The Indigenous People of Biafra has warned a former Governor of Kano State and presidential candidate of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP)Rabiu Kwankwaso, to stop linking it with the presidential candidate of the Labour Party(LP) and and a former of Anambra State,
Mr. Peter Obi. The group gave the warning in a statement on Tuesday by its media and publicity secretary, Emma Powerful. Stating that IPOB had no association with any Nigerian politician however, the group asked Kwankwaso to face his business and stop calling it for any reason any more henceforth.
The group said Obi was neither its member nor was IPOB interested in his (Obi’s) 2023 presidential bid. The group said,”The global family of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) under the command and leadership of our great leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu wishes to advice the former Governor of Kano State Alhaji Rabiu Kwankwaso not to involve IPOB in their selection process they call election in Nigeria. “The Nigerian politicians generally and Kwankwaso in particular
should desist from linking IPOB with Peter Obi, his political ambition and campaign. Peter Obi is not an IPOB member, never supported our agitation for freedom at any time because he pursues a totally different goal from that of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).
We have no interest in the Nigerian morally decadent and fantastically corrupt political system and landscape. “If Kwankwaso is threatened by Labour Party and Peter Obi’s teeming support by the creative and talented but downtrodden, neglected, deceived, deprived, killed (#EndSARS) Nigerian youths from even the North which your generation do not have any good intentions for, then he should go forward and settle his differences and stop linking IPOB to their problem. “IPOB is not interested in the worthless politics you play in Nigeria,
we don’t regard such daylight robbery, fraud, manipulation and selection as election. Maybe there is something Kwankwaso is not telling the world. Instead of saying the truth that because he is Fulani with the (born to rule mentality) he cannot play second fiddle to a Southern Christian presidential candidate,
he has the temerity to associate our hallowed liberation movement with the shameless mucky waters of the Zoo politics. “IPOB is not concerned with the waves of this election, we have never asked for nor said anything contrary to our goal and demand.
