The Government of Israel has
denied knowledge of the presence of Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the outlawed
Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, in the country.

evidence about the sudden appearance of Kanu in the country.
Kanu last weekend appeared in a
video praying on the Wailing Wall in Jerusalem.

online, the IPOB leader could be seen donning an Israeli outfit used for
prayers while holding a book.
Just yesterday, Kanu addressed
his supporters from his based and declared that there will be no election in
South east come 2019.

claimed that the pictures and videos showing Kanu praying at the Wailing Wall
in Jerusalem could be old.
The Spokesperson of the Israeli
Foreign Ministry, Mr Emmanuel Nashon, speaking during an interactive section
with some African Journalists in Jerusalem, said there was no evidence that the
leader of IPOB was in their country of recent.
“There are no details about his
(Kanu) recent visit to this country yet,” Emmanuel said adding that the
pictures and videos could be old ones.
Speaking on their relationship
with Africa, Emmanuel said Israel has been misconstrued adding that they are
getting back to their old friends.
“Our relationship with Africa is
extremely important,” Emmanuel said, insisting that the continent stands to
benefit more from Israel.
“Israel is a peaceful nation that
believes in the process of the world at these changing times,” Emmanuel
disclosed, adding that they have different religions such as: Judaism,
Christianity and Islam that live peacefully with one another.
“Jerusalem is one of the great
cities in the world. We have Judaism, Christianity and Islam as religions. We are
considering a lot of networks with Africa and African journalists will get
direct contact with Israel journalist so that you don’t need to take news from
agencies.”
