Biafra: Kanu Vows to Die in Prison if....
Detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Mr. Nnamdi Kanu has vowed to die in prison than for Ohanaeze Ndigbo to claim responsibility of his release.
This was contained in a press statement by IPOB signed by its United Kingdom spokesmen, Dr Clifford Iroanya and Emma
Mmezu, adding “We are in court and our wish is to expose the fraudulent charge of treasonable felony before the whole world. At the end of this case, the corrupt and compromised segment of the Nigerian judiciary will be publicly disgraced.
According to the statement, Mr. Kanu would rather die in jail than for the Ohanaeze Ndigbo to claim the glory of his release as he has no business with the Igbo Socio cultural
organization.
“Our march to freedom is unstoppable; this is something Buhari ought to know. We have
come to die for Biafra if that is what it will take to be free. Our resolve should not be underestimated. As our leader will always say, “Nigeria will kill us, we will kill them but in the end, we will win,” it said.
It warned those who were claiming to be representing the group, including the members of Ohanaeze Ndigbo and its youth wing to stop such move, that nobody speaks or represents them, unless such a person or persons are designated officers of IPOB worldwide.
Some people alleged to be members of Ohanaeze Ndigbo and Ohanaeze Youth wing were said to have met with some Americans at Nike Lake Resort Hotel between 6pm and
7pm Saturday evening to negotiate with the Federal Government about the release of Kanu.
Reacting, the IPOB members said that the Ohanaeze was not representing them and any
discussion they might have had over Kanu’s release was in futility.
