āIPOB is not happy with these criminal activities going on in our region because we donāt want this to continue and we are going to expose those behind this evil in the region. We have made it clear to the public severally that IPOB members are not unknown gunmen and we cannot be because we have objective which is to restore Biafra as a free, independent, and sovereign nation.
