IPOB PRESS RELEASE
06/04/2023
We, the global family and movement of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) ably led by the great and indefatigable leader Mazi Nnamdi Okwuchukwu KANU draw the attention of Biafrans resident in Lagos and other parts of Nigeria to come back home and be counted during this forthcoming population census. We will use the coming census exercise organized by the Nigeria government to ascertain the population and the size of amenities we needed in Biafra Territory.
The mass return of our people during this forthcoming
population census will help us quantify the population of Biafrans in
Nigeria. Therefore, we must cease the
opportunity Nigeria government is offering to our benefit. They have always
told the world that we are a dot with an insignificant population. Now is the
time to let the world know the population of Biafrans in Nigeria as Biafra
agitation is gathering international attention and speed. Biafra is coming, and
no one can stop it. IPOB is gradually dismantling all obstacles to our freedom,
and this population census will provide another opportunity to collect more
evidence to that effect.
Those who disenfranchised Biafrans during the last
fraudulent elections should never be allowed to use us to boost their
population again. They have always used Biafran's population for a higher allocation
yet deny Biafrans opportunity to freely participate in the national issues drim
their territories. It's time we use our tongue to count our teeth. Therefore, IPOB is calling every Biafran
resident in Lagos and other parts of Nigeria to travel back to the East and be
counted in their home state. Kindly disregard any announcement from any
quarter, especially from government agencies asking people not to go back to
their state of origin during the census. Don't let them deceive you. It's the
same agenda to keep falsifying and decieving the world that we are a small dot
in the contraption.
Should there be any reason why you can't travel to Biafra
land to be counted, make sure you and your family members are not counted
outside Biafra Land. We must prove them wrong once and for all.
IPOB will engage Transport Owners to urge them to be part of
this project so that those willing to travel to the East to be counted can do
so. We are calling on all well-meaning Igbo business Men and women,
Entrepreneurs, Senators, Ministers,
Commissioners, House of Assembly Members from the Eastern States to
contribute in one way or the other to ensure that our people come back home
during this population census exercise.
Ohaneze Ndigbo worldwide and Governors of Biafra land must
show that they are concerned about the humiliation our people have been
subjected to in this country. Our people's mass return during this population
census to be counted among us have many benefits which includes; validating our
majority population in Nigeria that has been manipulated, used, and abused for
the attraction of higher allocation from the Federal government to other states in the past, but can now help
us plan for the amenities required in Biafraland like international markets and
industrial parks. Most importantly, an accurate count of our people will help
boost the Biafra Independence movement.
We know that our enemies will want to continue in their
age-long census manipulation that they started in 1948, but we will put a
strategy in place to capture our true population figure during this particular
census. As usual, they will manipulate the true population figures when it gets
to the National Population Council office in Abuja. But before then, our people must have captured
our true population data from each village to each local government and all the
levels. It's our responsibility to tell
the world our population size that has been manipulated in favour of other states
for many years in the past.
The 2023 population census is coming, and we encourage all
Biafrans outside Biafra land to return to their home to be counted. This will
be part of the mock referendum to show our international friends the true
population of Biafra. All Traditional
Rulers, PGs, and Village Heads should ensure that our population is counted,
captured, and the population data protected for reference purposes. EVERY
BIAFRAN LIVING IN LAGOS ESPECIALLY IN LAGOS MUST COME HOME AND ENSURE THEY DID
NOT COUNT HIM OR HER IN LAGOS THEY NEED US AND WE MUST GO. If you are not
coming home make sure you are not counted in Lagos.
