IPOB, MOSSOB Members Arrested In Ebonyi by caremaster: 12:43pm On May 27, 2017 |
The Police in Ebonyi on Saturday confirmed the arrest of some members of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) in various part of the state for alleged unlawful sensitisation programme. The command’s spokesman, DSP Jude Madu, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Saturday that the arrested suspects also included members of the Movement for the Actualisation of the Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB). Madu said that the suspects were arrested for unlawfully sensitising the public to stay at home on May 30, in observance of the group anniversary. “They would be charged to court and the command would ensure that they are duly prosecuted to serve as a deterrent to others. “IPOB and MASSOB are illegal groups and did not get permission from the police to embark on such exercise which threatens the peace and security of the state. “The command with the directive of the Commissioner of Police, Mr Titus Lamorde, has commenced intensive sensitisation of the populace to disregard the sit-at-home directive and go about their lawful businesses,” he said. Madu warned members of the group not to carry out outlawed activities within the state before, during and after May 30, as the full weight of the law would be brought on any defaulter. “Any person or group found culpable would be arrested and duly prosecuted as the groups’ activities amount to mutiny or fighting a sitting and legally recognised government. “IPOB and MASSOB are techniques developed by some individuals to gain public interest and recognition as the former is even a breakaway organ of the latter. “These groups have not provided amenities or other forms of social security for the people they are directing to stay at home; it shows that their intentions are not sincere and must be rejected by all,” he said. He advised the groups that not everybody was interested in issues concerning secession as people still remember the horrors of the civil war and other upheavals in the country after then. According to him, they should realise that most people are not interested in their preaching, therefore, they should not force anybody to be involved in their illegal and unlawful practices. Madu called on traditional rulers and town unions across the state to assist the police in sensitising the people and provide relevant information about the group’s activities. “The command has distributed various call contacts (numbers) to the public to report activities of these groups within this period, especially molestation, if they refuse heeding to the stay-at home order. “Any gathering of two or more people propagating the IPOB/MASSOB messages or executing related activities should be promptly reported to the police for immediate actions,” he said. A NAN Correspondent who visited the state police command reports that the arrested IPOB members were upbeat and chanting solidarity songs. http://www.nigerianewspaper.com.ng/2017/05/ipob-mossob-members-arrested-in-ebonyi.html

How to stay motivated ? In the jungle which animal is the biggest ........ I heard you say, Elephant. In the jungle which animal is the tallest ........ I heard you say, Giraffe. In the jungle which animal is the wisest ........ I heard you say, Fox. In the jungle which animal is the fastest ........ I heard you say, Cheetahs. Among all these wonderful qualities mentioned, where is the Lion in the picture.? Yet, you say the Lion is the KING of the jungle even without ANY of these qualities.!! Why?? Because... The Lion is courageous, The Lion is very bold, The Lion is always ready to face any challenges,any barrier that crosses his path, no matter how big/bad they are.!! The Lion walks with confidence. The Lion dares anything and is never afraid. The Lion believes he is unstoppable. The Lion is a risk taker. The Lion believes any animal is food for him. The Lion believes any opportunity is worth giving a try and never lets it slip from his hands. The Lion has charisma.!! So... - What is it that we get to learn from the Lion ?? • You don't need to be the fastest. • You don't need to be the wisest. • You don't need to be the smartest. • You don't need to be the most brilliant. • You don't need to be generally accepted to achieve your dreams and be great in life.!! • All you need is *courage* • All you need is *boldness* • All you need is the will to try. • All you need is the faith to believe it is possible. • All you need is to believe in yourself, that *you can* do it.!! It's TIME to bring out the Lion in you..!! Stay motivated. "Face the terrible, face it boldly" 2 Likes |

Enough of the deplorable raucous by the zoo police, why should they arrest members of IPOB on sensitization campaign? Or is that not an impediment on the democratic rights of freedom of speech and expression? All I can say is ZOO! ZOO!! ZOO!!! |
