Prince Emmanuel Kanu, younger brother of leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, has stated that no part of Nigeria can do anything without Biafra.
Emmanuel said this in a telephone chat yesterday with Sun Newspaper reporter while reacting to the Arewa Youths quit notice to Igbos. He said IPOB has nothing to do with it as it would not add or subtract anything from the agitation for a state of Biafra.
“We are not interested in what the Arewa youths are doing or saying, but all I can tell you is that IPOB is firm and resolute in its quest for a state of Biafra, and I don’t think anything can stop it.
“It is a known fact, for which they have now realised, that no section of Nigeria can do without Biafra, unless they want their economy to collapse beyond redemption.”
He said the North was going to benefit more from the Igbo under the state of Biafra “because they are going to be our strong economic neighbours with enhanced and flourishing trade and commerce.”
The junior Kanu said it was absurd for Shettima to ask the Igbo who believe in Nigeria to remain, insisting that “all Igbo are Biafrans, and as such, there should be no room for divisive tendencies.”
