Press Statement:
NNAMDI KANU SACKS LAWYERS FOR SPEAKING AGAINST NIGER DELTA AVENGERS AND MISLEADING THE PUBLIC OVER NEGOTIATIONS WITH GOVERNMENT
Following the press conference earlier today by our legal
team, the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) Worldwide has been reliably and
incontrovertibly informed that some of the utterances of their defence lawyers
were made without consultation. These utterances border on negotiations and
some were against the Niger Delta Avengers.
As
as a result of this unsolicited and unguarded utterances, the defence
team has been sacked and will be replaced. The IPOB leader wishes to state
categorically that the only thing we are open to is negotiations that will lead
to modalities and processes to restore Biafra and avert further hardships on
the people of Nigeria who have been under bondage since his kidnapping and
illegal detention.
The Niger Delta Avengers arose because of the inherent
injustice in Nigeria as manifested in the disregard to the rule of law when
Buhari refused to obey court order to unconditionally release our leader,
Nnamdi Kanu. We spoke the mind of our leader when we stated for record purposes
that IPOB and Niger Delta Avengers share the same ideology of freedom for
Biafra. Anybody publicly dissociating IPOB from Niger Delta Avengers is a
mortal enemy of IPOB family worldwide under the leadership of Nnamdi Kanu. Let
it be known that as long as Buhari and Daura continue to tamper with Nnamdi
Kanu‘s defence team through bribery, inducements and intimidation, IPOB will
keep on changing the team.
For the records, the press conference by the now-sacked legal team was about bringing to public
knowledge the foolishness of the Department
of State Services (DSS) in bringing treasonable felony charges against
our leader and the lack of evidence thereof. The press conference was NEVER
about negotiations because should negotiations start, IPOB will notify the
world about it. Right now, we are not negotiating and will not negotiate until
existing court orders ordering the release of Nnamdi Kanu are obeyed.
In the interim, Barrister Ifeanyi Ejiofor will continue to
act as lead counsel until other counsels are appointed who will not sell their
souls to the devil. Biafra or death!!!
Signed
Barrister Emma Nmezu
