The leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, has said urged critics of the Biafra agitation to have a rethink, saying the Republic is a place where things will work.
Speaking in Umuahia, Abia State, the IPOB leader said many people have misconception about the agitation, adding that the clamour for Biafra Republic is about his people and their freedom.
He said, “I believe that you are aware that America and Canada have been giving people visa to come and live in their place and only those who are ready to abide by their rules go there.
“That is exactly the kind of life style we are going to adopt as we have no intention to discriminate against anyone who wants to live in our land. It will be a country where everything will work the way it is supposed to work.”
Kanu said many politicians are afraid of identifying with the cause “because they think we are after their position which has made them to allow the status quo to remain at the detriment of our people.”
“We are not after any politician position and will never be. All we want is to ensure that things are done the right way so that our people can be free from modern day slavery,” he added.
