I never ordered attack on Yoruba assets -IPOB leader
… Says enemies of Igbo, Yoruba unity spreading falsehood
I never ordered attack on Yoruba assets -IPOB leader
Magnus Eze, Enugu
Leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu has denied that he ordered the destruction of economic assets of Yoruba people in Lagos State.
He said that agents of the Federal Government carefully twisted parts of his recent broadcast to create impression that he had turned the EndSARS protests against Yoruba.
He spoke Thursday afternoon, in an emergency Zoom meeting on the topic: “#EndSARS is not an ethnic protest, stop the propaganda to make it one”, organised by Njenje Media TV on the ethnicization of the #ENDSARS movement.
The event, moderated by Maazi Ezeoke also featured former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode.
Kanu stated that those who caused division between Chief Obafemi Awolowo and Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe during their time were bent on pitching Ndigbo and Yoruba against themselves.
Exposed!! Popular Abuja doctor revealed how men can naturally and permanently cure poor erection, quick ejaculation, small and shameful manhood without side effects. Even if you are hypertensive or diabetic . Stop the use of hard drugs for sex!! It kills!
He was emphatic that Britain was trying to divide Southern again for the North to conquer but that they had failed.
He asked people to ignore any divisive statements regarding Yoruba or any other ethnic group in Nigeria, credited to him, urging that to really situate what he said, one must listen to the about 2hour broadcast.
He said: “I made a broadcast a few days ago when young people were being slaughtered at Lekki Tollgate. In that very speech, I was very clear and unambiguous but the people who cut and paste and put the clips together were trying to be very mischievous. Their intension was to infuse an element of tribalism or ethnicity in the ongoing campaign of young people to free themselves from the bondage they have found themselves in Nigeria. And that intension I believe, failed woefully. At no time did I insinuate or say anything conveying the erroneous impression that they are now peddling that we were going to take over or control Lagos State…
“My stand is that I support our young people, I support the protesters, I also support the right of people to express their views without being distorted. As I said before, they cut out what I said and then quoted me out of context. If you want to know what I said, and the context I made the statements, you have to listen to the whole perspective (broadcast)”.
All we need is reformed government, the government that can change things in oder and for the benefit of the citizens, issue of tribalism is becoming to much in this country , people are dying day and night as in if we don’t have people responsible to stop this; no hope for this country again!!
Sincerely I thought Igbo people have sence before, I didn’t know that common Fulani is better than them. They are all criminals, killing police cutting off their heads in the name of what? Am speechless
