It described the proscription as the greatest mistake the Ohaneze Ndigbo and the South -East governors had made in history .
IPOB alleged that the Igbo leaders by the act opened the area to constant attacks and humiliation by alleged terrorists , herdsmen , and bandits.
A statement by the group ’ s Media and Publicity Secretary , Emma Powerful , on Wednesday, said current attacks and killings of the people of the area were the beginning of the ugly lessons for what it termed “ the treacherous and ignoble role of the governors and other actors in the proscription of IPOB . ”
The statement read in part, “ Conniving with the enemies to get rid of IPOB , which is the only defence line of Biafra nation , is the greatest mistake made by the South – East governors , Ohaneze Ndigbo and some self -acclaimed Igbo political leaders
“ It is a constant reminder of the Igbo adage that says ‘ when you kill your hero in an internal squabble , during an external fight you must remember him ’ .
“ The reward of treachery is shame and eternal regret. By conniving with the enemies to get rid of IPOB that is the only defence line of Biafra nation , they have opened our land to constant attack and humiliation. ”
