. Mobilises all Nigerians in US against Tinubu’s visit
By Steve Oko
The Indigenous People of Biafra IPoB, has vowed to “fully support” President Donald Trump of the United States of America, “end ethno-religious genocide in Nigeria”.
This is as the pro-Biafra movement, has urged all Nigerians of every tribe resident in the US, to troop out en mass to protest ethno-religious killings during a proposed meeting between President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and President Trump on Tuesday.
A high-powered delegation of the Federal Government, is expected in the US on Tuesday, to meet with President Trump following Trump’s designation of Nigeria as a Country of Particular Concern, CPC, over killing of Christians.
IPoB United States, in a statement made public by Emma Powerful, the group’s Media and Publicity Secretary, said time for all Nigerians to unite against entho-religious attacks had come.
The pro-Biafra movement vowed to resist any attempt by the Federal Government to down-play ethno-religious attacks in different parts of the country during the proposed meeting with Trump.
Below is the text of the statement titled : “Maximum Voltage Activist Alert”:
“A high-level Nigerian delegation is reportedly heading to the United States to polish Nigeria’s battered international image and deceive world leaders into believing that peace, justice, and religious freedom exist in that country. They want to cover the blood.
“We say NO! We will not allow the same government presiding over ethnic cleansing, forced displacement, church burnings, abductions, and mass burials of Indigenous Peoples to rewrite the narrative while the victims are still bleeding.
“This is the hour to raise our voices with thunder, in the capital of the free world.
” We must support President Trump to end ethno-religious genocide in Nigeria.
“For over a decade, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu sounded the alarm about the jihadist expansion, land-grabbing agenda, and systematic extermination targeting Judeo-Christian populations.
They abducted him, tortured him, and locked him away because he refused to be silent while his people were marked for extinction.
“We will honor his sacrifice by taking the truth to Washington, D.C. — loudly.
Why we must mobilise now- not tomorrow!
“Because Indigenous nations across Nigeria are being overrun one after another:
• Hausa ancestral identity erased
• Nupe communities swallowed
• Middle Belt villages wiped out
• Christian lands in Southern Kaduna soaked in blood
• Yoruba communities in Kwara under siege
• Biafraland under constant military occupation
“If we don’t rise, we will be the next headline, the next mass grave, the next “never again” story.
“There is no neutral ground in the face of genocide. Silence is surrender.
Inaction is consent.
“OUR PROTEST WILL BE PEACEFUL — BUT UNMISTAKABLY POWERFUL
This is NOT a violent call.
This is NOT a call for confrontation.
This is a call for a mass, peaceful, unstoppable display of conscience.
“Bring your voice.
Bring your flag.
Bring your faith.
Bring your courage.
“Let the world see a sea of Biafran and Judeo-Christian solidarity in the heart of Washington.
“THIS CALL IS FOR:
■ Every Biafran in the U.S. — your presence is your duty
■ Judeo-Christians — your faith demands you defend the persecuted
■Yoruba Nation, Middle Belt, Idoma, Tiv, Ijaw, Ibibio, and all Indigenous Peoples — stand with us
■Human rights defenders, civil liberty groups, and all people with a conscience — join this march for truth
“No tribe stands alone anymore — unity is our shield.
“OUR MESSAGE TO AMERICA & THE WORLD:
No diplomatic lies can cover mass graves.
No lobbying can erase the tears of widows and orphans.
No propaganda can bury the truth forever.
“The world must hear the cry of the persecuted.
America must stand with the oppressed — not the oppressor.
“DATE, TIME & LOCATION RELEASES NEXT — PREPARE TO MOVE!
Start mobilizing now:
Call your family, your congregation, your networks.
Book your transport.
Make your banners.
“The streets of Washington must feel our footsteps.”
