Pirate radio station, Radio Biafra, is alleging that President Muhammadu Buhari has pre-occupied himself with investigating the connection between the Indigenous People Of Biafra, IPOB, secessionist group and Niger-Delta militants rather than ordering the release of its detained director – Nnamdi Kanu, and call for a dialogue on how to conduct a Referendum.
The secessionist group also claimed that confidants of the President like Governor Nasir El-Rufai of Kaduna State have hired no fewer than 2000 persons who, it alleged, were paid heavily “to join the IPOB Global Peaceful Protest and turn it into a violent protest, because they have seen that the Biafran protesters are not going to stop anytime soon as against what some people earlier anticipated.”
These allegations were made by IPOB in a news item published on its Radio Biafra website on Tuesday, where it claimed that Kanu “was arrested, secretly charged to a magistrate court, granted bail and he met his bail conditions.”
The news item reads in part, “Remember that these protests have been going on in over 88 countries around the world, the protesters are unarmed and they have not caused any injury to anyone, instead the Nigerian soldiers have killed, intimidated and harassed them.
“El Rufai and his cohorts have also paid billions of naira to some media houses to carry out psychological terrorism against the Biafrans.
“These media houses are on standby, waiting for when the 2000 people Buhari’s lackeys have recruited to start causing mayhem, then they’ll unleash media blitz on Biafrans.”
