 Biafra: IPOB call for the release of detained Biafrans in Abia secret cell

IPOB PRESS RELEASE - 4/08/2021


BIAFRANS DETAINED IN SECRET CELLS IN ABIA MUST BE RELEASED OR CHARGED TO COURT - IPOB


We the global family of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) ably led by our great leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu wish to alert the world of the continued and illegal detention of Biafrans by the Nigeria security agencies. It is more provocating that these innocent victims are kept incommunicado in various secret cells out of the reach of friends and family members.


We have just discovered that some of the Biafra agitators abducted by the Nigerian police were kept incommunicado in a secret cell at the Mopol Base, and the State CID Command, Bende Road, Umuahia Abia State. Since six months ago when these innocent Biafrans were abducted, we have been searching for them until now that we have discovered where they were hidden.


Some of the victims includes,  Mazi Friday Ezegbulam a.k.a Nkuwasi who was picked at Umudike junction; Mazi Chamaroke Onwuka, a retired police officer who was picked up in his office along Bende Road Umuahia; and about 35 others arrested mostly in Aba.


We are calling on men and women of conscience across the globe to take record of the atrocities of the wicked Nigerian security agents, and to prevail on the Nigerian Government to release these innocent Biafrans unconditionally. If they won't release these victims let them be charged to court instead of keeping them in detention indefinitely without trial.

We also call on the Abia State Governor and his officials to ensure these innocent Biafrans are either released or charged to court without further delay. They have suffered enough, and their continued detention without trial will no longer be tolerated.


The Nigerian law recommends that a suspect be charged to court within 24 hours. But the Nigerian security agencies have a penchant of flaunting the laws once Biafra is involved. They are scared of bandits and terrorists but derive pleasure in killing and torturing peaceful Biafran agitators.

Tattered Beauty on the Street of Motherland









~ By Ikenna Ozulumba Mbaegbu



l saw the act
So rough but pretty
l called her paragon
Of beauty and eloquent
That gift of human
That  never seized to occur
In every man's lips,
Pose ruggedly on the street laughing
Seriously without season
So happy in face
So sad in thought
Her choice is stunning
The flag of her hobby
Designed with many colours
Red and black
Yellow and green
Smiling around her waist
Pleading for freedom
From heartless men of greedy

The quest< is open
Just like the appearance
Of her beauty
That glows
Like the candle light,
On a clear night
Though, she's not too tall
And not too small
Not vocal and serious
Yet chant freedom! freedom!!
In her funny way


br /> Her laughs so nice
But agony in disguise,
Her mind so empty
Like a deserted street
But knows the direction
Of the  wind when it blows

Yes, when the
Inner thought visits
And she laughs
She moves in contact with
The ocean of wretchedness,
And slavery she swims along
With the people of the land
The suffering  hidden
From the eyes of the world


Sometimes,
like one in a trance
She will stand to dance
To and flo she will prance
As she claps and laughs
All to herself,
Neither aware of the onlookers
Nor is she dancing to the tune
Of the market music
But to her song of lullaby,
Her only song of lullaby,
That only her knows the lyrics,
And whatever that sings for her,
None ever can tell.


Her name, Nwaka
A true daughter
Of the soil
Who basks in turmoil,
Whose joy has long gone
And sadness there to taunt her on.


Her name, Nwaka,
A Biafran Mad woman
A child of heaven
Walking among the living
Existing, but not truly living.
