The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has said that Simon Ekpa, the Finland-based self-proclaimed disciple of Nnamdi Kanu and his (Ekpa) supporters are not followers of the detained IPOB leader. IPOB said this in a statement issued by its Media and Publicity Secretary, Emma Powerful on Tuesday as its reaction to a statement made by Kanu’s special counsel, Barrister Aloy Ejimakor, on Arise Television on Saturday.
‘Simon Ekpa, His Supporters Are Not Nnamdi Kanu’s Followers,’ IPOB Tackles Ejimakor Over Comment, Calls Lawyer Government MoleIPOB said this in a statement issued by its Media and Publicity Secretary, Emma Powerful on Tuesday as its reaction to a statement made by Kanu’s special counsel, Barrister Aloy Ejimakor, on Arise Television on Saturday.
"Nnamdi Kanu is the supreme leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra. There are no two supreme leaders and at this moment, there is no deputy leader."Standing on that, anybody that acts in the name of IPOB whether the person acted for good or bad or for the ugly is often attributed to the head of the organisation and the fish rots from the head.
“The only remote connection is that he, Simon Ekpa, was talking about Biafra on his own platform, which Nnamdi Kanu saw in a positive light having supported anyone or group genuinely agitating for Biafra whether the persons are IPOB members or not. “Simon Ekpa's criminal supporters who carry out violent enforcement of the infamous sit-at-homes are neither working for Mazi Nnamdi nor for IPOB.
