The insistence by the British government that it was not
aware of the arrest of Biafra agitator and IPOB leader, Nnamdi Kanu, may be
inaccurate.
The world power had refuted speculations that Kanu was
arrested in Britain during a sting operation in conjunction with Nigeria.
A source close to federal authorities disclosed on Tuesday night that the United Kingdom denied knowledge for bilateral reasons.
“Yes, Kanu was not apprehended in the UK. He was apprehended in an African nation but they know about it.
“What did you expect their officials to say? The British
government and Nigeria are allies; you think they will support one individual
over a long-time partner?
“I’m going to be sincere with you, it got to a point where
Britain was not comfortable about Kanu’s utterances.”
The informant added that the IPOB founder was reckless about
his movements and actions.
“You expect that someone with his influence would move about
in a heavy way. I mean, he should go to places with bodyguards since he
controls thousands of Eastern Security Network (ESN) operatives.
“But he did not. Kanu was going to clubs and lounges freely.
No protection, no armed boys around him! He likes women and was sighted
severally around them having fun.
“Intelligence experts figured since this appeared to be his
weakness, they should use a female operative to initiate a parley with him.
“On the day of his arrest, Kanu thought he was going for a
meeting to collect a huge donation to support the Biafra agitation. That didn’t
happen, he simply walked into a trap.”
The secessionist will return to court on July 26 at the
Federal High Court in Abuja. He faces treason charges for leading a movement to
make Nigeria ungovernable.
The government and security agencies blame Kanu for the
murder of dozens of security personnel and destruction of government
infrastructure in South-East and South-South.
Two links intelligence disclosed that the crimes were
perpetrated by the ESN, IPOB militia wing, also known as “unknown gunmen”.
“ESN has committed terrible atrocities. You will be shocked
when you hear things to be revealed during Kanu’s trial”, one said.
