The leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB is currently being detained by the Department of State Security.

Bianca, wife of late Biafra leader, Dim Chukwuemeka Odumegwu-Ojukwu made the appeal in the United States during the annual convention of the American Veterans of Igbo Descent, AVID.

AVID is composed of American citizens of Igbo parentage who are currently serving or who served in various branches of the United States military.

She said: “The state of insecurity in Igboland is posing an existential threat to life as we know it in our communities.

“The incessant killings and kidnappings, the increasing rate of annexation and takeover of community farmlands by armed herdsmen and other dangerous invaders have taken their toll on Agro and economic prospects, as well as social activities in most Igbo communities.”

She lamented the fact that many people were leaving their villages out of fear and once thriving communities had become depleted, devitalized and in some cases assuming the status and appearance of ghost towns.

She called on the governors of the South East who are the chief security officers of their states to intensify their individual and collective efforts towards bringing the alarming situation under control.

Bianca, however, stressed that once Nnamdi Kanu is set free, the security situation in the South East would greatly improve.
