Kwankwaso Behind Exit Notice, IPOB Alleges
By Victor Ernest
Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has accused former governor of Kano state Rabiu Kwankwaso of plotting violence against the Igbo in the North.
The group stated this in reaction to the governor’s advice to Igbo leaders to disown Biafra agitators to show sincerity to Nigeria’s unity.
In a statement issued by the group’s Publicity Secretary, Emma Powerful, it declared the former governor’s advice as irrelevant.
Biafra not for all
”IPOB and its leadership worldwide led by Mazi Nnamdi Kanu are not working with the so-called Igbo leaders.
”We believe that IPOB’s quest for restoration of Biafra is not for everyone who does not believe in freedom and we are ready to work with anybody who is sincere and not those who sabotage the struggle for selfish gain.
”We in IPOB do not care if anybody or hired group from anywhere in Nigeria disowns us. Our focus is on Biafra restoration.
”Even if Kwankwaso disowns IPOB and other Biafra agitating groups, it will not stop the activities and determination of IPOB to achieve Biafra restoration,” the group said.
The group stressed that the agitators of today are different from those of 1967 to 1970.
”Kwankwaso has just revealed to us by his statement that he is one of the numerous Northern elders sponsoring their youths against Biafrans residing in the North,” the group alleged.
