Governor of Abia state, Okezie Ikpeazu is set to meet with President
Muhammadu Buhari, over the activities of the Indigenous People of Biafra
(IPOB) in the South East.
This was contained in a statement posted on Facebook, by Ikpeazu’s Senior Special Assistant on Public Communication, Sam Hart.
It comes after the Governor reached an agreement with the Nigerian Army , for troops to be withdrawn from Aba and Umuahia.
Part of the statement read: “With the expected exit of soldiers from
the streets, we must warn that we will not tolerate agitators and
protesters taking over the streets for any reason at all.
“I will also be meeting the President and Commander-in-Chief of the
Armed Forces, President Mohamaudu Buhari, to discuss possible ways of
relaxing the Operation Python dance 11 in the state for now.”
Ikpeazu also sounded a note of warning to the agitators, stating that
“Members and sympathizers of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB)
should henceforth desist from spreading false rumors capable of throwing
our state into disorder. Those spreading such falsehood will be dealt
with, according to the Law.”
