Masterclass32:
IGBO Activists under the
auspices of “Igbo Civil Society
Coalition (ICSCO) on Saturday
met in Enugu and faulted the
Federal Government for
branding members of Indigenous People of Biafra
(IPOB) as terrorists.

In a communiqué signed by the
National Coordinator of the
coalition groups, Professor Obasi
Igwe and the Convener, Mazi
Ikechukwu Bismarck Oji, the
human rights activists stated, “The ICSCO fully recognizes and
respects everyone’s right to
peaceful self-determination in
line with extant international
laws.

According to them, “the
declaration of an unarmed and
nonviolent group as a terrorist
organization is an afterthought
whose basic intention is to
shield those committing genocide and ethnic cleansing
against Ndigbo from
prosecution at the International
Criminal Court (ICC) and divert
attention from the bad
governance and attempts to truncate the democratic process
in Nigeria”

The Communiqué further read in
parts: “The ICSCO totally
condemns the use of state
terrorism to create a unilateral
state of war in Igbo land and
intimidate, gag and silence the Igbo nation from self-expression
in Nigeria.

‘That the purported
proscription of IPOB by South
East Governors, aside being
illegal, is against the
fundamental human rights of
the group.

“Terrorism is a premeditated
armed attack on non-belligerent
targets and neither Mazi Nnamdi
Kanu, IPOB or any other Pro-
Biafran group has done this or
procured arms to do so. Contrarily, it is the Fulani
herdsmen, who have been a
bloody war against farmers and
communities that should be
appropriately so labelled and
tackled decisively more so since they are ranked 4th on the
Global Terror Index (GTI).

“We note that most of the
Commanders currently
executing the “Operation
Python Dance”, and who have
been accused of committing acts
of torture, murder and genocide in Aba, Umuahia and other parts
of Igboland came from a single
tribal/ religious group long
accused of using the “The
Nigerian Army” to pursue their
ethnic, religious and sectional objectives.

“The case against Mazi Nnamdi
Kanu is already in court and
jumping the legal process to use
extra judicial means to deal with
any section of Nigeria while
looking the other way at terrorist and ethnic cleansing
programmes being committed
against various Nigerians must
remain condemned before the
Nigerian constitution,
international law and various conventions to which Nigeria is
signatory.

“The ICSCO formally brings to
the notice of the National
Assembly and the international
community, the unprovoked
and unwarranted genocide and
ethnic cleansing being levelled against Ndigbo and urge them
to compel the immediate
withdrawal of the Army from
Igbo land and bring to speedy
justice those responsible for the
murder, torture and killing of unarmed Igbo civilians.

“We continue to appeal to
members of IPOB to keep calm
and not to take the law into
their own hands. Rather, they
should endeavour to record and
document all acts of torture, murder and other crimes
against humanity perpetrated
by the military against their
members for purposes of
seeking legal redress.

“Similarly, in the face of the
current development, we call on
Ndigbo to remain peaceful,
vigilant, patient and go about
their businesses in a lawful
manner.
