The Nnamdi Kanu led Indigenous People of Biafra
(IPOB) rejected the plea of the governors of the Southeast zone of
Nigeria during a meeting between the pro-Biafra group and the politicians.
The closed door meeting held at the Enugu Government House
where the governors attempted to convince Kanu to drop his agitation for
Biafra but failed. According to reports, the meeting also failed to stop his
threat against the November 18 governorship election in Anambra state.
The governors had invited Kanu to discuss issues concerning the alleged
violation of his bail conditions for which the Federal Government had asked an
Abuja High court to issue an order to re-arrest him. They pleaded he talks
to his supporters to relapse on IPOB pursuit.
At the meeting, Kanu is quoted to have said,
'these are the people
that sent me. I didn't send myself. If you leaders genuinely love this land and
her people, you will not call these people my supporters but our supporters.
They are pursuing the most sacred cause in life. That is freedom! You don't
kill people who are begging for breathe and life. It is sacrilegious but you
have done such. Biafrans want freedom which is life'.
