IPOB Mobilizing to Humiliate Buhari as He Arrives in U.S - Northern Leaders Raise Alarm
Alleged plans by the Nnamdi Kanu-led Indigenous People of Biafra to humiliate President Muhammadu Buhari who has arrived New York for the UN Assembly has been uncovered.

Northern leaders have raised an alarm that the embattled leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, has mobilized Nigerians living in the United States to attack President Muhammadu Buhari who had arrived the country to address the 72nd United Nations General Assembly.
 
According to a report by Vanguard, the Arewa people under the aegis of Coalition of Northern Groups (CNG), alleged on Sunday in a mail that the plan by IPOB sponsors was to humiliate President Buhari, who is billed to speak at UNGA.
 
In the mail signed by the Spokesman for the CNG, Abdul-Azeez Suleiman, the northern leaders said that the action was also intended to further provoke the northerners and incite the world against the Nigerian leader and his government.
 
The northern group vowed to make appropriate response to the IPOB provocation by taking its position against he antic of the proscribed organization to the UN.
 
The northern group however hailed the South-East governor’s for proscribing IOPB once it was declared a terrorist group by the Defense Headquarters, saying that they had been vindicated by such declarations.
 
CNG also lauded the governments of Abia, Rivers and Plateau States for promptly arresting the move by IPOB to set the country on war path and kill innocent Nigerians in the process.
 
The northern group said, “We must state here that our position that IPOB be proscribed, its activities be declared as acts of terror, and its leaders be accordingly treated in the interest of a greater, peaceful and united Nigeria has to a large extent been vindicated which is also reassuring and encouraging.

“We also wish to state that we have a priviledged information that IPOB sponsors are mobilizing their members in the Diaspora to humiliate our dear President Muhammadu Buhari in New York where he is billed to address the United Nations General Assembly.

“We call on Nigerians to as well overlook this planned unpatriotic action by the IPOB supporters as it is nothing but another antic to provoke reactions.

“We assure all peace loving Nigerians that CNG is also preparing to counter IPOB’ foreign propaganda efforts by compiling relevant facts to be presented personally to the UN soon.

“Finally, we reiterate the call for calm and tolerance as the authorities diligently carry out their duties.”
