Leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu has been ridiculed by Asari Dokubo, a former Niger Delta militant.
Dokubo has mocked Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, over his re-arrest by the Federal Government.
Recall that Dokubo had vowed to destroy Kanu, who he described as ‘evil’ and also accused him of defrauding Biafrans.
In his latest video, the ex-militant warlord claimed that the IPOB leader receives defence funds without giving account of his spending.
He also alleged that Kanu demanded payment from all Biafrans on a monthly basis to be part of the Biafra nation when actualized.
The fall out between the former Niger Delta warlord and Kanu was due to ideological differences on the push for the actualization of Biafra.
Following their fall out, Dokubo had created the Biafra Customary Government (BCG).
Meanwhile, more facts have emerged on how Leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, was arrested.
It was gathered the he was lured to a location in an African country with a promise of cash donation in millions of dollars.
The IPOB leader, who was facing charges bordering on treasonable felony following his campaign for the secession of Republic of Biafra, had jumped bail in 2017 after a military action, code-named “Operation Python Dance”, targeted his family house in Abia state.
The Nigerian government has not named the country where Kanu was arrested, with Abubakar Malami, the attorney-general of the federation, just saying he was “intercepted” and extradited to Nigeria.
However, there were report that the “interception” took place in Ethiopia, where it said Kanu had been living for a while.
One of the reports specifically named Addis Ababa, the capital city of Ethiopia, as the location.
It was learnt that Kanu was tracked through some members of IPOB who were recently arrested following a massive military operation in the south-east.
The security agencies worked through the links to give the IPOB leader the impression that he was going to be given some “millions of dollars” in cash donations to the organisation.
He was said to have decided to collect the money himself “because of the huge amount involved”.
Kanu even kept his associates in the dark about his mission, according to the security sources who said the top hierarchy did not know his whereabouts on the day he was arrested.
He had been having a crisis of confidence with some of his lieutenants over financial matters.
On arriving at the location where he was to collect the ‘donation’, he was arrested by that country’s security agencies and Interpol, and deported to Nigeria, the source said.
This has brought an end to the long-running episode since he left Nigeria while on bail.
His trial is expected to resume on July 26.
