The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has alleged that over 300 members are languishing in jail and other detention facilities across Ebonyi State with death in prison.
It said three of its members died in prison two days ago following alleged torture from the security agents.
In a statement from its Media and Publicity Secretary, Emma Powerful, the group condemned incessant killings, unprovoked attacks and abduction of its members and security operatives, Eastern Security Network (ESN) in the State.
It regretted that its members were dying in security cells while terrorists were being set free.
The statement partly reads:
“The global family of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) under the command and leadership of our great leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu strongly condemns the incessant killings and unprovoked attacks and abduction of those suspected to be IPOB members and Eastern Security Network, ESN operatives in Ebonyi state by the wicked Nigeria security agents.
