ESN’ll protect you, engage in farming – IPOB tells South-East residents

Published on April 03, 2025 at 05:21 PM

The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has assured farmers of adequate security ahead of the farming season.

IPOB in a statement by its spokesman, Emma Powerful, urged farmers to engage in intensive farming, nothing that they would be adequately protected by the Eastern Security Network, ESN.

Parts of the statement reads: “The global family and movement of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) want to remind Biafrans, supporters of Biafra, and admirers of Biafra's freedom that a new farming season has arrived.

“Biafrans should engage in intensive agriculture to reduce hunger and guarantee food security this year and in the future.

“Last year, the global IPOB family under Mazi Nnamdi Kanu initiated the Agricultural Revolution Project in Biafra Land. We assisted various Biafra farmers from different regions with agricultural seedlings.

“The outcomes were observed during the previous year's harvest throughout Biafra land. For the first time, prices of certain food items in the Eastern region were lower than those in other zoo regions.

“Additionally, last year saw a plentiful yield of several crops that were previously regarded as Northern crops. Crops such as tomatoes, cabbage, carrots, millet, beans, and others were sown and gathered in Biafra Land. This year, we will again offer assistance to certain farmers to enhance their production beyond last year's levels.

“The Agric Revolution initiative is one of IPOB's favored projects aimed at guaranteeing food security in Igbo Land. We recognize that the Nigerian government does not back Biafra farmers. They would prefer to back Northern farmers or even overseas producers.

“Rather than backing Igbo farmers, the Nigerian government favors Fulani terrorists known as herdsmen to ruin our agriculture and to kill our farmers, aiming to keep Biafrans reliant on the North for food. Biafra Land is capable of producing any crop if properly cared for.

“We urge Igbo Governors, Igbo philanthropists, PGs, and traditional as well as religious leaders to assist farmers with agricultural supplies to guarantee food sustainability in the area. Rather than bringing in rice and other food products to distribute, it is essential to assist individual farmers by providing them with farming tools and fertilizers.

“IPOB will recognize and praise those who respond to this urgent appeal to return to farming. We, in addition to supplying seedlings and financial assistance to chosen farmers throughout Biafra Land, will be present in both rain and sunshine to prevent Fulani terrorists from ruining our farms or harming our farmers. Every farmer should be aware that IPOB and ESN will consistently support them.”
