Ultimately, results in recent months have placed us in a precarious league position and we felt a change is necessary to give us the best chance of retaining Premier League status.

March 17, 2023 IPOB Decries Terrorism Ratings, Accuses Federal Government of Propaganda

IPOB Decries Terrorism Ratings, Accuses Federal Government of Propaganda

The Indigenous People of Biafra has decried the IEP Global Terrorism Index Report of 2022 as a conspiracy by the Federal Government of Nigeria and its Cronies to paint the group in bad light.

IPOB was reacting to the report by the Institute for Economics and Peace, which had rated it number 10 “deadliest terror group” globally.

In a statement on Thursday, IPOB’s Media and Publicity Secretary, Emma Powerful, said it was disappointing that a reputable organisation such as IEP would descend so low to publish “fictional and inaccurate accounts in their 2022 terrorism index report”.

IPOB said an extract from the report released by the global research group showed a great contradiction from what was supposed to be assumed as a research and investigatory group.

Powerful, therefore, insisted that IPOB remained peaceful but resolute in the pursuit of Biafra liberation through a UN-supervised referendum, adding that they were not going to be distracted by sponsored blackmail and propaganda.
