Obiano spits fires, restates stand on IPOB

Anambra State Governor Willie Obiano on Sunday said his government is in total support of the decisions of the South-East governors outlawing the activities of the Indigenous People of Biafra.

Obiano disclosed this in a statement by his commissioner for information and strategy, Tony Nnacheta.

He added there would be no hiding place for mischief makers and anyone seeking to disturb the peace in Anambra.

The governor advised the people of the state to be vigilant.

“Sequel to the decision of the South-East Governors Forum, which met on the 15th of September, 2017, at Enugu, where amongst other decisions, was the proscription of the activities of Indigenous People of Biafra, the government of Anambra State wishes to state as follows: Government aligns itself with the clarion call from the South-East governors advising all persons with grievances and anxiety to transmit their position through prescribed channels of elected representatives to the forum.

“Government is also firmly in support of the restructuring agenda as announced by the Governors Forum and encourages Ndi Anambra to articulate their thoughts to follow through on this issue.

“The safety of Ndi Anambra and all residents in Anambra, the security of their lives, properties and environment are cardinal priorities of the Willie Obiano administration which has ensured that everyone goes about freely within our environment without hindrance,” the governor said in the statement.
