IPOB said that Mrs Kalu’s only crime was being an Igbo woman in Nigeria “where ethnic hatred against Igbos is championed by the Fulani Federal Government of Nigeria.”

The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has demanded an immediate and unconditional release of one Mrs Onyedikachi Kalu reportedly arrested and detained by the operatives of Nigerian secret police, the Department of State Services (DSS).

IPOB noted that in September 2022, Mrs Kalu was trailed by the DSS operatives to her home town in Ohafia Local Government Area of Abia State in the South East region of the country, where she was “abducted” and taken to the DSS headquarters in Abuja.

Condemning what it described as “illegal abduction and continued detention of an innocent woman”, IPOB in a statement by its Media and Publicity Secretary, Emma Powerful, said that “The abduction of this innocent woman and others is an indication that Biafra women like the men are not safe in this Nigeria that they are forced to remain in as one country.”

IPOB said that Mrs Kalu’s only crime was being an Igbo woman in Nigeria “where ethnic hatred against Igbos is championed by the Fulani Federal Government of Nigeria.”

According to the Biafran group, “This woman has been bleeding profusely from the torture she received from DSS officers during her abduction and transfer to DSS dungeon in Abuja.

“We want the Nigerian Army and the DSS agents that are in the habit of abducting Biafrans and sending them to Abuja and other northern detention dungeons meant for terrorists that they should release this Biafra woman because their days in our land are numbered. No matter how many people they abduct and forcefully detain, they cannot abduct all Ndigbo no matter what they do.

“Again, the Nigeria Army, the Police and the DSS agents operating in Ohafia LGA, Abia State and the entire Biafraland doing this dirty job of illegally abducting and detaining will soon meet their waterloo because our ancestors will always fight against our enemies.

“We are calling on the American Embassy in Abuja, Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, British High Commissioner in Abuja, Women's Right Groups, foreign missions, and other reputable human rights organisations to prevail upon the Nigerian government and her DSS agency to release the innocent woman and others illegally detained because she committed no crime that warrant her torture and detention in DSS facility in Abuja.”
