Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, on Wednesday, insisted that Nnamdi Kanu remained the supreme leader of the group.<\/p>\n

IPOB warned that anyone parading himself as the new leader of the group was an impostor and a fraud.<\/p>\n

In a statement signed by its spokesman, Emma Powerful, the separatist group stressed that Kanu\u2019s leadership role was divinely orchestrated.<\/p>\n

Powerful said: \u201cWe the Indigenous People of Biafra wish to unequivocally state that we have one and only one leader and he is the indefatigable and indomitable liberator of our time, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu. Anybody claiming to be a new leader of IPOB is not only an impostor but also a fraud and should be disregarded and discarded into a waste bin.<\/p>\n

\u201cTo lead this great IPOB family is neither by talking nor is it by the personal wish of any individual, it is rather a heavenly mandated calling and CHUKWUOKIKEABIAMA chose Kanu to lead his children out of bondage into freedom.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnybody being fronted by the Nigerian DSS to parade him\/herself as IPOB\u2019s new leader is simply embarking on a self-destructive venture.<\/p>\n

\u201cIPOB has no other leader than our supreme leader KANU. Irrespective of where he is today, he remains our Supreme leader and founder of IPOB worldwide, and IPOB is united and intact under his Command. The DOS, which is the highest institutional Structure set up by our leader Kanu, is coordinating the affairs of IPOB and is completely loyal to Mazi Nnamdi Kanu so nobody should contemplate creating issues where non exist.\u201d<\/p>\n

IPOB accused its enemies of creating confusion among its members, but they would be resisted.<\/p>\n

There has been controversy over Kanu\u2019s role as the leader of IPOB.<\/p>\n

Kanu was reported to have been removed as IPOB\u2019s Director and replaced with one Sofia Chinyere Kalu.<\/p>\n

Mrs Kalu is said to be the group\u2019s Financial Secretary in the UK.<\/p>\n

According to Ezeji Chukwuma, a separatist who manages IPOB and Radio Biafra Community Interest Companies (CIC) Registry in London, UK, Kalu is the new Director of IPOB worldwide.<\/p>\n
