The IPOB infiltration of Lagos. Press Release.

The Association of Western Igbo Traders in Lagos under the leadership of Chief Levinus Obiakor has issued a press release on
what he refered to as "
IPOB infiltration of Lagos".

He said he wrote to alert the Police and the Lagos State Government about dangerous developments across Lagos.

He warned that elements whose forebears spurred the Civil war were at it again and according to him, this time in a more dangerous, determined and vicious manner.


"We are compelled to inform the police and the LASG about the presence of IPOB SPECIAL SQUARD IN LAGOS led by one Nnamdi Okereke, a retired Soldier", he stated.

"We are in custody of information that this group has in the past two months brought dangerous weapons to Lagos hidden in several market places in pursuance of the Biafra Agenda".

The SQUARD, according to him also has the mandate to attack Igbo markets and burn them and the strategy was to invoke sympathy for Igbo ahead of the election".

He also continued that their mandate was to cause enough crisis and disaffection among Yoruba and Igbo with the hope that many Yoruba and Igbo will sympathise and vote for Labour Party which they seem to be supporting.

Continuing, he said "The IPOB SPECIAL SQUARD are about 97 well trained men made up of some retired Igbo soldiers, civilians and retired police ratings who belong to the IPOB Western Command with its headquarters in Asaba".

"They also have designed to kill fellow unsuspecting Igbo ahead of the election in order to seek sympathy and portray the Igbo as being attacked by Yoruba and 15 major markets have been marked for attacks". They will also attack Yoruba markets leaving the impression that Igbos are fighting back to spur Yoruba into counter attacks
with a plan to cause national crisis and scuttle the outcome of the last Presidential election while preventing or scuttling the Governorship election come Saturday".

He however stated that they have sought audience with the Lagos State Governor on two occasions without success hence their decision to make it public.

"We would have approached the police but we are not sure of who may be working as agents for IPOB as the grand design is to turn Lagos into turmoil and spur violence across Nigeria.

The group therefore call on the Police, the Lagos State Government to live up to its responsibility by nipping this problem in the bud.
