned by the Nigerian Court of Appeal itself, which rightly declared it a "clear and egregious violation of international law" and Nigerian statutes, demanding his immediate release. 

Yet, the Nigerian government, in its characteristic defiance of the rule of law, has chosen to ignore its own judiciary's pronouncements. The United Nations Working Group on Arbitrary Detention has echoed our cries, stating unequivocally that Kanu's detention is illegal, unlawful, and unconstitutional. They have affirmed that our leader was subjected to enforced disappearance, stripped of legal protection, and held in violation of multiple fundamental human rights enshrined in international covenants. 

The world must recognise this for what it is: a gross abuse of power and a deliberate assault on the dignity of a man and the aspirations of a people.  We, the Biafra people, through IPOB, are not terrorists.<!> We are a people yearning for our inherent right to self-determination, enshrined in international law, including the African Charter on Human and Peoples' Rights. 

Our struggle for freedom and a referendum is a legitimate exercise of our collective will, yet the Nigerian government has responded with brutal oppression, labelling us terrorists and subjecting our leader to inhumane treatment. The continued incarceration of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu is not just an attack on one man; it is an assault on the fundamental principles of justice, democracy, and the right of a people to determine their own destiny. 

We call upon the international community, world leaders, human rights organisations, and all people of conscience to hold Nigeria accountable for its criminal actions. They have kidnapped our leader, defied their own courts, and ignored the pronouncements of international bodies. We demand the immediate and unconditional release of our leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu. 

His continued detention is a stain on the conscience of the world and a dangerous precedent that emboldens authoritarian regimes to trample upon the rights of individuals and the sovereignty of nations. The world must act now to end this injustice and stand in solidarity with the Biafra people in our pursuit of freedom and self-determination. Let our cry for justice resonate across the globe until Mazi Nnamdi Kanu is free and the Nigerian government is held accountable for its illegal and oppressive actions.

Since the inception of IPOB, it has exhibited the sole spirit of freedom for the entire black race embodied with righteousness. That has being the reason the IPOB supreme leader will always emphasize that "IPOB is whiter than white and whiter than snow" with no blemish.

IPOB is a well-structured global movement with its foundation laid on the rock of discipline and resilience, which has invited global envy and jealousy from the neo-colonial governments whose policy and duty is to see Africa in abject poverty till eternity.

And the global community understands that IPOB has remained in the chain of indigenous peoples rights to self-determination as charted by United Nations to advocate for people's rights to self determination across the globe. Despite all unavoidable provocation by the Nigerian state, IPOB and Mazi Nnamdi Kanu have remained steadfast on the lane of peaceful dissemination of the Biafran people's plight and our rights to self determination.

As Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi Kanu will always say, there's no way a mass global movement like IPOB can exist without the spirit of Ifeajuna, Ukpabi-Asika etc, the spirit of betrayal and sabotage entering some of us. But IPOB in their wisdom have tenaciously placed the enemies of our struggle to where they belong accordingly.

Though the oppressors in the British royal family and their puppets in Aso rock and in Biafraland will always test our resolve, we have and will continue to remain resolute in the face of these pressing challenges and mountains until Biafra is restored and beyond. One thing is certain, the z00logcal republic of Nigeria will never get tired until we force them, unlike 2015 when Onyendu was first kidnapped in Lagos by the DSS and was remanded in prison, before mid-2017 over 2 mushroom groups had already emerged to override IPOB leadership structure and Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, but IPOB were able to overcome them all.

IPOB is always 1000 steps ahead of time, all these higher and lower mountains we are encountering today was revealed by Mazi Nnamdi Kanu before he was kidnapped in Kenya and extraordinarily renditioned to Nigeria.<!—adsense--> He prepared our minds for days like this, and that is why we are not perturbed anytime a comrade fail by the way side. Our enemies are not happy, and that's why the more stronger IPOB grows, the more it keep outgrowing some internal enemies, you see them falling away on their own without being touched by anyone.

For the past years, IPOB have fought very gallantly on this journey of black emancipation, that's why you see young revolutionaries springing up across Africa, revolting against the imperialists. Courtesy of IPOB Radio Biafra awareness, the secret remains consistent. Some of you may doubt it, but the awareness IPOB has created in Nigeria will make it possible for the indigenous Hausa people to realise how they've been fooled all these years by the Fụ̀lani invaders thus revolution is imminent in the north, same with every other region entrapped in this British experiment called Nigeria. 

