“Nobody Will Listen To Nnamdi Kanu If He Orders Us To Drop Our Weapons” – Simon Ekpa

The imprisoned leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, has been told that no one will listen to him if he orders his supporters to lay down their weapons, according to Simon Ekpa, the self-appointed Prime Minister of the Biafra Republic Government-in-Exile.

Ekpa also charged Aloy Ejimakor, Kanu’s attorney, with conspiring with the Nigerian government to undermine the Biafra liberation movement.

Kanu and the IPOB are battling for the independence of what they refer to as Biafra, a region in southern Nigeria.

Ekpa stated in a message on social media: “The criminal and treacherous Ejiofor may think that he has succeeded in using @AloyEjimakor and because they think they have succeeded in manipulating MNK to drop Biafra, and for that reason, it is time for them to kill @AloyEjimakor because he frustrated them until now. Please, them that their last battle is already lost. No Biafran will listen to MNK if he tells anyone or BLA, ESN BRF to drop their weapons. We’ve crossed the “Rubicon” Every attempt to sabotage the Biafra Liberation by compelling MNK to stay somewhere in Nigeria and direct the Biafra army to drop weapons will hit the bricks. Release him to us, and allow him to travel to Finland to have a table discussion with me, without this, before December, we will smoke everywhere.”

Despite the Court of Appeal clearing the IPOB leader of terrorism and treasonable felony charges last year, Kanu has been held captive in the DSS facility since his arrest in Kenya in June 2021 and extradition to Nigeria to stand trial for treasonable felony.
