A 27 year old man, Kingsley Amaobi Egbujor, has reportedly renounced his membership of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) over the death of his father and elder brother, who were also members.

Making this disclosure in Onitsha, Anambra state, Tuesday, while reacting to another sit-at-home (Tuesday) in the state and the entire Southeast zone, an uncle to Kingsley, Chief Emeakachie Egbujor, recalled that, “my nephew, Kingsley Amaobi Egbujor, renounced his membership of IPOB because his father and elder brother who were IPOB members were killed by Nigeria security men”.

Giving a graphic account of how they were killed, he said that the son joined his father and brother in the IPOB protest at Nkpor, Idemili North Local Government Area to actualize a sovereign state of Biafra and stop Fulani terrorists’ invasion of Igbo land.

“The trio of father, elder brother and Kingsley Amaobi Egbujor also participated in the Nkpor IPOB protest where Nigerian military killed scores of members on March 29th, 2016.

“My brother, who is Kingsley Amaobi Egbujor’s father, escaped to our village in Imo State and out of fear ran away from there and not seen again until his corpse and that of one of his associates were found in Ekiti State, allegedly butchered by suspected Fulani terrorists even as some of his associates were killed by the military in Nkpor.

He disclosed further that, “Kingsley Amaobi Egbujor’s elder brother and his friends were arrested by soldiers from Onitsha military cantonment and brought to military barracks Onitsha and they have not returned till today. Kingsley was advised to run away by his kinsmen and he ran to Dubai in February 2017 and his mother fell sick (stroke disease).

“In 2017 when IPOB was proscribed by Federal Government, Kingsley was not comfortable because of his mother’s health condition and missing elder brother and on 10 February 2018 he came back and was told that his mother had died.

He was advised to renounce membership for his dear life to avoid being killed as the IPOB proscription would be worse for him especially as most youths were declared wanted to be killed by military and other security operatives”.

“He then thought it wise by renouncing IPOB in April 28, 2018 having lost father, mother and brother in the name of IPOB struggle and started getting threats from ESN, the IPOB militia.

“He left for Ghana in June 2018 to save his life from IPOB, Federal Government security operatives and terrorists Fulani Jihadists that are allegedly looking for him to be killed. He however stayed between Ghana and Benin Republic for a month and again returned to Nigeria”.

“With the arrest of IPOB leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, by the Federal Government, in mid 2021, it showed the seriousness to kill proscribed IPOB members seen anywhere in Nigeria and as Igbo christian he couldn’t stay in Northern Nigeria or Southwest where innocent people are being massacred daily by terrorists Fulani Jihadists”

Consequently, in 2019 he fled Nigeria, masquerading as a dancer to Latvia that was holding International dance event then and has not been seen or heard of till date”, he revealed further.
