The detained leader of the indigenous People Of Biafra, IPOB, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, has directed his self acclaimed prime Minister, Simon Ekpa who sit far away in Finland to end the Sit-At-Home madness in the region. Kanu also warned Ekpa against antagonising the southeast governors and other political leaders in the region. The IPOB leader also warned Ekpa and other Biafrans sympathisers to desist from enforcing the sit-at-home because they are inflicting more injuries on the same people they are claiming to protect.
Kanu said, any one enforcing the sit-at-home madness in the southeast has seized to be his disciple and shall be handed over to the law enforcement.
Knau made this directive while in detention through his counsel, Aloy Ejimakor which was made public by the, Kanu lawyer.
Addressing journalist in Enugu today, Ejimakor quoted Kanu as saying: “Simon, this is a direct order from me. I hereby instruct you to desist from calling for any sit-at-home henceforth. Equally, refrain from antagonising governors or persons in political positions because you are not in a position to know what they are doing on my behalf.
“I am ordering you to make a public announcement to the effect that you are in receipt of a direct order from me to cancel any pending sit-at-home in place at the moment.
The statement added, “I embarked on this movement to liberate our people, not to enslave them. I despise and will despise any person or entity that wishes to inflict unnecessary hardship on our people. I have authorised Aloy to issue a press statement if you fail to make this announcement on your platform.
The IPOB leader warned that “Anybody still engaging in sit-at-home is not my disciple. Haters of Biafra and mindless murderers in uniform are hiding under the cover of combating enforcers of Sit-at-Home to unleash mayhem against the same people we swore to defend.
“I have sent countless messages to those purportedly enforcing sit-at-home that they are not doing so in my name. I am not begging anybody to release me, just that Nigeria should have the decency to obey their own laws.”
