Finland-based blogger Simon Ekpa urged that orders and messages from Nnamdi Kanu, the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), be ignored.
The self-proclaimed leader of the alleged IPOB faction who made the remark in a trending video broadcast, said the Biafra struggle is now on “autopilot”.
“The day of this new dimension has come. Let me make it very clear that we are not going to receive any order from anybody that is in DSS dungeon,” the former IPOB ally said.
Since the kidna of Nnamdi Kanu in 2021, Ekpa has criticized the Directorate of State (DOS) led IPOB leadership, saying it compromised after it “received money from the Nigerian government to sabotage the Biafra movement.”
Ifeanyi Ejiofor, Kanu’s lawyer, was also attacked by the Finland-based blogger who called for his arrest last week and said he was a member of IPOB.
Meanwhile, many southeasterners and statesmen, including Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe, criticized Ekpa as reports leaked that the criminal gang he allegedly recruited were responsible for the violence and enforcing of Mondays aasit-at-home suspended in the region.
