The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has insisted that President Muhammadu Buhari and the Nigerian Army cannot stop its agitation for Biafra.

The group made this known in a statement by its Media and Publicity Secretary, Emma Powerful.

IPOB’s spokesperson said that unless a court of competent jurisdiction in Nigeria declares it a terror group, it is presumed to be a peaceful organisation.

The group said: ”We in IPOB condemn the illegal declaration made by Nigerian army labeling the peaceful freedom fighting organization as IPOB as a terrorist organization. We found the statement made by Nigerian army a laughable and caricature the Nigerian Army is making of itself, we will continue doing what we are doing which is peaceful agitation for Biafra freedom.

”Whatever be the case Nigerian Army has no right or power to labeling IPOB a terrorist group whiles the case still in the court. It is the duty of Nigerian court to decide the case between the Nigerian government and IPOB under the leadership of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.

”It is imperative to remind Nigerians that we are not in doubt that Nigerian government and her security operatives especially the Nigerian army cannot win this battle and don’t have the temerity to label IPOB under the leadership of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu a terrorist group, while the case between the Nigerian government and IPOB is still in the Federal High Court Abuja.”
