The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has warned General Superintendent of Deeper Christian Life Ministry, Pastor William Kumuyi, to shelve his planned crusade in Aba state in view of current security challenges in South East geopolitical zone.
Media and Publicity Secretary of IPOB, Comrade Emma Powerful, gave the advice in a statement.
The church had planned to hold a crusade in Aba, Abia State between May 24 and 29.
According to the group, criminals could invade the venue of the crusade, wreak havoc and blame it on IPOB.
IPOB said it would not fold its arms and allow lives to be wasted because of the crusade.
The proscribed group urged Kumuyi and Christians to pray for an end to the security challenges in the South East.
“The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), ably led by our great leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu wish to advise Pastor Kumuyi of Deeper life Ministry to take note of the security situation in the South East as he comes to Aba for his gospel crusade. Let him and the organizers of the crusade make sure that nothing happens.
“The security of this region is not good because of political and criminal activities. Therefore, we advise him to stop this crusade for security reasons. We equally want them to be united against the Islamic agenda against non Muslims in Nigeria. We had expected them to demand justice for the innocent Deborah Yakubu burnt alive by Muslim fanatics in Sokoto State.
“Her killers are walking freely today and 34 lawyers shamelessly volunteered to defend her killers but Christians are just watching them. The double faced Nigeria security agencies only managed to arrest two of her killers because they are Muslims. If it were to be in Biafra land, all the youths on the street will be in police cell by now while the unlucky ones would have been killed.
“How many Igbo or Christian lawyers came to defend our Leader fighting for the freedom of all Biafrans but 34 Muslim lawyers have come in defense of killers of Deborah Yakubu? Is it not time Christians and Men of God woke up to the realities in Nigeria? They should support Biafra and Oduduwa agitators in their bid to free Biafra and Oduduwa republics from the Islamic bondage in Nigeria so that they will enjoy freedom of worship in both republics.
“Leah Shuaibu is still in captivity today because she is a Christian but all the Muslims abducted along with her have since been freed. Christians must support IPOB to liberate them from bondage in Nigeria.”
IPOB stated that wicked leaders in the South East were the real problems of the zone, and urged Kumuyi to pray against them.
“Let him use the opportunity to pray against the powers holding people captive in Nigeria in his church in Lagos,” the group further said.
