The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, have issued a warning regarding the alleged plan to convert Nigeria to Islam.
IPOB issued a warning that it won’t permit any person, group, or nation to Islamize Nigeria or transform it into a Fulani colony.
The spokesperson for the separatist movement, Emma Powerful, claimed that some individuals, the government, and ethnic groups are attempting to use deception to Islamize Nigeria.
He did, however, predict that plots to Islamize the country would fail.
According to Powerful, attacks on Christians by bandits, herders, and terrorists are part of a strategy to Islamize Nigeria.
A statement by Powerful reads partly: “That the attack of Christians in Church across Nigeria, using Fulani herdsmen, bandits and terrorists to attack communities in the country and sacking them from their ancestral homes, killing of their men, women, youths and raping their young ladies, are all plans aimed at taking over the communities and foisting strange religions on them, are all pointer to the dubious islamization and fulanization agenda.”
The group lamented that those close to President Muhammadu Buhari are Islamic fanatics.
He accused members of the All Progressives Congress, APC, around Buhari of being Jihadist foot soldiers waiting to implement the plot of Islamizing Nigeria.
