IPOB: Eastern Security Network to operate without the support of Southeast governors - Nnamdi Kanu

On Thursday, Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, claimed that his Eastern Security Network, ESN, will operate without the support of Southeast governors.

 

Kanu said that ESN was about citizens, not Southeast governors or politicians.

 

The leader of the IPOB made the statements when ignoring the Southeast governors who had distanced themselves from the security outfit.

 

Kanu stated that the role of the governors was unrelated to the activity of the outfit.

 

He spoke via IPOB Publicity Secretary Emma Powerful.

 

Statement by Powerful reads

“Now that the southeast govs have distanced themselves from the eastern security network, how can it work successfully without their support?

 

“We never expected the governors to support Eastern Security Network. The governors are part of our problem because of their selfish interests. They are the ones benefitting under the current one Nigeria slavery.

 

“But the truth remains that their dissociation from the security outfit is of no significance or consequence. ESN is the people’s movement. It doesn’t revolve around any governor or misguided political criminal masquerading as an elite.

 

"ESN is tremendous and can run efficiently without any Governor's interference. Without the assistance of the governors in our region, security equipment will prosper. We can't believe them, I don't think. IPOB is the world's greatest mass movement.

 

"What will allow any healthy mindset to expect, even with the aid of their Sahel masters, that a group of criminals numbering eleven could halt a global phenomenon?"
