The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) claims to have found covert prison facilities where certain Biafra activists are purportedly being held by Nigerian security personnel.

The group said in a statement sent by spokesman Emma Powerful that it wants to raise awareness of the heinous violations of human rights, mistreatment of defenseless individuals, torture, organ trafficking, and enforced disappearances occurring in these detention facilities.

Wawa Military Base, Kanji Dam Detention Center, Niger State Barracks and Prison, DSS Headquarters, Abuja, Intelligence Response Team (IRT) Abattoir, Abuja, Tiger Base Police Detention, Owerri, Imo State, Goodluck Jonathan’s Army Barracks, Ohafia, Abia State, Zone 9, Umuahia, Abia State, Zone 13, Ukpo, Anambra State, and Onitsha Army Barracks, Anambra State are a few of the alleged secret detention facilities, according to IPOB.

Additional locations include: Navy Base, Ogbaru, Anambra State; SARS Awkuzu, Ukpo, Anambra State; 82 Division, Enugu; Military Barracks, Enugu State; Obinze Army Barracks, Owerri, Imo State; Central Police Station Headquarters, Umuahia, Abia State; State CID Headquarters, Awka, Anambra State; Naval Base Asaba, Delta State; Aba Maximum Prison, Abia State; Abakaliki Prisons, Ebonyi State; Uyo Prisons, Akwa Ibom; Owerri Prisons, Imo State; Kuje Prisons, Abuja; Keffi Prison; Suleja Prison, Niger State; and Nigerian Military Intelligence Detention Facility, Abuja.

It advised those whose loved ones had vanished to search these covert prison facilities for them.

IPOB said: “Ndigbo are the highest ethnic group that are being detained with accusations of being either members of IPOB or ESN or framed as kidnappers by the notorious Nigerian Police, DSS, and Army.

“Ndigbo have been profiled because of their ethnicity by the Nigerian government and hunted and detained across all the illegal detention centers in Nigeria.

“Not only are innocent Igbo detained in these illegal detention facilities, but also innocent people from other ethnic groups are locked up in these gulags.

“The detention facilities in Nigeria are places to search for your missing relative if he or she hasn’t been tortured to death or butchered for the organ black market by the notorious Nigerian security agencies.

“Until today, some of the IPOB members that the Nigerian Army and Police abducted during President Donald Trump’s inauguration rally in 2016 at Port Harcourt (Igweocha), Rivers State, are still missing. IPOB is still searching for those men and women who were abducted during the peaceful rally, more than 8 years on.”
