IGBO leader and a Board of Trustees (BoT) of All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), Rommy Ezeo­nwuka, has called on the Federal Government to be cautious in handling the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) and other pro-Biafran groups.
The Ogirisi Igbo urged the government not to repeat what happened to Yusuf Muhammed, self-styled lead­er and founder of Boko Haram with Nnamdi Kanu’s case.
“It Yusuf were alive today, there could have prob­ably been an end to Boko Haram. Rather, Boko Haram is spreading because the leader that knows its secret code has been killed and no one knows how to decode it. Every activist has a special message from God. Asa­ri Dokubo, Tompolo and others emerged to prove that the Niger Delta where Nigeria gets all its money has been denied its due. Today, Kanu is saying Igbo are being cheated and maltreated in a country where Igbo have shown so much love, being the only tribe that has put 90 percent of its investments outside its tribal land.
The message of Kanu and Dokubo are almost the same. Someone must rise to talk about the maltreat­ment and cheating on his people and that is what Kanu is doing. He never preached violence like some did.”
Ezeonwuka urged Ndigbo to unite with one voice and seek Kanu’s release. “Asking for his release does not mean I am encouraging him to go ahead for the actualisation of Biafra. My previous stand on Biafra is that every Igbo man is already a Biafran since May 1967 when General Odumegwu Ojukwu (retd) de­clared the Republic of Biafra.
