The Global Terrorism Index has retracted its earlier announcement ranking the Indigenous People of Biafra as the 10th deadliest terror group in the world.

It said, “The Indigenous People of Biafra is a pro-Biafra secessionist movement based in Southeast Nigeria that aims to establish an independent state of Biafra.

“IPOB was proscribed as a terrorist group by the Nigerian government in 2017. In recent years, IPOB has been linked to several attacks, which have been attributed to its paramilitary wing, the Eastern Security Network. The group has not claimed responsibility for any of these attacks. “It is important therefore to differentiate between the peaceful activities of the group and its alleged involvement in violent activity.Kindly share this story:
