The leader of the Indigenous People of
Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, has threatened to expel members of the
organization who pay bail to police, saying that paying bail is giving
in to extortion.
He explained that IPOB members in Anambra State
in particular are at high risk of being arrested due to his declaration
to boycott the upcoming November 18 election in the state.
“Anybody
in IPOB that gives money to the zoo police for their bail will be
expelled from IPOB. The zoo police are using IPOB to make money because
some people are not mentally tough enough to resist them until our
dedicated legal team arrives to secure their release,” Mr. Kanu warned.
Furious
at how easily IPOB members are extorted by the police, Mr. Kanu
reiterated to the people that extortion will not cease until they stop
giving in to the pressure they face from police.
“The more we
give these Hausa-Fulani illiterate, primitive parasites wearing zoo
police uniform money, the more they keep raiding our homes to abduct us
because they know some of us will pay.
“It is not the duty of
IPOB family members to sustain illiterate, hungry and poorly paid zoo
policemen. We [IPOB] are agitating for our freedom so there is no way we
can be handing out our hard earned money to these Northern parasites
and criminals in police uniforms like we committed any crime,” he said.
Mr.
Kanu explained that IPOB has a legal team with excellent expertise,
whose responsibility is to facilitate the release of arrested IPOB
members wherever they are in Nigeria.
Describing the legal team,
he said they are dedicated and work around the clock to ensure IPOB
detainees are released regardless of where they are arrested and
detained. He comforted IPOB members saying any arrested IPOB members are
usually released within 48 hours irrespective of where they were
arrested or taken for detention.
Mr. Kanu urged IPOB members to
remain steadfast and unshaken, especially when the government are using
all available means to jeopardize their agitation for Biafran secession.
“The
Nigeria Police Force is a criminal organization, run by criminals for
the benefit of Northern Arewa criminals. All members and supporters
should remain fearless before her enemy, Nigeria, even with guns pointed
at them,” he said.
