Nnamdi Kanu is deceiving Ndigbo, says Okorocha

Rochas Okorocha, Imo State Governor, on Monday, warned that the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, is deceiving Ndigbo with the promise of the actualisation of Biafra.

The Imo governor said that any form of war now will cost the Igbo N3 trillion both in properties and assets.

Okorocha, who spoke while giving staff of office and a certificate of recognition to traditional rulers, lamented that traditional rulers have kept mute while the cloud is gathering over the activities of Biafra agitators.

According to him, on IPOB, the cloud is gathering, nobody is talking, even our traditional rulers, pastors, and leaders; this is bad for our people. If you remember vividly that a few years ago, during the civil war, it was a similar story. That was how it all started.

At that time, we believed that the Ohafia warriors would be able to fight and disperse the North.

He continued, Now we are being deceived that IPOB will drive away Nigeria and give us Biafra.

Even our pastors, men of God and some leaders in the rural areas, nobody is speaking out against this action and the song of war is coming gradually like a desert encroachment.

We fought the war, and it was believed that the Igbos would learn from it, but they still went ahead and developed the resources of other regions.

5 million Igbo are living outside the shores of the Igbo region. Any form of war will cause the Igbos to lose over 3 trillion naira in properties and assets. No sane person will spread the message of division and war because it does not benefit the ndigbo in any way.

I urge you traditional rulers to speak against it and educate your people on the true state of things. Igbo need to build a bridge of unity across the nation.
