IPOB Members World-wide Should Be Arrested -CAC

A group known as the Citizens Action for Change (CAC) has welcomed

the police arrest order placed on identified leaders of the Islamic Movement

in Nigeria (IMN) across the country. A protestor holds a banner in front of a

Biafra flag as he takes part in a demonstration in Durban, South Africa, on May 30,

2019 during a Freedom March for Biafra held worldwide and organised by the

Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) to mark the anniversary of the unilateral declaration

of independence in 1967 that sparked a brutal 30-month civil war in Nigeria.

of special police to dismantle the structures of the IMN in the country immediately.

Adamu, in a signal to the operatives dated August 30, 2019, said the force would not

allow the Shi’ites to violate the proscription of the IMN by the court. Commenting on

this at a press conference in Abuja on Monday, Ayokunle Bakare, president of the group,

said the same should treatment be meted upon the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).

The Citizens group, therefore, called on IMN and its leaders to willingly submit themselves

to the relevant authorities to facilitate speedy trial for whatever crime they are complicit

of. In IPOB’s case, however, members across the world, not limited to Nigeria, should be

arrested and made to face the consequences of their atrocities.
