The lawyer for the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Ifeanyi Ejiofor has narrated how he was nearly killed during former President Muhammadu Buhari’s government.
 
Speaking on Monday, he said he escaped five assassination attempts under Buhari's government.
 
He made this known on Monday in a statement titled: “Crucial Clarifications Regarding The Case/trial Of Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.”
 
According to him, between 2015 and 2021, he “escaped five assassination attempts by those who were on a specific instruction to kill me at all cost”.
 
Ejiofor said it was not because he was a criminal but because he was defending Nnamdi Kanu and Ezigbo Umuchineke IPOB.
 
He said,
Quote
“During this operation, many civilians were murdered in their prime and over 30 houses were burnt, all in a bid to eliminate me at all costs and by any means for being Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi Kanu’s Attorney and IPOB lead counsel.

“Since their evil mission was not completely accomplished on the 2nd of December 2019, another bloody invasion of my ancestral home was carried out in June 2021, this time with specifics, confirming my availability at the time of invasion.

“Acting on this strong lead, my house was invaded at the wee hours of the morning of 6th of June 2021, and my personal assistant in the person of Mr. Samuel Okoro was gruesomely murdered, his dead body dumped in the boot of my car and subsequently set ablaze at Neni, in Anaocha Local Government Area of Anambra State.

“Three of my wards, to wit; Ugochukwu Lawrence, Felix Okafor and Ikenna Chibuike abducted during this bloody invasion are still in detention till date, even as I struggle day in and day out to secure their release. Between the year 2015 and 2021, I have escaped five consecutive brutal assassination attempts ostensibly carried out by those who were on specific instruction to kill me by any means and at all cost, and not because I am a criminal but because I was defending Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and Ezigbo Umuchineke.”

Continuing, Ejiofor maintained that those seeking to kill him had not relented.
 
He said their identities and strategies had been exposed and narrowed down to regular actors who had resorted to funding cults aiming to assassinate him.

A Lawyer should be aloud to do his job without interference from terrorist sponsors and all political criminals in power.
