*Says terrorists planning to attack security facilities
The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has cautioned the Federal Government and the security agencies not to allow anything untoward to happen to its detained leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu in the DSS facility in Abuja.
It raised concerns over the recent sudden closure of all the government public schools operating in Abuja because of threats by terrorists to take over Abuja.
Also, IPOB demands the immediate release of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu from the DSS detention camp in Abuja.
IPOB in a statement by its Director of Media and Publicity Secretary, Comrade Emma Powerful and made available to newsmen in Awka on Thursday warned of the consequences should anything happen to him in detention.
It reminded the Federal Government and the security agencies about the recent position of the UN rights group which last weekend called for an unconditional release Kanu and adequate compensation for him following his extradition to Nigeria from Kenya.
It said, “We are a reminding Nigeria and her Security Agencies that the world through UN Right group has called for the unconditional release of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and appropriate compensation paid to him without delay because he committed no crime against Nigeria and her sovereignty. The UN Group warned that if anything untoward happens to him it will be disastrous to Nigeria, and IPOB is ready to carry this order to the letter.
“We are advising the government of Nigeria to urgently release Mazi Nnamdi Kanu unconditionally before their planned jihad in Abuja.”
“We, therefore, demand that the Nigeria government must release the leader of IPOB now because he committed no crime as enunciated by the UN Right group.”
“As Nigeria is closing schools, businesses, and other activities because of terrorists threat to attack Abuja, it clearly shows that Abuja is no longer safe for people to live. Hence our unequivocal demand for the unconditional release of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu before anything happens to him. We demand prompt and complete implementation of the UN directives concerning Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.”
“We pity those Igbo leaders and politicians who commit crimes in Igboland and ran to Abuja thinking that nothing will happen. The narratives have changed and they will run to Lagos but Lagos will not be safe for them, then they will come back home soon and answer questions unless they run abroad.”
“One day all the evil and killer politicians from BIAFRA land will be held to account, and only the good ones will walk as free men and women.”
