Aloy Ejimakor, the Special Counsel to Biafra political activist, Nnamdi Kanu and the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has slammed Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike for the recent occurrences in Oyigbo town, saying it “will surely perturb Wike for the rest of his life”.
Afriupdate had earlier reported that there was a confrontation between members of the outlawed IPOB and Nigerian security agents during the recent #EndSARS protests.
While some people recently accused soldiers attached to the 6 Division in Rivers State of harassment in Oyigbo, the army has, however, maintained that it has been professional in trying to retrieve weapons looted from its dead colleagues and arrest the attackers who committed the crime.
Governor Wike had gone tough on IPOB, much to the displeasure of their ardent supporters.
“When Gov Nyesom Wike ordered ‘Rivers indigenes’ to ‘fish out IPOB members’ and followed it with ‘I am not Igbo, Ikwerre is not Igbo’, he meant to single out NDIGBO for the slaughter & it succeeded at Obigbo, Ejimakor write on his known Twitter handle on Sunday.
“It’s a pogrom that will surely perturb Wike for the rest of his life.”

Recall that the leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Mazi Nnamdi Kanu made a solemn utterance intended to invoke a supernatural power to inflict harm, saying ‘the same way Nigerian authority killed Ken Saro-Wiwa, the late environmental activist, so shall they do to Governor Wike of Rivers.
Self-exiled Kanu put the curse on Wike, who is currently tackling the controversial IPOB.

Wike had promised to take holistic measures to stop IPOB activities.
This made Kanu infuriated with Governor Wike.
“Wike, I am laying a curse on you, that you may know that The Almighty sent me,” Kanu said at the time during his routine online broadcast.
“The same way Fulani rejected Ken Saro-Wiwa at the right time, and killed him, so shall they do to you – if we don’t get you first.”
IPOB is a separatist organization in Nigeria.
Its main aim is to restore an independent state of Biafra in the former Eastern Region of Nigeria through an independence referendum.
