The Indigenous People of Biafra,
IPOB, apparently tired of calling on the Federal Government to release its
leader, Nnamdi Kanu, has begged Nigerians to lend their voices to the call for
his release.
Kanu had in September last gone
missing after soldiers stormed his home in Afara Ukwu, near Umuahia in Abia
State.
The military authorities had
severally denied taking Kanu, but IPOB insistently said that the soldiers
acting on orders from above had taken Kanu with them during their visit.
In a press release signed by its
Media and Publicity Secretary, Emma Powerful, IPOB wondered why Nigerians were
keeping quiet since Kanu’s disappearance last year.
The group said Kanu showed
courage and spoke against the injustice in the country, and remained the only
strong voice of the Igbo and Christians, the reason the federal government
planned his disappearance.
The group expressed unhappiness
that the same people Kanu fought for have failed to ask the federal government
to produce him.
Part of the release reads: “It is unfortunate that APC Government led by
Major General Muhammadu Buhari arrested and jailed him for two years without
trial and later kidnapped him and kept him without traces since 14th September
2017 because he saw ahead and spoke out without fear or favour.
“He was hunted like an antelope
for standing firm on the way to the truth that led and moved the Nigerian
Authority and her security operatives including those unscrupulous politicians
in Abuja to kidnapp him since last year without any well meaning Nigerian
asking questions for his whereabouts because he looked the cabals and jihadists
in the eyes and called them what they are.
“He was betrayed because he
looked at his brothers and sisters who have become slaves of the Hausa Fulani
Caliphate in the eyes and told them they were nothing but slaves.
“He was hated by a few who are
suffering from identity crisis because he tried to liberate them from mental
and physical slavery.
“Nigerians and Africa at large
need to celebrate the leader of IPOB, prophet Nnamdi Kanu. It is now
categorically clear to all that three years after the prophecies of our leader
is playing out like a movie and manifesting before our very eyes.
“All the prophecies and
declarations of IPOB leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu have come to pass, the recent
scenario and statement from Rtd General T.Y Danjuma has clearly shown that
Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB is the only good thing that happened to Christians in
Nigeria particularly Southern Nigeria and Middle Belt region,” the release
stated.
