The leader of Indigenous People of Biafra, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, has on Sunday the 28th of June, 2020, blamed the Southeast leaders and politicians over the incessant killings of villagers in their homes and farmlands across Southeast Nigeria by Fulani herdsmen. Kanu laid this blame through a worldwide broadcast on Radio Biafra London.

Kanu who was visibly angry over what he called 'a criminal silence' of the so called leaders, elders and politicians from the region wondered why it has become so difficult for the so-called leaders to make at least one press statement to condemn the killings, abduction and raping of little girls and mothers alike by the herdsmen. The IPOB helmsman argued that have the folks parading themselves as leaders in the Southeast have a modicum understanding of what leadership is all about, they would have made haste to put in place strategic plans to end the killings and bring justice to the families of the victims.

According to him, any leader or elder in any part of the world who is insensitive to the plight of his people does not deserve any respect from the people. He stressed that it is such gross insensitivity that birthed his constant verbal attacks on them, adding that his attacks are not out of hatred but a mental pull calculated to force appropriate authorities into rightful actions.

While the broadcast lasted, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu played two video clips confirming the killings in two towns of Anambra state. In one of the videos, a 22 years old girl from Agulu-Eri in Anambra West was abducted from their home by Fulani herdsmen. The abductors attacked their home and after injuring the mother severely and shooting sporadically, took away the girl. A second video showed how the herdsmen killed another young lady, dissected her and scattered her body parts all over the farmland.

Kanu decried the silence of Igbo leaders and elders, describing it as evil. He accused them of feigning ignorance for the fact that the people being killed are not their own children or immediate family members.

Speaking further, the IPOB Supreme Leader said that the so-called elders and politicians have sacrificed the lives and welfare of their own people for political gains, adding that such compromise emboldened the Fulani Janjaweed the more.

IPOB: We Spend over $100,000 US Dollars Monthly Fighting for Nigerian Christians – Nnamdi Kanu

By Princewill Akubumma | Biafra Writers

June 23, 2020

Speaking on Radio Biafra London in the evening of June 21, 2020, the Supreme Leader of Indigenous People of Biafra, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, reiterated that he is in no way fighting against the Nigerian Christians, rather, he is fighting to protect them and to bring their plight on the global stage. The freedom fighter said that he is using every available medium to see that Christians are free from persecutions in Nigeria by Islamic Jihadists. Kanu decried the high rate of murder committed against the Christian community in Nigeria by Fulani herdsmen, adding that the government clandestinely encourages such.


"Go to my twitter handle,” he said, “I fight for Christians every day. Your daddy GOs who are only interested in your tithes and offering cannot do that for you. We also spend close to $100, 000 US dollars every month to fight for you."

Recall that in his previous broadcast on Wednesday, the 17th day of June 2020, the IPOB leader asserted that virtually all Nigerian pastors and preachers of the gospel are living the life of hypocrisy and not that of Jesus Christ of Nazaret whom they claim to imitate. He stated that the so-called men of God shy away from truth, arguing that a true Christian should speak the truth at all times not minding whose ox is gored. The vibrant Biafra leader also accused the clergy of focusing only on tithes and offerings and other earthly wealth. Kanu’s broadcast set the social media on fire, with some Christian quarters quoting him out of context and attacks aimed at him and IPOB.

We should recall that Mazi Nnamdi Kanu has been on a diplomatic offensive in recent times. He has taken it upon himself to expose the atrocities being committed against Christians in Nigeria. No longer able to contain the injuries Kanu and IPOB are causing Nigeria internationally, Nigerian government recently accused him of hiding under the guise of protecting Christians in Nigeria to instigate the international community to demonize the country. Kanu’s activities, no doubt, have drawn the attention of international community to what is going on in Nigeria.

Nigeria governments’ accusations against Kanu is a proof that, contrary to the insinuations from some Christian quarters, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu is not against Christianity, rather he is against their hypocrisy which, according to him, does not portray the life of Christ. He only wants them to make amends and begin to do the needful as Christians.
