IPOB Sacks Nnamdi Kanu As Leader For 'Valuing His Dog Above Murdered Members' | Sahara Reporters

During a broadcast aired on Sunday from his base in Israel, Kanu mourned his dog and “a few other people” in his compound, who lost their lives when troops of Operation Python Dance invaded his residence in September 2017. However, the group said Kanu was an "insensitive and callous leader that has no value for his own followers but rather his dog, Jack whom he paid tributes to after his long disappearance from the struggle".

, one of the leaders of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), says Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the group, has been sacked.

According to Mbakwe, the sack was as a result of the Sunday broadcast credited to Kanu, which he said was a clear indication that Kanu prefers his dog, Jack, to those murdered in the struggle for the realisation of Biafra.

During a broadcast aired on Sunday from his base in Israel, Kanu mourned his dog and “a few other people” in his compound, who lost their lives when troops of Operation Python Dance invaded his residence in September 2017.

"The Army of the zoo killed my dog Jack and a few other people in my compound. I am sorry for what my sureties are passing through, but I want to assure them that they will have a special place in Biafra. I shall not be honouring the court,” the IPOB leader had said in his broadcast.

However, the group said Kanu was an "insensitive and callous leader that has no value for his own followers but rather his dog, Jack whom he paid tributes to after his long disappearance from the struggle".

They also referred to him as a "traitor not worthy of any leadership position anywhere in the world".

The international media arm of the proscribed group had announced Kanu's sack in 2017, noting that he was “dismissed and removed as Director of Radio Biafra following extensive and intensive consultations”. The group said the reasons for which Kanu was removed include “personalisation of the Biafran struggle and derailing from the core objectives of IPOB as a grassroots movement".

Meanwhile, a statement by Olisa Mbakwe, Director of Strategy and Documentation of IPOB, obtained by SaharaReporters on Monday, read: "On Sunday, October 21, 2018, an individual, Mazi Nnamdi Nwanekaenyi Kanu, claiming to be the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) and Director General of Radio Biafra made a live broadcast that has left us perplexed, because it is unthinkable that someone will impersonate IPOB to the point of plotting to abuse the organization to hurt the interest of Biafra.

"The strength of the Republic of Biafra that we are struggling to actualize, is in its human resources as embodied in our versatile youths that dominate the fields of play across sectors of human endeavor; the country we have set our vision on creating is therefore not to be made up of tombstones but of people fulfilling their life missions as ordained by God.

“Nnamdi Kanu relinquished his position as the leader of IPOB struggle the day he deserted our members to die, when they had mobilized to stand for our belief in Biafra at his residence in Afaraukwu. Several of our members were injured and some died in that encounter and even after emerging from hiding more than one year later all Kanu could do was to desecrate their memory with his radio broadcast. Nnamdi Kanu vividly, specifically and particularly recalled his family dog, Jack, by name while he dismissed our members that died as mere statistics — he only recalled them as 28 IPOB members.

“Even if Kanu had not deserted, there is no way we would have continued under the leadership of a man that values his family dog more than Biafrans.

“We are not unmindful of how Kanu struck the deal that granted him bail in the first place while abandoning our members, Benjamin Madubugwu, David Nwawusi, Bright Chimezie Ishinwa and Chidiebere Onwudiwe to languish in jail. Instead of using his freedom to accelerate the freedom of these authentic freedom fighters, he rather went about Biafra land receiving obeisance from Biafrans like a monarch, when our dear land is completely republican. The travails of these our brothers are not over yet and might have been worsened by Kanu’s live broadcast, which has totally upset us.

“In line with the decisions earlier announced on Radio Biafra on November 17, 2017 that Mazi Ezenwachukwu Sampson Okwudili is the new director for the radio, we reaffirm that Mazi Nnamdi Nwanekaenyi Kanu remains sacked as the Director of Radio Biafra and has also been removed as the leader of IPOB since he has proven he is not a worthy leader that respects the sanctity of the lives of our members.

“Following interventions by our leaders, considerations were being made to reverse the earlier announcement but after studying the Kanu’s live broadcast from Israel we came to the painful conclusion that we cannot make progress with our vision of Biafra, when one man has completely personalized and commercialized the struggle. The decision to drop Nnamdi Kanu from playing leading roles in IPOB affairs is hereby upheld. We shall announce replacements after consultations with the various stakeholders.”

Gbaha nkiti ka ike gwuha. Onye atuyalaha onu.

How this stupid fellow called Cownu continues to deceive a whole Ndigbo that claim to "know it all" baffles me to my bone marrows.

Why can't people rise up, see that this is nothing but wayo wayo to enrich himself, family and undue popularity.

This Albino scammer should be decisively dealt with once and for all so that all this rubbish will stop.

Ndi Iberibe!

Terrorist nnamdi kanu is in big trouble,
Buhari always put terrorist in big trouble,
That is how Boko Haram rejected shekau and replace with al-banawi.

Fonjas are really not intelligent people. I still wonder how kanu "valued dog than human"
He mentioned that 28 youths were killed before mentioning dog.. And even honored them with A MINUTE SILENCE before his speech.

Or do u expect him to mention 28people one after the other..
How foolish does that sound .

hw true is d news...no source op

the OP is definitely a student of LIE mohammed

Lol. These people sef... Smh

What is wrong with compiling the names of the 28 and reading them out?

I couldn't bring myself to align with baifra struggle as championed by that coward.

Probably because nothing he ever said made sense to me. His choice of words that were full of emptiness, his incoherent speeches, he overshoots his confidence and above all, he is a charlatan.

It's amazing how he managed to derive so much adherants in Igbo land.

Stupid followership is not domiciled in one tribe after all.

We all know the name of his dog is jack, but funny enough, we don't know the names of his members that foolishly gave their lives for his fraudulent biafra struggle. The fraudster never mentioned their names. Lol isn't that funny?

Personally, I've grown to love the Igbo but their tendencies to implode have cost them too much.


I wonder who would take his place. Maybe, just maybe a violent, blood thirsty secessionist.

How many of your soldiers killed by Boko haram has Buhari mentioned by name during his speeches?

You don't know the names of those killed? You people care so much about the names of those killed but you don't care to ask your government why they sent Soldiers to go and kill unarmed innocent people in Kanu's home. What you people care about is the names but not the lives? Laughable people.

They have brought another TRIPOB and REIPOB.

I'm happy that Nnamdi Kanu's speech is all over the internet and everyone can hear when Nnamdi pray for the dead and honour them by observing a minute silence

The awolowo free education was not really useful to u guy..
U lack critical reasoning..
Seriously think about it how do u expect him to start calling 28peoplw names one after the other.
Before he started his speech he allowed a minute of silence for them and even mentioned them before calling his dog..

U people didn't ask why was battalion sent to invade the house of a man who has court case to answer
U afonja a brothers to the devil, wicked souls with no conscience..

Just 28 names are too much for a freedom fighter to list in his speech?

They are soldiers and they get their burial in the manner of the military.

Anyway, it appears as if Jack is more important.

How many accident victims of Nigeria extraction has Buhari rushed to foreign hospital for treatment apart from his son?.

We know only Mazi Nnamdi Kanu. The contraption seriously fighting back to water down d struggle. Case of divide and rule from within. Every one knows d highest one can do for d fallen heroes in a public speech like this was to observe a minute silence which was timely observed in d broadcast.
