Give Me Biafra Or I Die, Nnamdi Kanu Dares FG Again

Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, the self-styled leader of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).

The self-styled leader of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Mazi Nnamdi Kanu has reiterated his desire to see the founding of the State of Biafra or he dies. He said this while berating those calling for his re-arrest, threatening fire and brimstone, if anyone dared to re-arrest him.

While speaking at Boys Technical College (BTC), Aba, the Abia State Capital Sunday 27th August, 2017 on the growing calls from several quarters for his re-arrest having severally broken the bail conditions that brought him temporary freedom from his two-year incarceration in prison, he said death awaits those who would dare to arrest him.

It will be recalled that the Federal Government, feeling disturbed over the flagrant abuse of the bail conditions by Kanu, it has submitted a petition to the Justice Binta Nyako-led Federal High Court in Abuja to void his bail on grounds of violation of the set conditions.

However, the IPOB leader in his reaction said, no one could arrest him, boasting that anyone making such an attempt would meet their waterloo in his native Southeast Region, which he calls Biafraland. He added that the Federal Government would be wasting its time coming to arrest him, maintaining that the aspiration for a Sovereign State of Biafra was a done deal, which cannot be stopped by the Government of Nigeria since, according to him, it was a “message from heaven.”

“The message of heaven is what I bring to you. Don’t be afraid. The plans of our enemies are not going to be actualized. The enemies are planning, but we are formidable.”

Speaking further, he said, “Where we are, is Biafra Land. Aba is the spiritual capital of Biafra land. We started in Aba in 2015 at CKC (Christ the King Catholic Cathedral). That day, heaven authenticated our move that IPOB will restore Biafra and that’s what we’ve come to do. We died in Aba; at National High School. They shot and killed us in other places in Biafra land when they were protesting for my release. As our people rest in their graves, we will never rest until Biafra is restored. I don’t care what they say in Abuja. I don’t give a damn what they say in Lagos. I am a Biafran and we are going to crumble the zoo. Some idiots who are not educated said that they will arrest me, and I ask them to come. I am in Biafra land. If any of them leaves Biafra land alive know that this is not IPOB. Tell them that is what I said.”

Furthermore, he added, “Tell Buhari that I am in Aba and any person who comes to arrest Nnamdi Kanu in Biafra land will die here. I’ll never go on exile I assure you. Some people talk about restructuring, are we doing restructuring of Nigeria now? Are we doing fiscal federalism? Are we doing devolution? What we want is Biafra! Forget all the nonsense they write about us. We are not slowing down and no man born of a woman can stop us. They thought we are joking and God gave us a simple message that no one can stop us. The movement to restore Biafra is unstoppable. We are going to boycott Anambra State election. After Anambra 2017, in 2019, there will be no elections in Biafra land. Signed and sealed. My message is that there will not be election in Biafra land ever again until they give us date for referendum,” he boasted.

As of now, it remains to be seen what the authorities would next. Who blinks first? The Fed3eral Government, or Nnamdi Kanu?
