Ipob senate president says governors military statement illegal

It appears that the Senate President of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Mazi Obi Ezeude, has made a statement regarding the recent declaration of the governors of the South-East states as "military commanders" by the Nigerian government.

According to reports, Mazi Obi Ezeude has described the statement as "illegal" and "unconstitutional". He argued that the governors are elected officials and not military personnel, and therefore, they do not have the authority to issue military orders.

It's worth noting that the Nigerian government has been accused of using the military to suppress the IPOB and other separatist groups in the region, leading to widespread human rights abuses and violence.

The situation remains tense, and it's unclear what the implications of the governors' declaration will be. However, it's clear that the IPOB is opposed to the move and will continue to advocate for the rights and freedoms of the people of Biafra.
