The IPOB leader issued the directive in a message to Simon Ekpa, which was made public on Friday by his Special Counsel, Aloy Ejimakor.
Addressing
journalists in Enugu, Ejimakor quoted Kanu as saying: “Simon, this is a direct
order from me. I hereby instruct you to desist from calling for any sit-at-home
henceforth. Equally, refrain from antagonising governors or persons in
political positions because you are not in a position to know what they are
doing on my behalf.
The leader
of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu, has directed
Finland-based Biafra agitator, Simon Ekpa to end all sit-at-home in the
Southeast.
Kanu also
directed Ekpa to stop antagonising governors of the southeast or politicians
from the region.
Simon Ekpa
warned on behalf of Kanu said that
anyone enforcing sit-at-home in the southeast is not his disciple and should be
made to face the wrath of the law.
“I am
ordering you to make a public announcement to the effect that you are in
receipt of a direct order from me to cancel any pending sit-at-home in place at
the moment.
“I
embarked on this movement to liberate our people, not to enslave them. I
despise and will despise any person or entity that wishes to inflict
unnecessary hardship on our people. I have authorised Aloy to issue a press
statement if you fail to make this announcement on your platform.
“Anybody
still engaging in sit-at-home is not my disciple. Haters of Biafra and mindless
murderers in uniform are hiding under the cover of combating enforcers of
Sit-at-Home to unleash mayhem against the same people we swore to defend.
“I have
sent countless messages to those purportedly enforcing sit-at-home that they
are not doing so in my name. I am not begging anybody to release me, just that
Nigeria should have the decency to obey their own laws.”
