We’re not responsible for delay in Ifeanyi Uba’s burial– IPOB

The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has distanced themselves from the delay in the burial of late Senator Ifeanyi Uba, who represented the Anambra south senatorial district.

IPOB warned against linking the delay to the IPOB leader, stressing that IPOB and Kanu should be left out of the delay.

In a statement by its media and publicity secretary, Emma Powerful, the group explained that the reason for the delay of the burial is not known to it, adding that the delay is not connected with the kidnapping and rendition of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu from Kenya to Nigeria.

“We have the information of those who bankrolled and sponsored the abduction and rendition of our leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu from Kenya to Nigeria. And we will take an appropriate response at the right time. For now, we are much more concerned with other pressing matters to IPOB.

“It is a known fact that late Senator Ifeanyi Uba stepped on the toes of many Igbo people, particularly his Nnewi people. The delay in his burial is not connected with the kidnapping and rendition of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu. Those who collaborated with the Nigerian government in committing these abominations are still around.

“The Nnewi traditional leaders and their custodians are people of rich culture and traditions. They know why the burial of the late Senator is being delayed.

“No one should link what happened to the IPOB leader to the delay in the burial of the late Ifeanyi Uba. IPOB and Mazi Nnamdi Okwu Kanu should be left out of this traditional quagmire,” the statement said.
