The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), weekend, appealed to President Nana Akufo-Addo of Ghana to facilitate release of some members of the group who were arrested in Ghana.
Mazi Chukwuemeka Nzurumike, deputy head of the Directorate of State (DHOD), while reacting, claimed that the government of Nigeria masterminded the arrest of “innocent Biafrans” who were exercising their universal right to self-determination.
He stated that, “Their freedom was arbitrarily violated recently in what appeared to be in connivance” with Abuja.
“We call on our friendly nation, Ghana, to countermand this unsusceptible approach that reduces the Ghanaian graceful creed that sums up in defence of freedom, rights, and crave for true humility.
“The Directorate of State of the Indigenous People of Biafra wishes to familiarize all and sundry that relentless efforts are being deployed in ensuring the total release of the innocent Biafran citizens with legal domiciliation in Ghana. Their freedom was arbitrarily violated recently in what appeared to be in connivance with the oppressive and crumbling regime in Abuja.
