Nnamdi Kanu Is A Hypocrite, He Secretly Accepted To Renounce Biafra – MEND




 Defunct militant group, Movement
for the Emancipation of the Niger
Delta, MEND, has alleged that the
incarcerated leader of the
Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi
Kanu, secretly agreed to denounce
the struggle for the actualisation of
Biafra despite claiming otherwise in
public.
The former Niger Delta agitators had
recently claimed that during its
alleged ongoing negotiations with the
Federal Government, Kanu had
registered his interest to renounce
Biafra secretly in exchange for his
freedom.
But lawyers of the incarcerated IPOB
leader, had last week distant Kanu
from such agreement saying the
IPOB leader remains committed to
the struggle.
However, in a statement by its
spokesperson, Jomo Gbomo, MEND
described Kanu as a hypocrite who
after sealing discussion with MEND
privately went public denying the
claim.
The statement reads, “The attention
of the Movement for the
Emancipation of the Niger Delta
(MEND) has been drawn to the
recent spate of hypocritical and
provocative statements issued by the
Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB)
and its leader, Nnamdi Kanu,
purported to dissociate IPOB/Kanu
from some of the concessions, which
have so far been secured by MEND
in the ongoing talks aimed at
resolving the current Niger Delta
crisis between the Federal
Government and MEND.
“MEND hereby uses this opportunity
to inform the entire world that
following the group’s ongoing
negotiations with the Federal
Government, Nnamdi Kanu has
made it clear that he is willing to
renounce “Biafra” in secret; in
exchange for his freedom.
“MEND and the Federal Government
have, however, flatly rejected the
IPOB/Kanu hypocrisy to remain
defiant in public; while accepting to
secretly renounce secession.
“MEND, therefore, urges the already
frustrated and desperate Mr. Kanu
and IPOB to swallow their pride and
make a public denunciation of
‘Biafra.
The former agitators further urged
followers of the struggle to “become
fully aware that the so-called ‘Biafra
Republic’ is merely a business
venture and scam whose sole
beneficiaries are Kanu, directors of
IPOB and their families and
cronies.”
