BENUE STATE IS NOT PART OF BIAFRA – GOVT REPLIES NNAMDI KANU, IPOB

Ado Local Government Executive Chairman, Comr. James Oche has blasted Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and supporters of his cause, the indigenous people of Biafra styled IPOB for threatening to send operatives of the Eastern Security Network to Benue State. He has also admonished the fugitive to desist forthwith in dragging the name of the Benue State Governor into his self seeking campaign.

Mr. Oche who made this position known yesterday while addressing journalists said the territorial integrity of Benue State was not and would never be subject of the Biafra campaign. He cautioned proponents of Nnamdi Kanu’s inordinate ideology resident within Benue to desist or face the wrath of the law.

The Chairman who has recently earned uncommon commendations for his security efforts described Nnamdi Kanu as a desperate drowning man, seeking to hold onto the name of Benue State and its hard working Governor to remain relevant, having suffered monumental oblivion.

Contrary to Kanu’s submission that 3 people were abducted, Oche clarified that, they were arrested in connection with the murder of an elderly Fulani Man, Mohammed Isa. An act that threatened the security of the area and made the Deputy Governor summon a meeting that was held yesterday in Makurdi with all concerned stakeholders.
