Nnamdi Kanu fires back at Northern Senator over “war threat”

 

Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has dismissed the war threat issued against the Southeast by Senator Adamu Bulkachuwa.

 

Bulkachuwa, who is the Chairman of, Senate Committee on Foreign Relations had said the Nigerian government should declare war on the Southeast if situation calls for it.

 

The lawmaker had said the Nigerian Government will not bow to the demands of ‘insurgents’ in the Southeast.

He said the Southeast had tried separating from Nigeria before which resulted in a civil war, hence should the region decide to take the same route, the Nigerian government will have no choice but to respond.

 

According to him, the government will fight them and give them what they want.

 

Reacting, Kanu in a tweet wrote: “Whenever Fulani Janjaweed threaten us with war, I laugh because Fulani never fought any war with us.

“The only tribe Fulani can threaten in Nigeria is the Hausa because they conquered them through Jihad.

 

“The Biafran War was between Biafra and Britain(USSR, Egypt, etc) not Fulani.”
