In a statement signed by Emma Powerful, the IPOB spokesman, the group stated this on Friday.

“Our intelligence unit, the M. Branch, has discovered that Hope Uzodinma is responsible for the deaths of innocent Imo State residents. To demonise IPOB and impress their Fulani slavemasters, he and his co-traitors created a fake Eastern Security Network, ESN, which they are using to terrorise the people and give a false impression that IPOB and ESN have gone violent.”

Some of the other masterminds behind the current state of affairs were also named by the secessionist group.

“To show them that we are ahead of them, we boldly publish the names and phone numbers of those he is using to recruit fake ESN operatives in Imo State,” IPOB added. The affected agents are well aware that we are familiar with them.”

“These traitors, along with others, are responsible for the inexplicable killings and political assassinations in Imo State. They want to discredit IPOB by linking us to their crimes, but they won’t get away with it. Their evil will catch up with them in no time.

“These assassins were hired by Hope Uzodinma to kill Imo citizens to bring ESN, a divine outfit founded by our leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu to protect and secure our ancestral land against Fulani terrorists posing as herders, into disrepute.”
