We Will Hit The Streets For More Protests On Jan. 18th If Kanu Is Not Released- IPOB

The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has threatened to
continue its protest in the South East and South South states of the federation
if by January 18, 2016, its leader and Director of Radio Biafra, Mr. Nnamdi
Kanu was not released from the cell of Department of State Services, DSS.

IPOB alleged that apart from denying Mr. Kanu access to his
doctors, the Federal Government through the DSS, has devised another way of
complicating his already deteriorating health condition, by making him to sleep
on bare floor, thereby making him to contract pneumonia, which may possibly
kill him. Meanwhile the Ohanaeze Ndigbo is begging Presidnet Buhari to release
Kanu to Igbo leaders assuring they will make him realize the futility of
continuing his pro-Biafra stance.

Chairman of state presidents of Ohanaeze in the seven Igbo
-speaking states, Dr. Chris Eluemunoh, told reporters in Awka, Anambra State,
that Igbo leaders were equally concerned with the security challenges posed by
the activities of the pro-Biafra group, adding that once Kanu was released to
Igbo leaders, they would sit him down and discuss with him and make him realize
the negative effects of continuing with efforts to actualize the Biafra
Republic.
