Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has attributed the success and transparency recorded in the Edo election to the visa ban imposed as penalty for election riggers.
Kanu said this while mocking Nigerian politicians in a statement released by Emma Powerful.
The statement reads thus: “Here is Mary Beth Leonard, the courageous US Ambassador to Nigeria that delivered the first truly free and fair elections in the history of Nigeria in Edo State, something the EU and UK have failed to do for over 60 years.
“This amazing woman imposed ordinary visa ban on perennial election riggers and they quickly behaved themselves.
“Add a bit of Nyesom Wike and the tenacity of Igodomigodo and you have the perfect result.”
