The leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) in Nigeria as well as the group’s coordinator in West Africa, Mazi JCI Onyeukwu has warned that Mazi Nnamdi Kanu must not be held in custody by the Bola Ahmed Tinubu led government until 2025.
In a statement released and signed by Mazi JCI Onyeukwu on the 13th of November, 2024, IPOB warned that should president Bola Ahmed Tinubu refuse to free Mazi Nnamdi Kanu unconditionally before the end of 2024, the group will therefore regard the Yoruba ethnicity as “enemies of Biafra”.
He added that despite proof of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu battling with life-threatening illnesses that the Nigeria’s government has defiled all court rulings to the effect of Kanu’s freedom and has kept him in secret facility for over three years.
He insinuated that there is an underground plot to ensure that Kanu eventually dies in the DSS facility where he has been held since his rendition in Kenya three years ago.
Mazi Onyeukwu however warned that should something sinister happen to Mazi Nnamdi Kanu while he remains in the DSS custody that such an event will trigger unexpected response from Biafrans.
In his words:”The leader of the indigenous people of Biafra #MaziNnamdiKanu has being kept in jail for over three years by British/Nigeria for asking for economic, socio-political and legal justice for his Biafran people in present day south east, south south, lower Kogi and lower Benue caged within the geographical expression tagged Nigger-area by the veracious imperialistic owners of the largest artificial man made stealing farm in the world. Haven been subjected to unspeakable inhuman torture and health abuses, he is currently battling with not less than three death threatening ailments diagnosised by DSS doctors yet those who are more interested in feasting on our mineral resources, islamalize our space and take over our land have turned their deaf ears to the obvious public fact that Mazi Nnamdi Kanu is dieing gradually in DSS gulag since three years ago. Forget about what he looks like when he comes to court, it is a costimastics cover up. Experts have been contracted to deal with his case. They will make it look like a coincidence or an accident. Which goes to show that they clandestinly want to eliminate, or reduce him to a vegetable before releasing him to go and die. They should be reminded that we are aware of all their shenanigans and are ready for any eventuality. If our leader is not released before this year 2024 runs out, we will put #YorubaPeople where we placed Fulani and their slave masters #Britain and the short and long run consequences of this perpetual affronts and provocations on the Igbo race and the entire Biafran nation at large can not be estimated and can trigger retributive retaliations from Biafran youths at the appropriate time. Mind you, we do not for give unrepentant sinners”
