Biafra: Nnamdi Kanu’s activities could lead to war – Uwazurike

Ralph Uwazurike, founder of the Movement for the Actualisation of the Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB), has stated that activities of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) do not tally with the rule of engagement of the Biafra struggle.

Speaking in Owerri on Thursday, Uwazurike added that the activities of the IPOB leader, Mr Nnamdi Kanu, “could only lead to an unplanned war which is against the Biafra struggle.”

Uwazurike said Kanu’s major interest was to destroy the agenda of MASSOB.

He said that the hallmark of any freedom fighter was to submit to arrest.

“A real freedom fighter submits to arrest but Kanu has told his members to burn down the country if he is re-arrested, a true indication that he was paid to destabilise MASSOB,” he said.

He also accused the Federal Government of popularising Kanu, adding that “if the government had ignored Kanu, the situation would not have escalated.’’

“The IPOB has no agenda and I advise Igbo leaders to condemn its activities.

“Nnamdi Kanu has no agenda and he is only thriving on the relevance given to him by the government.

“I recruited him and I know his capacities and he is not a leader. I have 25 steps towards actualising Biafra and Kanu does not have even one agenda,” he said.