IPOB have fought a good fight, the victory is ours just waiting for our crown of victory. So we must remain focused and resolute against detractors and distractions. We have a Greater goal other than discussing irrelevant defeated zoo agents. Just bear in mind that IPOB is a very big institution, if we were able to fight the almighty BBC to a standstill, know that the fire force of IPOB is top-notch. And we must remain unshaken, for the glory we seek in one sight. 

God bless IPOB, the Directorates of States and the Eastern Security Network.

Biafra: Securing the Homeland: Unpacking the Truth About the Eastern Security Network (ESN)

 Biafra: Securing the Homeland: Unpacking the Truth About the Eastern Security Network (ESN) and Its Achievements in Protecting Southeast Nigeria (2020-2022) 

■ Writer: Ezekwereogu Odinaka

■05.03.2025

The Eastern Security Network (ESN) has been the subject of controversy and misinformation in recent times. 

The Nigerian government and some media outlets have labelled the ESN a “criminal” organization, sparking widespread condemnation and concern. However, it is essential to examine the facts and context surrounding the ESN to understand its true nature and objectives. 

Contextualizing the ESN The ESN was established by the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) as a regional security outfit to protect the southeastern region of Nigeria from insecurity and violence. The IPOB leadership argued that the Nigerian government had failed to provide adequate security for the area, leaving it vulnerable to attacks from armed groups and bandits. 

Objectives of the ESN The primary purpose of the ESN is to provide security and protection for the people of the Southeast. They aim to achieve this by: 1. Patrolling the region – ESN operatives patrol forests, roads, and communities to prevent attacks and crimes. 2. Protecting lives and property – The ESN works to safeguard lives and property, particularly in rural areas where government security presence is minimal.

3. Collaborating with local communities – The ESN engages with local communities to gather intelligence and respond to security concerns. Achievements of the ESN Since its inception in 2020, the ESN has made significant strides in securing the region and reducing insecurity. 

Some notable achievements include: • December 2020 – The ESN successfully repelled an attack by armed herdsmen in the Orlu area of Imo State, protecting local farmers and communities. • February 2021 – The ESN collaborated with local vigilantes to apprehend a group of kidnappers along the Abia State axis of the Enugu-Port Harcourt Expressway. • April 2021 – The ESN launched a successful operation to flush out bandits from the forests of Ebonyi State, restoring peace and security to the affected communities. • June 2021 – The ESN worked with the Anambra State government to establish a joint security task force, which has been instrumental in reducing crime and insecurity in the state. • August 2021 – The ESN foiled an attempted attack by unknown gunmen in the Ihiala area of Anambra State, protecting lives and property. • October 2021 – The ESN collaborated with the Imo State government to launch a security operation that led to the arrest of several notorious criminals and the recovery of stolen vehicles. • January 2022 – The ESN successfully repelled an attack by armed herdsmen in the Okigwe area of Imo State, once again protecting local farmers and communities. 

Challenging the “Criminal” Label Labeling the ESN as a “criminal” organization is both misleading and unjust.

While it is possible that some individuals may have engaged in unlawful activities, it is crucial to distinguish between the actions of a few and the overall objectives of the ESN. Furthermore, the Nigerian government’s response to the ESN has been heavy-handed, with reports of human rights abuses, extrajudicial killings, and arbitrary arrests. Such actions have only escalated tensions and contributed to greater insecurity in the region.

 Conclusion The ESN is not a “criminal” organization but rather a regional security outfit established to protect the people of the Southeast. Its achievements in securing the region and safeguarding communities demonstrate its commitment to peace and security. 

By reframing the narrative surrounding the ESN and acknowledging its legitimate objectives, a more constructive path toward regional stability can be achieved. The continued mischaracterization of the ESN as a criminal entity only serves to perpetuate violence and mistrust. It is time to challenge this narrative and seek solutions that foster lasting peace and security in Southeast Nigeria.

