We’ll Carryout All Sacrifices For Nnamdi Kanu’s Release – IPOB

On Sunday, the Indigenous People of Biafra, or IPOB, threatened to make any sacrifice necessary to secure the release of its leader, Nnamdi Kanu, from detention.

While upholding the sanctity of its Monday sit-at-home directive, IPOB made the comment.

The Southeast will be closed every Monday from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. until its leader, Nnamdi Kanu, is released, according to the group.

Since being rearrested and repatriated from an unknown African country, Kanu has been held by the Department of State Services (DSS) in Abuja.

His imprisonment was ordered by Justice Binta Nyako, who presided over an Abuja Federal High Court.

IPOB proclaimed a daily Monday sit-at-home order in response to his continuing incarceration by the DSS.

The order’s purpose is to compel the pro-Biafra agitator’s release.

Emma Powerful, an IPOB spokesman, urged the people of the Southeast to support the peaceful protest.

IPOB asked residents in the Southeast to stay indoors to avoid confrontation with security officers in a statement he published, Powerful.

The statement reads partly: “The entire Biafra land will be locked down every Monday from 6:00am to 6:00pm beginning from tomorrow, August 9, 2021until our leader, Nnamdi Kanu who was abducted in Kenya and brought back to Nigeria and locked up in DSS dungeon in clear violation of international laws is freed.

“Consequently, there will be no movement throughout Biafra land on Mondays until our leader who is suffering for our freedom is released. This protest is peaceful but firm. Everybody is advised to stay indoors in total compliance.

“We want his immediate release and our total freedom, and cannot hesitate to pay any sacrifice needed to achieve this including locking down the entire Biafra land on Mondays.

“All residents and visitors in Biafra land are advised to comply with the order. Nobody should go out to avoid any clash or intimidation by the wicked Nigeria security agents.”
