The Indigenous People of Biafra (POB) on Wednesday gave the federal
government and South East governors 7 days to produce its leader, Mazi
Nnamdi Kanu, or be prepared to face consequences that would will follow
it.
IPOB media and publicity secretary, Comrade Emma Powerful said in a
statement yesterday that the whereabouts of Mazi Kanu has remained
unknown several days after the attack on his house in Umuahia by the
military.
Powerful said, IPOB members had gone deep in search to locate Kanu and his parents to no avail.
He said, “We are giving the federal government and South East
governors seven days to produce or tell us the condition of our leader,
Mazi Nnamdi Kanu. If he still alive, they should charge him to court
because if anything happens to him, the South East governors should bear
the consequences after the expiration of this notice, or they should
hasten to build more prisons and acquire more weapons which they will
use to kill more Biafrans,”
He added, “that after going through the record of IPOB members in
Kanu’s compound on the day of the attack, it was discovered that about
38 members were arrested, adding that they had also not been seen to
date.
The statement reads further, “We are once again raising alarm for the
United Nation and the relevant bodies across the globe to ask Nigerian
government and her security operatives to give details of IPOB leader
Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and his parents, including those dead bodies and those
picked up alive during the attack and invasion of our leader’s compound
in Isiama Afaraukwu Ibeku Umuahia.
According to him, “We wonder why the South Eastern governors would
decide to collaborate with Hausa Fulani oligarchy to kill our leader
Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and parents. Nnamdi Kanu has been using nonviolence
approach for the actualization of Biafra since 2012 when the struggle
for Biafra independence started.
“It is important for the Nigerian government and South East governors
to produce our leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu before the situation gets out of
hand.
“Let the world also ask the Nigerian government and South East
governors why and how they sent military to invade Nnamdi Kanu’s
compound, which led to the loss of many innocent lives within five days
of the operation in his compound,” Powerful said.
