Nnamdi Kanu Challenges Buhari To Send An Army To The Southeast, Claiming That Any Army Sent There Will Die
Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, the embattled leader of the banned Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), has reacted to President Muhammadu Buhari’s vow to shock Igbos with his civil war experience.
Buhari stated on Tuesday that hoodlums destroying state facilities in the South-East will be dealt with as soon as possible.
“Many of those who are misbehaving today are too young to remember the carnage and deaths that transpired during the Nigerian Civil War. Those of us who spent 30 months in the fields and lived through the conflict will speak to them in their own language,” he added.
His remarks enraged Nigerians, who said he was threatening genocide against one of the country’s largest tribes.
Most Nigerians believe that the military, who are known for their regular breaches of human rights and crimes against humanity, will extrajudicially kill innocent civilians if the president’s latest command to shoot-at-sight is followed.
While the secessionist group has denied responsibility for the attacks, its militia branch, the Eastern Security Network (ESN), is claimed to be hunting down aggressive ranchers in the woods.
According to NEWS DIRECT, Buhari’s genocidal remark has been removed from Twitter.
Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, has reacted to the Nigerian leader’s words (IPOB). Mr Kanu, who narrowly avoided being slain by the military in 2017 when they surrounded his Afaraukwu home in Umuahia, Abia State, says he will not respond to the president, whom he had previously said was dead.
He informed the president’s spokesman on Twitter Wednesday morning that none of the soldiers dispatched to the east will return alive.
“It is not for the living to respond to the dead, but given the lack of logic common in #Zoo Nigeria, I wish to assure @GarShehu, @elrufai, and that Fulani lapdog Femi Adesina that any army they deploy to #Biafraland would perish there. None of them will make it back alive,” he wrote on Twitter.
