There is a statement making the rounds to the effect that Prince Nnamdi
Kanu made certain statements that are contrary to his original stance on
national matters and are found disturbing by his admirers, supporters
and followers.
Some other versions of the rumour have it that he made the statement during his visit to Chief Femi Fani-Kayode.
While we are proud of having hosted the courageous IPOB leader when he
paid a visit to FFK as part of his "Thank you tour", we wish to state
categorically clear that Prince Nnamdi Kanu didn't make such statement.
Our investigations have revealed that that statement emanated from the
notorious APC Media Centre (a coordinated propaganda machinery of our
collective traducers).
Kanu could not in any way have made and did not make such a statement,
and nothing of that sort or anything near it was said by him or any
other person present at the meeting. If anything, our strong belief is
that the IPOB leader still holds very tightly to his struggle and the
principles behind it. He does not in any way look like a man that would
flinch in the face of intimidation or harassment. He cut the figure of a
man that is more determined now than ever to see his struggle through
to a logical conclusion.
The meeting was also held in an atmosphere of conviviality and was
characterised by mutual respect and appreciation for and to all parties
involved in the struggle to have our people emancipated from oppression
and tyranny.
We therefore cannot afford to help our common traducers divide us now.
Unfortunately, some of those who shared the wickedly false story in the
social media and other places are those who should have known better and
apply circumspection. They are those who are the most pitiable victims
of State oppression and tyranny but would neither raise a finger to join
in the struggle for emancipation but would rather put all their hands
in bids to destroy it.
At this point, we ask, whose interest are they serving?
Our traducers are master propagandists. It beats our imagination that
some people can't still spot their work when they see it and dismiss
same even on its face value.
We urge every well meaning Nigerian to kindly disregard that misleading
statement purportedly authored by Prince Kanu whenever and wherever it
is found and dismiss same for all its malice, wickedness, evil, as the
intentions of its faceless authors are divisive and ignoble. But they
have failed!
