 Editorial: The Shameful Antagonistic Political Analysis of DW News Media Against IPOB

The Indigenous people of Biafra (IPOB), as a movement, has over the years, shown proofs to the world of her willingness to live freely and govern herself to the best of her ability. It has come to a point when the world will take a stand of fairness and justice in handling the issues concerning the Indigenous people of Biafra (IPOB). IPOB has never been a secessionist group but a people inalienably indigenous to the land of BIAFRA located in the West African sub-region. 

The consistent tag of IPOB as a secessionist group is a blackmail to the most widely travelled and advanced African race on the face of the Earth at present. Our survival and our collective determination to govern ourselves as a people through the legitimate Civil right of REFERENDUM does not in any way, make us a secessionist group because Nigeria is a country of diverse value systems forcefully amalgamated in 1914 without the consent of the indigenous civilian populations of the North and South.

Deutsche Welle (DW) Germany English International News must toe the line of ethics in her correspondence to journalism especially on its discussion and analysis of the Biafran restoration. The interview which Deutsche Welle (DW) News held with a Fulani security analyst, Kabir Adamu, on the incarceration of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and the terror activities of the Nigerian government on the indigenous Biafran people, is a show of ethnic bigotry and blackmail. It is unacceptable and IPOB completely faults it's approval. 

First of all, DW News must understand that for an analysis or correspondence to be void of sentiments, those who are directly involved should be the target audience. The political interview of Kabir Adamu a Nigerian Security analyst of Fulani extraction and his subsequent analysis telling the world that there is a back channel with which the Nigerian government is applying to negotiate with the Indigenous people of Biafra (IPOB), is totally unfounded and baseless. 

Senate Eyinnaya Abaribe has never been the mouth piece of the Indigenous People of Biafra but only stood as a surety for Mazi Nnamdi Kanu on the ground of bail bonds and nothing more. The baseless storyline that the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu jumped bail is sad and totally unacceptable. The world and all media outlets must understand that Mazi Nnamdi Kanu never jumped bail but escaped assassination attempt on his life, from the invasion of the Nigerian military of his home on the 14 of September 2017, with overwhelming evidence readily available.

The antagonistic account, view and comments of Kabir Adamu that only a few people within the Eastern part of Nigeria are in support of the self-determination effort of IPOB, is most shameful. On the 31st of May 2021, which was the Remembrance Day of Biafran Fallen Heroes and Heroines, the whole world witnessed the total compliance of the "Sit-at-Home" celebration which completely cut across all sections of Biafraland. Businesses and social activities were crippled completely on that day to show the world that it is a collective agreement of the people determined to exit the Nigerian contraption.

Finally, on the baseless storyline that the Eastern Security Network (ESN), which is a vigilante outfit for the defense of Biafraland from the invasion of the fourth most deadliest terrorist group in the world, Fulani herdsmen, it should be clear to all and sundry that ESN does not engage in arms deal. The theory that the Eastern Security Network and the military wing of the Ambazonians exchange trade deals in ammunition is disgustingly unfounded and fallacious.

The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), hereby urge the media outlet of DW News to consciously toe the path of truth in her defense of the fourth estate. The views of Kabir Adamu against IPOB is shameful and dishonest. It goes to prove to the global community that the political foundation and security structure of Nigeria is faulty and must not be taken seriously.

IPOB has been a peaceful movement all around the world on her demand for self-determination and deserves an unreserved apology from DW News Media as well as an immediate Rejoinder to discuss with the leadership of IPOB on her strategies and alliances.
