Asari Dokubo comes out strong for Nnamdi Kanu and Biafra

At last Mujahid Asari Do­kubo, Leader of Niger Delta Volunteer Peoples Force, who had remained silent over the illegal detention of Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has come out very strong in his support.

Dokubo called on the Nigerian Government to release the leader of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Mr. Nnamdi Kanu, who has been detained since October 2015.

Dakubo says Kanu has done nothing wrong and should be released and allowed to continue working towards the restoration of Biafra.

“Kanu did not commit any crime by calling for self-determination and he should be freed.

“It is never a crime to call for self-determination, thus, he should be freed. Biafrans have to put away their differences and make sure he comes out. When I was in detention, Igbo came together to bring me out. Nnamdi has done tremen­dously well and has shown resoluteness in the Biafra struggle. Our goal is our in­dependence and the good of our people.

“IPOB should extend their campaign to every re­gion in Biafraland and not just Igboland. The Biafra gospel should be preached everywhere and people should be told why they should fearlessly join in this movement.”

He lauded IPOB and Kanu for coming this far in their struggle.

“It is our collective responsibilities that will make Biafra restoration a success.

“The Biafra struggle is for everyone and no one can do it all alone, thus, ev­eryone should do away with differences and come together to make sure Kanu is freed and Biafra is restored. Leadership should not be our interest now; everyone should focus on our goal, which is the restoration of the sovereign state of Bi­afra.

“Any Biafran who wants to deny the fact that Kanu catalysed this quest for Bi­afra independence is lying to himself; it is an obvious truth.

“This is not time to nurse grudges against one another so that our enemies will not take advantage of it and then use it against us.

“ I urge every Biafran to be strong and also call for the release of our brother, Kanu,” he affirmed.
