Tuesday 7 September 2021: The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has declared that President Muhammadu Buhari is not welcomed to the Southeast.

IPOB Director of Socials, Chika Edoziem, made the remark while ordering a sit-at-home in protest of Buhari’s visit to Imo State on Thursday.

Edoziem, who is one of IPOB executives, disclosed this during a broadcast on Monday evening.

According to Edoziem: “Nigeria’s president is not welcome in Imo State, Biafra Land on Thursday, September 9, 2021.

“All the traditional rulers, all ndi iche and every Biafran should stay away from any ceremony organised by Hope Uzodimma to welcome him.”

Uzodinma had said Buhari would commission “significant projects” while in the state.
