The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has described as barbaric and disgraceful the attack by South African police against peaceful IPOB protesters.

IPOB said that the action signified proof that state sanctioned politics of savagery has taken firm hold in the administration of the country’s President, Cyril Ramaphosa.

A statement on Thursday by IPOB’s Media and Publicity Secretary, Comrade Emma Powerful, said: “A thoroughly ugly and distasteful development that pales white apartheid regime into insignificance in terms of its brutality and incredulity.

“We hereby place it on record that President Muhammadu Buhari on whose account Cyril Ramaphosa ordered his police to open fire on peaceful Biafran protesters will never know peace, neither will Abba Kyari’s cabal in Aso Rock that have reduced Nigeria to an archetypal impoverished, backward 19th century Fulani emirate.

“Let them know that Buhari will be disgraced, hounded and exposed in every country he sets foot upon even if it happens to be in totalitarian glorified Banana republics in Africa.

“The crass display of primitive police brutality and anti-democratic antecedents of the South African police is confirmation, if any is needed, that black Africa is hopeless and doomed.”

IPOB further said that its leader will in a night broadcast on Radio Biafra at give an in-depth examination and analysis of the unfolding events in South Africa and the conspiracy of silence designed to protect the identity of Jubril Al-Sudani at all cost in return for subsidised crude oil from Biafraland.
