The Indigenous People Of Biafra (IPOB) has vowed to resist any form of invasion by criminal herdsmen in any part of the southeast.
The Biafra agitators warned that Fulani herdsmen will not be allowed to take over any part of Igbo land as they have done in some other parts of the country.
IPOB in a statement by its publicity secretary, Emma Powerful said they are capable of handling any threat posed by the herdsmen and those bent on fomenting trouble would not be spared.
Tracknews understands the proscribed IPOB group was reacting to a statement credited to former Head of State, Yakubu Gowon on the spate of killings and violence in Benue State.
Powerful has however submitted that they won’t succumb to any threat from the criminal herdsmen and vowed to match them battle for battle in protecting their heritage.
He said, “We are waiting for them, let them come and invade and take over Igboland. We will not spare them, let them come again and invade any part of Igboland and let us see if they can succeed.
“They can only do what they are doing in the places they are doing it now, but not in Igboland. Everybody knows that these people are the problem of Nigeria and we can’t relent until their evil control is dissolved”.
