The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has given orders to parents and guardians in the affected South-East to send their children and wards back to class.
Some parents and guardians as at Wednesday had withdrawn their wards from schools following a rumour that a military medical outreach had been introduced on to the pupils in the area.
The wide spread rumour made some schools to close down, while others recorded a low turnout.
It was revealed that IPOB had put high security measures in place for the safety of the children.
It is stated that IPOB would continue to monitor the situation in the affected area especially Anambra State, to ensure that nothing would come up to the school children.
“We, the Indigenous People of Biafra and its leadership worldwide under the command of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, wish to inform Biafrans across the length and breadth of Biafra land to return our children back to school from Monday, October 16, 2017.
“This directive is important because we have determined that for the time being, men of the Nigerian Army responsible for the murderous outrage of forcible vaccinations of our children have been withdrawn from our schools and banned from continuing with this criminal act.
“Right now, IPOB has ascertained that Nigerian soldiers have withdrawn the vaccination programme.
“Our early warning team is in place all over Anambra State and should anything untoward be spotted on Monday or Nigerian Army vehicles found anywhere near any school, IPOB would raise the alarm immediately to recall our children as was the case last week.
The group maintained that it was determined to ensure the safety and well-being of children in the area, adding that under no circumstance would IPOB allow them “to be poisoned with killer virus administered by those that want all Biafrans dead.”
“At IPOB, our children are important to us; after all, we are sacrificing our lives on a daily basis in pursuit of Biafra that we may give them a future to be proud of.”
