National Chairman of the Independent Democrats, Edozie Madu, on Tuesday mocked the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, to register a political party to test his popularity.
The leader of the Independent Democrats made the remark while stressing that Kanu lacks the power to stop any election in the country.
Speaking in Awka, the Anambra State capital, Madu described IPOB’s threat to disrupt the upcoming governorship election in November as an “empty one.”
According to Madu, “If Nnamdi Kanu of IPOB thinks his movement is popular he should form a political party where he will have all the powers and legitimacy to participate in elections the way he thinks.
“We are fully prepared and ready for the Anambra governorship election. We don’t listen to such talks. We don’t want to be distracted because we are out to win.”
Madu, who condemned the killings of worshippers at the St. Philips Catholic Church in Ozubulu, Anambra State, described the act as “barbaric and satanic.”
He assured that the President Muhammadu Buhari-led government would not allow the perpetrators of such dastardly act to go unpunished.
