The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Wednesday, accused some Igbo politicians of frustrating moves to release Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.
Kanu is the IPOB leader, and has been in detention since 2021 after being renditioned from Kenya to Nigeria by Nigeria’s secret police. Legal moves to free him are yet to yield desired results.
As a result, IPOB warned politicians trying to sabotage Kanu’s release to quickly retrace their steps. This was disclosed by IPOB spokesman, Emma Powerful in a statement.
According to him, “The attention of the global family and movement of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) ably led by the great prophet and resolute leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, has been drawn to the efforts by some unscrupulous politicians to frustrate the effort to release of Mazi Nnamdi KANU whom Appeal Court has discharged and acquitted on 13th October 2022.
“We wish to inform those criminal elements working against the release of Nnamdi Kanu to beware because we know of their secret meetings and discussions against MNK.
“If they continue with their sabotage, their names will be made public soon. Also, some of the political jobbers in the South-East Region working against the unconditional release of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu should know that we are following the activities closely.
“The unscrupulous individuals hold secret meetings with South-East governors to frustrate the clarion call of the release of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, who incidentally is the only political prisoner in Nigeria currently. We warn those sabotaging the unconditional release of our leader to stop provoking IPOB.
“The saboteurs should know that nothing happens in the South East Region without IPOB getting the intel ahead of time. Those Igbos involved in this dastardly act to frustrate the release of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu should retrace their steps quickly.
“IPOB-ESN is not begging them to stop, but they should be ready for the consequences of their oppositional actions.
“The unscrupulous Igbo persons working against the unconditional release of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu are not only working against Nnamdi Kanu but also sabotaging Ndigbo as a whole.”
