Why we don’t want election in Anambra – IPOB

Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, said it is the desire of the people of Eastern Nigeria and IPOB members that the Anambra election should be boycotted, stressing that it was not the making of their leader, Nnamdi Kanu, to declare that there won’t be election in Anambra State in November.

Spokesman of the organisation, Emma Powerful, in a statement made available to newsmen explained that Kanu is not against Christians and their belief in Christ Jesus because he too is a Christian and would not blaspheme, noting that the confusion is a creation of the DSS and some politicians.

The statement reads as follows: “We the members of the indigenous people of Biafra (IPOB) under the leadership of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu have observed with great dismay over the purported plan by the DSS and some politicians to cause misunderstanding and confusion between the IPOB leader and Christians in Biafraland.

“Kanu has never challenged the authority of God Almighty who created heaven and earth or Jesus Christ the son of God even the spirit.

It is very pathetic that the enemies of Biafra, IPOB and Kanu will use his name on Facebook and other social media platforms to cause disunity among the people of God and with Christian faith.

“Nnamdi Kanu is a Christian and cannot blaspheme God Almighty and his son Jesus Christ, those using his name as savior, messiah and Jesus is misinformed and uneducated because he never asked them to do so.

“Since the announcement for the election boycott in Anambra State, the Federal Government and their agent the DSS mapped out strategies and huge amount of money destroy and tarnish the image of Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB in general.

Those with this stupid story on social media platforms should retrace their steps because they will fail.

“The boycott of election in Anambra State come November this year was not the making of Maxi Nnamdi Kanu rather the wish of eastern Nigeria and IPOB members who visited him in his home town, Umuahia, where the people told him that they don’t need election again in Biafraland and they are ready to boycott election because since the creation of Nigeria they benefited nothing except killing, riots and humiliation from our politicians.

“Nnamdi has warned everybody to stop using his name or comparing him with God Almighty and nobody can prove that he wants people to compare him with Jesus Christ either through the video or voice call.

If you have shown it. it is dangerous to compare him with God Almighty or Jesus Christ. It is the work of enemies planted within us by DSS and some politicians.

Those involved in this ridiculous scandal and deformation of character will fail without delay and God Almighty Chukwu Okike Abiama must deal with them,’’ the statement pointed out.
