Rochas Okorocha, the former governor of Imo state and the presidential aspirant has revealed why he doesn’t see members of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB as a terrorist group.

Speaking to State House Correspondents after his meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari yesterday, the senator alleged that the group became a terrorist group because it was not properly handled by the government.

Okorocha went on to state that he sees IPOB members as poorly educated children and not terrorists.

He said;

“There was no need to have handled the IPOB matter the way it was handled. Today they have turned out to be terrorists.

But for me, I don’t see them as terrorists. I see them as children who have not been properly educated on the happenings.”
