Fellow Biafrans, Sons and Daughters of the Soil,
My dear family,
Today, I stand before you with a heavy heart but with an unbreakable resolve. I stand not merely as the Head of the Fourth Administration of the Directorate of State of the Indigenous People of Biafra, but as a son of Biafra who has watched with profound pain as our sacred movement endured years of internal division, confusion, and controversy.
By the grace of Chukwu Okike Abiama and under the authority vested in me by our Supreme Leader, Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, I make this solemn pledge before every Biafran across the world: the era of confusion, betrayal, abandonment, and internal sabotage is over. Our movement must return to the principles upon which it was foundedβtruth, loyalty, discipline, sacrifice, accountability, and absolute commitment to the restoration of Biafra.
A Moment of Constitutional Reaffirmation
Today, our Supreme Leader has exercised his constitutional authority from Sokoto Custodial Centre by reconstituting the Directorate of State. Predictably, some of those who have been removed are now challenging the very authority they previously relied upon. Their opposition demonstrates either a failure to study the IPOB Code of Conduct or a deliberate refusal to accept its clear provisions.
Let us remember an undeniable fact. The previous Directorate of State was appointed by Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi Kanu while he was detained in Kuje Prison. They accepted those appointments without hesitation. They exercised the authority delegated to them from Kuje Prison. At no point did they reject those appointments on the ground that the Supreme Leader was in detention or incapable of exercising his powers. Yet, when their actions were questioned and their ambitions exposed, they suddenly began advancing the argument that the same Leader who appointed them had somehow become "incapacitated" and could no longer exercise his authority. This contradiction speaks for itself. Authority cannot be valid when it benefits you and become invalid the moment you are held accountable.
Our Code of Conduct is unequivocal. The absolute authority to appoint, suspend, dissolve, and dismiss principal officers of IPOB rests exclusively with our Supreme Leader, Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi Kanu. That authority cannot be delegated away, usurped, or vetoed by any committee, individual, or group. The command and control structure remains exactly as established: authority flows from Onyendu through the Directorate of State and down every recognised structure of our movement. That principle shall never again be compromised.
Formal Notice and Legal Standing
Accordingly, let this serve as formal notice to all concerned. Any individual or group that falsely presents itself as the leadership of IPOB, purports to exercise powers it does not possess, or uses the name, identity, insignia, or structures of IPOB for fraudulent or unauthorised purposes does so entirely at its own risk. Such conduct may expose those responsible to legal consequences under the laws of the jurisdictions in which they reside.
Our governing document, the IPOB Code of Conduct, has been formally communicated to governments and relevant authorities in countries where IPOB maintains recognised structures. Should disputes requiring judicial determination arise, we are confident that the relevant courts will examine our governing framework and determine the rights, responsibilities, and legal consequences in accordance with the applicable law and the evidence placed before them. Our movement is governed by law, not by personalities; by constitutional order, not by disorder; and by discipline, not by opportunism.
Immediate Priorities of the Fourth Administration
My fellow Biafrans, we must move forward with purpose. One of the first priorities of my administration is the restoration of Radio Biafra. That powerful voice, which educated, inspired, and mobilized millions, has remained silent for far too long. We are determined to restore it so that the authentic voice of our struggle will once again be heard throughout the world without distortion or manipulation.
We must also never forget our brothers and sisters who remain in various detention centres and prisons across Nigeria because of this struggle. Our legal team has commenced identifying individuals who have remained in the custody of the Department of State Services (DSS) for extended periods, as well as those held in various correctional facilities. Efforts are ongoing to facilitate appropriate legal representation and to pursue all lawful avenues available for their cases. A movement that cannot care for those who sacrificed their freedom for its cause has abandoned its own conscience. My administration is committed to ensuring that every genuine Biafran prisoner and their families receive the attention, welfare, and support they deserve.
Furthermore, the administration recognizes the importance of ensuring that the welfare arrangements for members of the Eastern Security Network (ESN) are administered in accordance with the movement's established policies. Measures are being reviewed to improve the management of welfare support and to strengthen oversight and accountability for resources allocated for that purpose.
Equally important is financial accountability. Every contribution made by Biafrans across the world represents sacrifice. Those resources belong to the movement, not to individuals. Our administration will restore financial discipline, transparency, and confidence throughout every structure of IPOB.
Transparency and the Path Forward
My administration will provide weekly updates regarding the legal proceedings involving our Supreme Leader, Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi Kanu. Our people deserve accurate informationβnot rumours, propaganda, or confusion. Despite the challenges of recent years, I stand before you filled with hope. Our diplomatic representatives continue to engage constructively with friends of justice across the international community, and we remain optimistic that significant progress will emerge.
My dear brothers and sisters, this is our moment of renewal. Let us put bitterness behind us. Let us rebuild trust, restore discipline, and strengthen our unity. Our strength has never rested in personalities but in our collective conviction that our people deserve justice, dignity, security, freedom, and the right to determine their own future.
The ship of Biafra is back on course. To every genuine Biafran at home and throughout the Diaspora, I say: Stand firm. Remain peaceful, disciplined, and united. Protect the integrity of our movement. Together, under the leadership of Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, we shall continue this historic journey until our objective is achieved.
May Chukwu Okike Abiama continue to bless, strengthen, and protect every genuine Biafran wherever they may be.
