Nnamdi Kanu issues fresh directive to IPOB from custody as Ohanaeze hints at December release
The leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu has directed his followers to stay on course.
Kanu issued the directive during his routine meeting with his legal team, led by his special counsel, Aloy Ejimakor.
This was disclosed by Ejimakor on X on Thursday, November 30, 2023.
The IPOB leader commended those who have impacted positively during his ongoing incarceration.
Ejimakor wrote: “Update: I’ve concluded today’s visitation with Onyendu #MNK. In my company were Barr Mandela and Prince Emmanuel.
“MNK greets the faithful and loyal and directs that all should stay put and stay the course. He’s proud of those that have impacted positively and brought sanity to bear.”
Meanwhile, the Ohanaeze Ndigbo socio-cultural organisation has said the release of Nnamdi Kanu will diminish the popularity of self-acclaimed Biafra agitator Simon Ekpa and the Labour Party’s presidential candidate Peter Obi.
Ohanaeze said Kanu’s release will consign Ekpa’s activities in the Southeast to the “annals of history.”
A statement by the factional Secretary-General of Ohanaeze, Isiguzoro Okechukwu, said the release of Kanu would have significant implications for the political landscape in the Southeast.
The statement reads: “It has come to our attention that certain mischievous Igbo political elites and deviant opportunists are attempting to take undue credit for Nnamdi Kanu’s potential release.
“Ohanaeze Ndigbo urges President Tinubu not to entertain any visits or demands from these individuals, as the credit for Kanu’s release should solely be attributed to him.
“We emphasise that the effects of Nnamdi Kanu’s release will gradually diminish the rising popularity of both Peter Obi and Simon Ekpa in the Southeast.
“Additionally, from a security perspective, Ekpa’s disruptive activities and terrorist tendencies in the Southeast will be consigned to the annals of history.”
Ohanaeze urges President Bola Tinubu to remain resolute in his decision-making process regarding Kanu’s release.
“We assure him that the Igbo nation stands behind him, and we trust that he will handle this matter with utmost care and consideration,” he added.
