The Indigenous People Of Biafra (IPOB), has replied the Nigerian Army over claims that they are behind the circulation of the video showing Boko haram killing millitary personnels.
In a statement made available by the Spokesman of the group, Emma Powerful, it warned the Army not to “drag” the group into its “pitiful plight”, in the fight against Boko Haram.
The security agency alleged that IPOB doctored the video as a tool for propaganda and that the incident did not happen in Nigeria.
“It is quite pathetic how the Nigerian army would belittle themselves in the eyes of the world by involving IPOB in their futile attempt to deflect attention from their failed effort to fight terrorism.
“The Nigerian Army must understand that Biafra is not Nigeria. IPOB have more important things to do that engaging in doctoring a video that is so clear for all to see.
“The video of Boko Haram torturing and humiliating the Nigerian Army … is real and verifiable. IPOB has nothing to do with the trending video.
“This shameful statement from Nigeria Army proves that the Nigeria Army and her sister security outfits in Nigeria have lost control of their phony war against Boko Haram and as usual are looking to blame IPOB for their pitiful plight,” Powerful said in a statement.
