Nnamdi Kanu Blows Hot, Reveals What Was Used Against IPOB In Obigbo Massacre

Nnamdi Kanu leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, alleges that lies were used against IPOB to justify Obigbo massacre.

Infoexpert24 reports that Kanu claims that the Nigerian Army Defense Headquarters is blocking independent investigations into the #ObigboMassacre alleging that Wike and the Federal government are lying against IPOB.

Nnamdi Kanu, in a statement through IPOB’s Media and Publicity Secretary Emma Powerful, has challenged the Nigerian Army to allow independent investigation into the #ObigboMassacre.

His statement read:

“If all the outlandish concoctions and outright lies against IPOB used to justify ObigboMassacre were true, why is the Nigerian Army Defense Headquarters obstructing independent investigations?

Governor Nyesom Wike demonized Obigbo people just to kill them and sadly, the killings are still ongoing but no action was taken by International Criminal Court – ICC, US Ambassador to Nigeria, UK High Commissioner to Nigeria, EU Mission to Nigeria, etc.

“It is now clear the international community no longer cares about victims of state orchestrated mass murder like what obtained in Obigbo. Appealing to the moral sense of responsibility of conscientious civilised nations no longer work. Perhaps, they want survivors of these brutal massacres all over Nigeria to go into armed resistance.

“Meanwhile, the much ‘respected’ terror franchise like Boko Haram, ISWAP, herdsmen and bandits are busy chopping off the heads of rice farmers in Borno. The cowardly bunch of murderers in uniform only have power over unarmed citizens.

“Countries like the United States of America, especially those apologists for impunity in Nigeria at the US State Department, United Kingdom, Czech Republic, Turkey and European Union that supply arms to Nigeria are equally culpable in the murder of innocent people at Obigbo in Rivers State and Lekki toll gate in Lagos State.”

Recall that Kanu has on several occassions accused Governor Nyesom Wike of issuing the order to target Igbos in Rivers  because, according to him, they are the kernel of support for the IPOB in Rivers State. Wike, of course, denied ever giving the order to kill the Igbos in Obigbo.

But if Wike did not give the order, who did?
