Lawyer to IPOB leader, Nnamdi Kanu, and general counsel to IPOB, Barrister Ifeanyi Ejiofor, has returned to his compound after it was invaded and burnt. Taking journalists around, Ejiofor stated that the security forces invaded his house to kill him, in connivance with businessman, Emeka Offor, just because he is IPOB's Lawyer
The Nigerian Police had declared Ejiofor wanted over the deaths of two Police Officers last month by suspected IPOB members in Ejiofors residence
However, Ejiofor stated that the situation had nothing to do with IPOB but more to do with the fact that he was Lawyer to IPOB.
He stated that Emeka Offor, in service to his Fulani paymasters, was after his life for defending IPOB in court. He said that a local altercation between two Masquerade groups was used to rope in Ejiofor which led to the invasion of Ejiofors country home in Oraifite by the police. When the police got his house, and discovered he was not around, they opened fire on the residents and killed 4 people, carting away two of the bodies.
Ejiofor said that it was the bodies of the two innocent people killed in his residence that was paraded as two police men killed by suspected IPOB members
He said that the Police and the Army now mobilised, returned to his neighbourhood and burnt over 40 houses in the area including his own, and raped many women.
He called on the authorities to give him justice by conducting a thorough investigation in what happend in his residence on December 4th

I want to use this opportunity to thank my fans, friends, proffessional colleagues and undaunted members of the Indigenous People of Biafra for standing with me in this moment of grief/trial.
My special thanks goes to my Client, my Senior brother and indefatigable leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, (Mazi Proffessor, Dr. NNAMDI KANU) for reawakening the international community to their solemn duty to act swiftly on the crime against humanity committed in my house., I can't appreciate him enough and he retains my everlasting loyalty . Also to be thanked is the prompt condemnation of the Carnage , bloodletting and killings in my house by Ohaneze Ndi Igbo.
NBA Abuja can not be thanked enough for their vociferous condemnation of the muderous activities of the combined team of the Nigerian Police and military in my home. They are all outstanding . My fans accross the globe can't be thanked enough for standing tall even on the face of this adversity. You all are appreciated. What happened in my house is a clear demonstration of crime against humanity.
My only saving grace in this conspiratorial move to assasinate me ostensibly executed by agents of the state, and masterminded by Emeka Orakwue Offor is my respect for constituted authority. If I didn't insist on honouring my word with the ACP on their mission to my house, I would have been a dead person by now, because the mission of the police and military in my house wasn't to investigate the commission of any crime but to assasinate me, having been heavily paid by Emeka Orakwue Offor and Government he represents in the crime. Kindly note that I can never relent in my desire to ensure that Justice is done no matter the high powered manipulation being undertaken by Emeka Orakwue Offor at present, to ensure that the case is swept under the carpet.
Emeka Orakwue Offor, Sunday Ignoanuzue, Cascer Ufondu and cohorts cannot escape the wrath of the most High God. What happened in my house will be a child's play to God's vengeance that will be visited upon them. Note further that Emeka Offor cannot finish this fight as the Almighty God will finish the fight for me. I never offended anybody in any way, my only offence was defending IPOB within the best of my proffessional ability, which duty I can't renege on even against all intimidating odds. I thank you once more for being with me and standing by me. I am indeed overwhelmed. May the good Lord bless all people of goodwill that have stood with me in this trying period.
