NNAMDI Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, wants to know why nothing happens to people who declare Oduduwa Republic.

He posed the question in a video that was made public recently. In it Kanu asked: “Why is it that people can declare Oduduwa Republic and nothing will happen to them?”

Below are excerpts of some of the things he said: “They can never change … That is why I do not want one Nigeria and I can never be …

“I can never want it. Did the Yorubas not announced Oduduwa Republic the other day? Has anyone been arrested?

“Why Is it that we declare Biafra and they are arresting and shooting at us and Ohanaeze has said nothing.

“Ohanaeze has been terrorized into a state of silence and stupor by Hausa Fulani, who are using their political terrorism to terrorize people everywhere they go. Hausa Fulani use their terrorism to sack one of our sisters in the Pensions Board.

“There are law enforcement agents to enforce the law and the law says if you remove somebody from the Pensions Board from a particular geo-political zone and when you are looking for a replacement you go back to the ethnic group and pick a replacement but Nigerians are lawless animals.

“They removed an Igbo woman from the South East and replaced her with a Yoruba woman from the South West.” – Vanguard
