The crack in the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra IPOB has widened as the broadcaster of Radio Biafra, Simon Ekpa has thrown punches at the spokesperson of IPOB, Emma Powerful, describing him as a faceless criminal, 9news Nigeria reports.
This follows a statement released by Emma Powerful in which he mentioned some names of Igbo youths, accusing them of being behind the killings in the Orlu senatorial zone of Imo State and the South-East in general.
Ekpa in a series of tweets on Wednesday urged the public to ignore the list, noting that nothing credible can come from Emma Powerful, whom he described as a faceless person.
He accused Emma Powerful of listing Biafrans he has issues with as criminals, saying he is behind the murder of youths in the South East region.
“My attention has been drawn to a press release by one Emma Powerful where names of Igbo youths were listed as those behind insecurity in the SE. Please, disregard any report from a faceless criminal, my experience so far suggests nothing credible can come from such a faceless person “The faceless criminal without identity has committed a crime against humanity as he continues to list Biafrans that have issues with them as criminals. We can’t allow such to continue to happen going forward, they’ve targeted, murdered our youths unchecked time to stop them is now,” he said.
