Nnamdi Kanu Speaks on Sit-At-Home in South East

The leader of the outlawed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, has expressed his displeasure over the criminal activities being perpetrated in the South East by some members of his group.

Newsflash Nigeria had earlier reported that a self-proclaimed disciple of the IPOB leader, Simon Ekpa, had declared a total lockdown in the South East from July 3 to 10, in protest of Kanu’s arrest and detention by the Nigerian government.

Ekpa also instructed members of the banned group to disrupt business activities and prevent people from carrying out their daily work in the region.

However, in a statement issued on Monday, the lead counsel to the IPOB leader, Ifeanyi Ejiofor, said Kanu is not in agreement with the “charlatans” causing havoc in the South East.

Ejiofor quoted Kanu as saying during a visit to him at the detention facility, that those orchestrating the constant attacks on the region are enemies of the people and are playing into the hands of the federal government.

He said: “Onyendu was deeply worried about the heinous activities of charlatans who are unleashing havoc/mayhem on our peaceful people in the South-East under the guise of unauthorized sit-at-home orders, for which Onyendu, for the umpteenth time reiterated his strong rejection, disapproval, and condemnation of the activities of these obvious enemies of our people.

“Onyendu reminded those behind these criminal activities that by their ill-conceived actions, they are speedily destroying the economy of the south-east, for which the federal government of Nigeria will be celebrating and applauding them.”
