Igbos Who Choose To Live In The North Choose To Be Sacrificial Lambs - Kanu by Masterclass32: 7:42am On Jul 25, 2017
Leader of the Indigenous People
of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi
Kanu yesterday said Igbos
vacating the North was not a
condition for the actualisation of
Biafra.

Kanu spoke in an interview with
journalists in Enugu, where he
received awards from a number
of pan-Igbo groups, including
the Igbo Women Assembly, the
Eastern Consultative Assembly and the Igbo Students Union.

While reacting to the quit notice
issued to Igbos in the
North, Kanu said secession does
not imply that Igbo must leave
any part of Nigeria.

He said, “You are aware that
Scotland is seeking to leave the
United Kingdom? Are you
remotely implying that every
person from Scotland, who lives
in England, should now return to Scotland?

“Britain just left the EU. Are
you now implying that every
British citizen in the EU should
come back to Britain in order to
finalise that process of
extraction of Britain from the EU?”

He described the Arewa Youth
who have the ultimatum as
‘inconsequential’.

Kanu, nonetheless, warned that Igbo, who resided in the North,
were doing so at their own peril.

He stated, “It is up to them.
They have been in the North,
and they (northerners) have
been killing us (Igbo) since 1945.

“If you choose to live in the
North, you choose to be a
sacrificial lamb because one day,
they will kill you. It is a choice
they have made and they will
have to live with it.”

He further insisted that the
governorship poll in Anambra
State, scheduled to hold on
November 18, 2017, would not
hold.

He added, “No, I’m not
(bothered) because the people
are with us. We control the
people 100 per cent and come
Anambra, on the 18th of
November, 2017, the whole world will be amazed.”

Kanu said IPOB did not intend to stop anybody who decided to
vote.

“We are entirely peaceful. We
are not stopping anyone from
voting. If you want to vote, you
can go and vote. We are
democrats,” he said.

The IPOB leader added, “We
are calling for a referendum so
that the people can actually
decide, once and for all, what
they want, for themselves; not
anybody deciding for them.

“I have not argued Biafra from
the standpoint of absolutism. I
am not saying you must vote
for Biafra. I am asking the
powers that be in Nigeria to
allow the people to determine for themselves.”

If he actually said that he has to apologize to the Igbo's up north. Relocating isn't easy

This your Kanu is not an intelligent Leader. How come he ended up being their leader. He talks carelessly.
