The leader of the
Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu, has boasted about the funeral
of his parents.
According to him, the
burial has brought the ‘divided’ people of Southeast and South South together
again.
Kanu’s parents, HRH Eze
Israel Kanu and his wife, Ugoeze Sally Kanu, who died last year, were laid to
rest on Friday in their royal compound in Afaraukwu community, Umuahia, the
Abia State capital.
The IPOB leader was absent
during his parents’ burial ceremony. Kanu was last seen in Nigeria on September
10, 2017 after some soldiers invaded his residence in Afaraukwu community in
Abia State.
The burial was well
attended by politicians, traditional and religious leaders from the two
neighbouring regions and beyond. Nnamdi Kanu tweeted, “I’m joyful my parent’s
burial finally brought the artificially divided people of SE and SS together as
one Biafran family.“ Thank you Biafrans, friends and well-wishers for a truly
memorable funeral.”
