The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) on Thursday, accused President Muhammadu Buhari and his Kenyan counterpart, Uhuru Kenyatta of crimes against its leader, Nnamdi Kanu over his secessionist agitations against the Nigerian state, IgbereTV reports.
This was contained in a statement issued on Thursday by the IPOB spokesman, Emma Powerful who further claimed that Buhari travelled to Kenya in order to cover up his role in the extradition of Kanu.
President Buhari, on Tuesday, travelled to Kenya to participate in the Commemoration of the 50th anniversary of the United Nations Environmental Programme (UNEP) scheduled for March 3 and 4.
Kanu was rearrested and repatriated to Nigeria in June 2021 from Kenya by security agents.
However, the Kenyan Government had repeatedly denied any involvement in the arrest and rendition of Kanu.
Powerful, in his statement, dismissed these claims saying, “Buhari went to Kenya to induce President Uhuru Kenyatta to see how both of them can collude in covering their crime against humanity which they committed via their roles in the extraordinary rendition of our leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.
“Buhari doesn’t want Uhuru Kenyatta to leak more information about what transpired in Kanu’s extraordinary rendition. The revelations so far made at the Kenya Court have made Buhari very uncomfortable, hence his desperation to stop further revelations.
“Nigeria and Kenya know what fate awaits them over their duplicity in that criminal act, hence the secret move by both Presidents to hold meetings on how to cover their flanks.
“Both Presidents know they are guests of the International Court. They cannot escape it!
“We, therefore, urge the international community to monitor Buhari’s unscheduled trip to Kenya. Buhari and his allies will never succeed in their desperation to scuttle the Biafra restoration struggle. The only thing that will save Uhuru Kenyatta is the truth. He shouldn’t allow Buhari to induce him against speaking the truth”, Powerful concluded
