In a statement issued late on Saturday,
the spokesman for the American Embassy in Nigeria, Russell Brooks, the
U.S government stated the FG should have taken a careful analysis of the
activities of IPOB before arriving at a conclusion because maintaining
peace and unity remains their ideology.
“The United States Government is strongly committed to
Nigeria’s unity. Important political and economic issues affecting the
Nigerian people, such as the allocation of resources, are worthwhile
topics for respectful debate in a democracy.
Within the context of unity, we encourage all Nigerians
to support a de-escalation of tensions and peaceful resolution of
grievances.The Indigenous People of Biafra is not a terrorist
organisation under US law,” he said.
