The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) is set to stage protests at the Hague, Netherland, against the killing of their members and alleged human rights abuses by security authorities in the South East.
IPOB’s Media and Publicity Secretary, Emmanuel Powerful, on Monday, said the first demonstration will hold at Lange Poten 4, Postcode: 2511CL Den Haag, in Dutch Parliament building, on Tuesday, from 10:00a.m. to 3:00p.m., ahead of President Muhammadu Buhari’s visit to Netherlands.
He said Netherlands’ arm of IPOB as well as Igbo in the country have been mobilised to stage the protest aimed at drawing world’s attention to the plight of Southeastern Nigerians.
He also said there will be another protest on Thursday at “Oude Waalsdorperweg, 10 Postcode: 2597AK Den Haag,” at ICC, in the Hague.
President Muhammadu Buhari is expected, during the visit to Netherlands, to address the ICC, where more than 100 petitions have been written against the federal government, especially over killings by herdsmen.
