Plot to assassinate Nnamdi Kanu: IPOB hits back on Buhari

•Kanu and Buhari

The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has reacted to the recent claims by the former media aide to former President Muhammadu Buhari, Femi Adesina revealing how Nnamdi Kanu’s assassination plot was converted to a jail sentence.

Spokesperson of IPOB, Emma Powerful who was reacting to a statement credited to Adesina during his book launch recently said Buhari’s administration understands the consequences of considering such assassination option, reports Daily Sun.

While calling the entire comments of Adesina a bluff in a statement he released to newsmen today, Powerful said, “The claim from Femi Adesina that Mohammed Buhari did Mazi Nnamdi Kanu a favour by arresting him as opposed to their assassination plans.

“The murderous government of Late Buhari understood the consequences of eliminating Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.

“Femi Adesina wrote a book thinking that the mention of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu will sell his book and that revealing their secret plans against Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, Ndigbo, IPOB, and the Biafra struggle will be to his advantage. The book has turned into toilet paper. No sane person will spend their money or time to buy that book or read it.”

Recalling the Buhari’s administration, Powerful said, “Without tangible development in Nigeria after eight years of governance, they are unarguably the most hated administration in all of Nigeria’s miserable existence.

“We are very happy that Adesina and his principal, Major General Muhammadu Buhari, retired, plan failed in eliminating Mazi Nnamdi Kanu because they tried it during the time they attacked his father’s compound that led to his mother’s and father’s deaths.

“Femi Adesina thought that if he mentioned Mazi Nnamdi Kanu in his book, Nigerians would praise him.

“In his infamous book written as the aide of the former President of Nigeria, Late Muhammadu Buhari, Femi Adesena disclosed that the murderous government of his late boss planned to assassinate Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, but his boss did Mazi Nnamdi Kanu a favour by only just arresting him.

“It’s revealing that the former aide to the former president, Femi Adesina, has exposed the devilish agenda of his principal in his book. We know that they have tried so many ways to eliminate Mazi Nnamdi Kanu without success. It is good that the government could not assassinate Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and are now confessing it.

“We assure the Nigeria government that they cannot murder Mazi Nnamdi Kanu without consequences that will shake the foundation of their one Nigerian.

“Femi Adesina, the lying machine for the terrorist sympathizer government of Late Mohammed Buhari, claimed in his book that Mazi Nnamdi Kanu was arrested and extradited to Nigeria to face trial in their court.

“To put the record straight, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu was not arrested but was kidnapped in Kenya, tortured for eight(8) days, and extraordinarily renditioned to Nigeria by the murderous government of late Mohammadu Buhari.

“Even when the Court of Appeal in Abuja discharged and acquitted Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, the lawless government of Buhari refused to obey the judgment of the court. “Moreover, the current APC government of Ahmed Tinubu has continued with the persecution and illegal detention of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.

“IPOB wants Nigeria past and present governments to understand that Mazi Nnamdi Kanu has beaten them legally in the Nigerian Courts. He has no charges against him. Mazi Kanu is being persecuted and detained extra judiciously for championing a lawful Biafra self-determination movement’s referendum.

“Those who will contemplate eliminating him directly or indirectly should be ready for a brutal war. Should they dare, we promise all collaborators and their families that they will equally be eliminated irrespective of their country of residence”, Powerful stated.
