The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has informed its members that the organization is currently engaged in a final, decisive internal struggle preceding the establishment of a Biafra state. This message was conveyed in a leaked memo titled, “This Is the Final Decisive Battle for the Heart and Soul of IPOB – Biafra Emerges Victorious,” issued by the group’s spokesperson, Emma Powerful.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

• Expelled Leadership: It accuses the former Directorate of State (DOS), led by Chika Edoziem, of attempting to hijack IPOB on behalf of the Nigerian government.

• PENETRATION BY STATE AGENTS: The memo alleges that the Nigerian government infiltrated the DOS through a lawyer, Ifeanyi Ejiofor, and Chinasa Nworu.

• GOVERNOR’S CONSPIRACY: It claims Anambra State governor Chukwuma Soludo, alongside South-East governors and Ifeanyi Ejiofor, is plotting against IPOB leader Nnamdi Kanu to prevent his release.

• SUPPRESSION EFFORTS: The memo asserts that Soludo initiated “Operation Demystify Nnamdi Kanu” to counter Kanu’s rising global recognition, allegedly using bribes and activated compromised elements within IPOB to launch attacks and create distractions.

The document argues that despite Kanu establishing the Eastern Security Network (ESN) to protect Igboland from bandits, he faces malicious opposition from Igbo governors collaborating with the dismissed DOS. It alleges that insecurity narratives are manufactured by politicians to justify Kanu’s incarceration and the ESN’s destruction.

Furthermore, the memo claims that the Nigerian Army uses misinformation to undermine IPOB’s successes and manipulate Igbos against their own interests.

Emma Powerful urged IPOB members to reject the exposed traitors and moles, framing this as a final internal cleansing. He declared that these efforts to prevent Biafra’s birth have failed and that Nnamdi Kanu remains the sole leader with firm support from Alaigbo. The memo concludes with a confident assertion of inevitable victory.

Governor Dapo Abiodun has announced that the 28-kilometre portion of the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway passing through Ogun State is scheduled for completion by the end of 2026.

• Economic Transformation: Governor Abiodun stated that the coastal highway is a visionary project by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu that will drive industrialization, tourism, trade, and regional connectivity.

• Deep Sea Port Development: By ensuring the highway alignment sits just three to five kilometres from the coast, the state has removed a significant barrier to the Deep Sea Port’s development, which the governor claims will become the best in Sub-Saharan Africa.

• New Industrial Corridor: The combination of the coastal road, the planned Deep Sea Port, renewed oil exploration, and efforts to revive the Olokola Liquefied Natural Gas (OKLNG) project is set to turn Ogun Waterside into a rapidly growing economic hub.

• Enhanced Security and Connectivity: The state is planning to establish a naval base and dockyard at the port to improve maritime security. Furthermore, the government is prioritizing road infrastructure, such as the recently commissioned Gao-Ibiade Road and upcoming work on the J4-Gao route, to support this anticipated economic surge.

• Commitment to Equitable Growth: Governor Abiodun emphasized that these investments in Ogun Waterside are part of his administration’s broader mission to deliver balanced and sustained development across all 20 local government areas in Ogun State.
