federal government, and that is the restoration of the republic of Biafra.
“Nothing has changed; our position is still the same. What we want is referendum on Biafra. We have told them what we want, and we cannot compromise that position. So, let them convey same to the Federal Government. No more no less.”
Kanu said that he would continue to respect elders but would not yield any to any amount of pressure that would make him drop the quest for Biafra restoration “because that is why I was born.”
He encouraged Biafrans all over the world “to remain resolute, determined and focused on the struggle,” which according to him would soon be realised.
On the move by the federal government to nullify his bail and re-arrest him Kanu dismissed speculations that he had disappeared from public view to evade going back to detention, saying that he was not afraid of being re-arrested.
“Nigeria should be afraid of me and not me afraid of them,” he said, adding, “there is no way a person of my status and position will go under ground. It is not possible . I lead from the front.”
