Biafra: I Don’t Care If He Lives Or Dies – Okorocha Denies Calling For Kanu’s Ha by BALLOSKI: 6:01pm On Jan 20, 2016
The Imo State Governor, Rochas Okorocha has debunked claims that he called for the hanging of the Director of Radio Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, stressing that the death or continued existence of the pro-Biafra leader will not add any value to his life.

Okorocha, in a statement signed by his Chief Press Secretary, Mr. Sam Onwuemeodo, on Wednesday, described the allegations as unfounded and malicious.

He said the report published in the social media was a mere attempt to malign the Governor’s image ahead of the 2019 general elections.

The statement reads in part: “The attention of the Imo State Government has once again been drawn to another fictitious allegation in the social media claiming that the state Governor had called for the hanging of Mr. Nnamdi Kanu leader of the Indigenous people of Biafra, IPOB.

“Whether Kanu lives or dies, does not have any value to add to Governor Okorocha’s life including his politics. So one begins to wonder why Governor Okorocha should call for his hanging.

“If he dies, will Okorocha become Director of Radio Biafra or IPOB leader? You ask again, whether one million Nnamdi Kanu could constitute any threat to Okorocha in anyway.

“The answer is obviously No. Then what is Okorocha’s interest in Kanu’s death or life that he would call for his hanging.

“They did not mention the venue of the said meeting or those at the meeting. Incidentally, the same January 15, 2016 (Friday) was the day the Governor traveled out of the country for a brief vacation.

“The elements behind this latest moonlight tale also claimed that the Imo Governor had made the call on January 15, 2016 in a meeting with what they called Igbo Elders’ Forum.

“Governor Okorocha does not know Nnamdi Kanu. He reads about him on the pages of newspapers like every other Igbo man or Nigerian,” the statement added