Biafra: Restoring Hope: Why Nigeria Needs a New Approach to Tackling Corruption

 Biafra: Restoring Hope: Why Nigeria Needs a New Approach to Tackling Corruption 

■ Writer: Ezekwereogu Odinaka

■ 20.02.2025

The assertion that Nigeria’s corrupt politicians and police officers should be handled the “Chinese way” implies the need for a stricter and more decisive approach to combating corruption. While China’s methods often characterized by swift and severe punishments may not directly apply to Nigeria, the urgency for a radical transformation in Nigeria’s fight against corruption remains indisputable. 

The Deep-Rooted Corruption in Nigeria Corruption is one of Nigeria’s greatest impediments to progress. The police force, an institution meant to uphold justice and security, has been deeply compromised. Senior officers embezzle public funds while lower-ranking officers frequently engage in bribery, extortion, and abuse of power. 

This has led to a complete erosion of public trust, making law enforcement a symbol of oppression rather than protection. The situation is equally dire in the political sphere. Corrupt politicians continue to loot public funds with impunity, diverting resources meant for national development into personal accounts. 

As a result, essential infrastructure and social services remain underfunded and ineffective, perpetuating poverty, inequality, and economic stagnation. A Multifaceted Approach to Fighting Corruption Nigeria cannot afford to maintain the status quo. A comprehensive and strategic approach is necessary to dismantle corruption at all levels. This requires: 1. Strengthening Institutions A strong, independent judicial and anti-corruption system is essential. 

Also Read. Unmasking the Truth: Exposing the Staged “Unknown Gunmen Camp” in Anambra

Law enforcement agencies must be empowered to investigate, prosecute, and convict corrupt officials without interference. Institutions like the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) and the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) must be insulated from political manipulation. 2. Improving Transparency The government must embrace total financial transparency, ensuring that public funds are tracked in real time. 

A publicly accessible budget tracking system should be implemented, allowing citizens and watchdog organizations to monitor government expenditures. 3. Enforcing Accountability with Severe Consequences Without strict consequences, corruption will persist. 

Those guilty of embezzling public funds must face harsh legal penalties, including imprisonment and complete asset forfeiture. Corrupt officials should be permanently barred from holding public office. 4. Public Engagement and Civil Society Action The fight against corruption cannot be left to the government alone. Civil society organizations, the media, and the general public must play an active role in exposing corrupt practices, demanding accountability, and pushing for policy reforms. 

The Grim Reality: Is Nigeria Beyond Saving? Despite these proposed measures, many argue that Nigeria’s deep-rooted corruption makes genuine reform impossible. The system is plagued with nepotism, political interference, and a culture of impunity, making meaningful change seem like a distant dream. 

As long as those in power prioritize self-interest over national progress, corruption will continue to cripple Nigeria’s potential. At this stage, the only real hope lies in the collective will of the people. If Nigerians unite to demand transparency, accountability, and justice, change however difficult remains possible. Otherwise, Nigeria will remain trapped in a cycle of destruction, with its citizens bearing the brunt of a corrupt and failing system.

Introduction Recent reports have surfaced claiming the discovery of an “unknown gunmen camp” in Anambra State. However, upon closer examination, several inconsistencies raise doubts about the authenticity of these claims. 

This article aims to critically analyze the situation and highlight key questions that challenge the official narrative. The Official Narrative According to reports, the camp was allegedly uncovered by security operatives, particularly the “Agu na Eche Mba” group, which was established by Governor Charles Soludo. 

The official account suggests that this group has been working diligently to combat insecurity in the state. A Critical Examination Despite these claims, a deeper analysis reveals several red flags.

The discovery of the camp appears highly convenient, and the lack of transparency surrounding the operation is concerning. Moreover, the direct involvement of the “Agu na Eche Mba” group, an entity linked to Governor Soludo, raises critical questions about possible political motivations behind the operation. 

An Alternative Perspective There is a strong possibility that the alleged discovery of the camp was staged to justify the existence of the “Agu na Eche Mba” group and to enhance Governor Soludo’s security credentials. If true, this would not be the first time security operations have been manipulated for political advantage. Conclusion While discovering an “unknown gunmen camp” in Anambra State might initially appear to be a positive development, it is essential to scrutinize the narrative critically. 

The lack of transparency, the political connections of the security group involved, and the potential for manipulation all cast doubt on the authenticity of these claims. Ultimately, independent investigations and verifiable evidence are crucial to uncovering the truth.
