If You Attack IPOB, Igbos, There Will Be Consequences – Sunday Igboho

Self-styled Yoruba activist Sunday Adeyemo, popularly called Chief Sunday Igboho, has expressed worries for lack of investigations by the relevant agencies into the alleged attack on the Anambra country home of Barr Ifeanyi Ejiofor, lawyer to Nnamdi Kanu.

He also warned against attacks on the Indigenous People of Biafra or the East, asserting that, “We have said it before and we say it again that any attack on IPOB or the people of the East is an attack on us. We stand shoulder to shoulder with them in this battle.”

THE WHISTLER reported that Barr Ejiofor, in a release on June 6, 2021, claimed that a joint team of the police and army invaded his house shooting sporadically. The aftermath of the attack, he stated later, led to the killing of his personal assistant and destruction of his property.

Mr Igboho, in a statement he issued, which was delivered by his spokesman, Olayomi Koiki, said he was amazed that there had not been any reactions by the relevant agencies on the matter.

The statement read, “Chief Sunday Igboho has waited for days for a possible reaction from the relevant security agencies on the reason for the bloody and violent invasion on the Anambra State country home of Barrister Ifeanyi Ejiofor, but all to no avail.

“Those that attacked his home tried to assassinate him and in the process they killed his personal assistant and several other people in his home and burnt their bodies to ashes. They did this as Barrister watched the whole episode helplessly from where he hid in his home. 

“For the records, Barrister Ifeanyi Ejiofor is not only the lawyer to IPOB and Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, but also lawyer to our leader Chief Sunday Adeyemo and our group. He is also a personal lawyer to our dear brother and highly respected uncle, Chief Femi Fani Kayode, former minister of aviation and he is a friend and supporter of the sons and daughters of Oduduwa.

Igboho therefore warned relevant security agencies ‘that if anything happens to Barrister Ejiofor that the consequences will be serious, and no one directly or indirectly connected with this desperate hunt for an innocent life will go scot-free.

“We know the individuals who are funding this whole thing and we wish to put it on record that this is the second time they tried to take our lawyers life. It must be the last. Such an attempt must never happen to him again. 

“We demand that all Bar Ejiofor’s domestic staff that were abducted during this bloody attack on his peaceful home be released by the security agencies without further ado. We counsel for peaceful co-existence. Let wise counsel prevail.”
