Biafra: Ex-militants give FG 31-day ultimatum to
release Kanu:
Niger Delta ex-militant leaders in support of the
Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB-) struggle have
given Federal Government 31-day deadline to free the
leader of the group and Director of Radio Biafra,
Nnamdi Kanu, or face the consequences.
Also, the former warlords warned security agencies
against tampering with the life of the IPOB leader,
who is detained at Kuje Prison. Spokesperson of the
concerned ex-militants, simply identified as General
Ben, warned that at the expiration of the ultimatum,
they would resume massive abduction of expatriates
as a first step.
The spokesperson declared that Federal Government
should not underrate the activities of the militants in
the Niger Delta, no matter the number of soldiers
deployed against them.
He fumed: "The ex-militant leaders in Ebeocha IPOB
are warning the Federal Government and are giving
them 31 days to release Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of
IPOB and Director of Radio Biafra.
"We are giving Federal Government deadline; if they
fail to release him, the country would be vandalised.
He is fighting a just cause. Nothing should happen to
him and Federal Government should not forget what
we can do," he threatened.
They accused the Federal Government of
marginalising a section of the country, pointing out
that the approach of the Presidency on issues
bordering on the entire geo-political zones were
treated unjustly and with bias.
Speaking on the recent invasion of the homes of their
colleagues by security operatives, General Ben said
the action was meant to intimidate them. "Federal
Government wants to use that way to harm us. But
we are warning that they (FG) should not forget our
capabilities. They think we can be intimidated by that
approach. No way!
"Federal Government should know that the detention
of Nnamdi Kanu and raid of the residences of our
colleagues are enough reasons to collapse the
society."
