Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) leader Nnamdi Kanu has turned down a meeting with Southeast governors in Enugu tomorrow, he said yesterday.
The IPOB leader alleged that he might be killed on his way to Enugu for the meeting.
In a statement, Kanu said:
“In view of the concerted effort by the oppressive Nigerian state to shatter the peace and tranquillity of the South-East and the rest of Biafraland through military intimidation, it has become necessary for me to clarify why, regrettably, I may not be able to attend Friday’s meeting with the South-East governors as earlier agreed, for three main reasons.
“We are currently busy attending to our dead and injured from this latest round of unprovoked military onslaught against innocent civilians in our own land. All the casualties so far were shot by men of the Nigerian Army deployed in my house and those stationed along motorways leading into Umuahia, my hometown.
“I have been reliably informed also that a detachment of this same soldiers, responsible for the murder of innocent unarmed IPOB family members, have now been stationed near Enugu to ambush and assassinate me on my way to the meeting with the governors on Friday.
“On that same Friday, the 15th of September, 2017, the leadership of IPOB, through the instrumentality of the Directorate of State, headquartered in Germany, will be meeting to vote on the viability or otherwise of continuing our struggle in this non-violent manner.
“There is urgent need to begin the process of defending ourselves in the face of relentless murderous attacks from the Nigerian state.”
Kanu explained that the prevailing situation in the South-East was not conducive to meaningful discussions with the governors.
“Accordingly, we will not engage in any meeting with anybody until the atmosphere is conducive and peaceful enough to allow for such,” he said.
They took away the slain policeman’s gun, injured two other policemen and burnt down their patrol vehicle, the police said.
Dude is sick, sick, sick! Silly ass
ReplyDeleteThis is a Conspiracy Theory! The Nigerian Army's Operation Python Dance II is scheduled to commence on September 15 and run until October 15. The soldiers along with other security agencies are to be deployed to the 5 South-Eastern states of Nigeria. The reasons advanced by the Nigerian Government is hilarious. The real reasons for this current deployment are (1) to checkmate Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB's call for true federalism or in the alternative, a separate Homeland because of the selective Injustice being done to the Igbo people, (2) to prepare to checkmate the Igbos ahead of he October 1st deadline issued to them by the irresponsible Arewa Youth Forum to vacate Northern Nigeria should the massacre of Igbos begin in the North and the Igbos wish to retaliate in the South-East. Within the period of this unnecessary deployment, the Judiciary, under the guidance of the Federal Government, shall revoke Nnamdi Kanu's bail. The Army, and not the Nigeria Police as required by Law, shall quickly move in to arrest Nnamdi Kanu. In the process, the Nigerian Army shall murder as many IPOB members as they can. The recent unprovoked invasion of Nnamdi Kanu's residence is a foregleam of the deadly master plan already in place. The Nigeria Army and affiliate security agencies shall attempt to cart away the many bodies of murdered Igbo men, women, and children to conceal the evidence. They shall be given strict instructions by the Federal Government to keep Nnamdi Kanu alive but would be equally instructed to assassinate him should IPOB members resist his arrest. The government's propaganda machine including paid Sahara TV, Sahara Reporters, paid social media spin doctors, the Nigerian Television Authority (NTA), The Sun Newspapers, Premium Times Newspapers, etc are already strategizing to unleash a barrage of lies, propaganda, misinformation, and disinformation to deflect the truth about the vicious atrocities that shall be committed. If hundreds of innocent lives can be heinously murdered by the Nigerian Air Force at the Borno IDP Camp and no one is being held accountable till today, the Nigerian Government feels that it can pull off a genocidal stunt on IPOB members and the Igbos. If hundreds of Sheik El Zak Zaky's followers, including harmless children, can be murdered in cold blood and given a mass burial, and nobody has been made to pay for this murderous crime till date, then the Federal Government has become emboldened to think that it can get away with the genocidal killing of peace-loving Igbos calling for equity, justice, and accountability. Please watch this space as this conspiracy theory unfolds before our eyes. If the Federal Government of Nigeria can condone the pogrom of Igbos and subsequently their genocide leading up to and during the Nigeria/Biafra Civil War of 1967-1970, they are very well prepared to repeat history in this era as no one has been held accountable for the previous crimes against humanity up till today. Let us hope this impending mayhem can be averted and lives of hundreds, if not thousands, of innocent Igbos can be saved.
