Emmanuel Kanu, the younger
brother to the leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB),
Nnamdi Kanu, has spoken on his brother’s appearance at a worship place in
Israel.
He spoke with newsmen in Umuahia,
after the news went viral on Friday.
“I can boldly confirm to you that
the person in the video is my brother, Kanu. He was praying in the video that
we saw.
“We are happy that he is still
alive and we will try to establish communication with him,” Emmanuel said.
He said that the news was
received with wild jubilation in their family and Isiama Afaraukwu community in
general.
“Everybody in my family and the
entire community is celebrating and thanking God since we received the news,”
he said.
He said that the Deputy Director
of the organisation, Uche Ejiofor, also confirmed the online video report, when
the family spoke with him on cell phone.
Afaraukwu community had declared
Kanu and his parents missing in the aftermath of the Sept. 14, 2017 alleged
invasion of their country home by members of the “Operation Pyton Dance II.”
Leaders of the three component
villages of Afaraukwuad also claimed that the whereabouts of Kanu’s father, Eze
Israel Kanu, remained unknown.
They claimed that Kanu’s father,
who was the traditional ruler of Isiama Afaraukwu in Umuahia North Local
