Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has been likened to Boko Haram’s late founder, Mohammed Yusuf.
A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Adamu Garba also likened Kanu’s alleged disciple, Simon Ekpa to the late Boko Haram leader, Abubakar Shekau.According to Ekpa: “As Nnamdi Kanu of IPOB is like Mohammed Yusuf of Boko Haram, so is Simon Ekpa of IPOB, who is like Abubakar Shekau of Boko Haram.“As a patriotic duty, we should unite & deplatform Ekpa.”
Late last year, Ekpa was accused of attempting to destroy the Southeast by issuing sit-at-home orders.To this end, the Ohanaeze Ndigbo socio-political organization called for Ekpa’s arrest.
