Leader of the Indigenous People
of Biafra, IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu says intelligence reports gathered by the security
arm of his organization shows that all state governors of the South east zone
were working to return President Muhammadu Buhari in the forthcoming
presidential poll.
Kanu stated this in a broadcast
delivered on Radio Biafra network in Israel, and monitored by our
correspondent.
He said, “The fact still remains
that what happens in Nigeria is selection not election, if not why would Dave
Umahi in PDP be campaigning for a murderous APC government that killed his own
people.
“Why would Willie Obiano of
Anambra State a supposed Igbo man be campaigning so viciously against Peter Obi
his mentor and godfather? We know the all powerful INEC is owned and run by
Fulani cabal under the direct supervision of Aso Rock which they also own.
“Only INEC announced results are
considered valid so all it takes for a candidate to win, is to be in the good
books of the Fulani cabal running Nigeria and you are guaranteed success. Those
hoping that Atiku will sweep Biafraland because of the Obi factor are misguided
because almost every governor in the South East is working for Jubril(Buhari).”
Kanu said several other prominent
Igbo sons were backing Buhari to win the presidential election, in a contest
where their brother, Peter Obi was a running mate to a major candidate, and
also went ahead to list former Central bank governor, Prof Charles Soludo and
Engr Arthur Eze as some of Buhari’s major backers in the zone.
”What should bother everyone more
as I study the lives of Igbo big men is the emptiness of their mindless
acquisition. After all the contracts Arthur Eze listed, I couldn’t trace any
major industry, successful business, university organized philanthropy linked
to him. What a shame. Even Soludo of all people is working for Jubril(Buhari),”
he said.
Kanu said his group will not back
down on the earlier declared election boycott, saying, “This current path we
have chosen – the path of boycotting the 2019 elections – is a well considered
one geared to leaving no one in doubt that we mean business. We know that some
people are wondering what IPOB expects to gain when it refuses to participate
in elections.
“I am keenly aware that, at
first, the logic of a boycott makes little sense to many. Some have said that
by participating in elections, IPOB will have a chance of helping to elect
politicians amenable to self-determination and ultimately a Referendum. Well,
that’s true but only in theory. In practice, experience has shown that votes
hardly count in Nigeria; and where they may count, we have not yet seen any
candidate willing to commit to the changes we demand, such that the boycott
could be reconsidered as a whole, or piecemeal for such candidate.”
He also berated the governor of
Ebonyi State, Umahi, saying his recent allegation of IPOB threatening to kidnap
him and other South east governors was meant to incite the Nigeria Army against
the group.
He described the the allegation
as a very strong one, but stated that it has been proven that IPOB was not a
violent organization, and that it never planned such.
