The group in a statement jointly signed by spokespersons of IPOB, Emma Nmezu and Dr. Clifford Iroanya on Thursday, September 1, described the alleged effort by the DSS to cause confusion within its ranks as a misadventure that will backfire.
It said: “President Muhammadu Buhari and his DSS travelled on this road to infamy by creating fake groups and christening them ‘Indigenous People of Biafra’ with diverse deceptive prefixes such RE-IPOB, TRI-POB, BUHARI-POB, OKOROCHA-POB, and OHANEZE-POB.
“The Federal Government has done a very bad job as a propagandist. In conjunction with agents of DSS, the government in its propaganda misadventure must have succeeded in enraging outstanding propagandists such as Joseph Goebbels, Muhammad Saeed al-Sahhaf, and Gaddafi’s Moussa Ibrahim.

The group challenged the promoters of the “fake RE-IPOB, TRI-POB, BUHARI-POB, OKOROCHA-POB, and OHANEZE-POB,” to publish the real photographs of those behind the pseudo organisations for the world to see, adding that all principal officers and citizens of IPOB under the leadership of Nnamdi Kanu bear their real names and have family histories as well as real photographs of themselves.
It said: “The most intriguing aspect of this dance of shame is the use of pseudonyms that are both outlandish and laughable at the same time. For instance, the spokesperson of the Buhari/DSS-POB’s goes by the name Ikemba Biafra.
IPOB said recently, another fictitious name was concocted as “Jonathan Kurubo” purportedly from Igbogene, a community close to River Nun in Bayelsa state.
Meanwhile, the Movement for Actualisation of Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB) has said it won’t be part of any negotiation to end its agitations.
According to the group, the over 17 years of struggle for the actualisation of Biafra cannot be halted.
In a statement distributed to media houses by the group’s national director of information, Comrade Samuel Edeson. the group frowned at the inclusion of its leader name as part of a delegation to negotiate with the federal government.
