According to the GTI report, IPOB is the second most lethal terrorist organisation in Nigeria, behind only Boko Haram.

 

Although IPOB, a group founded by the currently detained Nnamdi Kanu, frequently contests its ban by the Nigerian government and maintains that it is nonviolent, multiple reports indicate that it has armed affiliates.
