Supporters of the Biafra movement among the
Niger Delta ex-militants have given President
Mohammadu Buhari led federal government 31-
day deadline to free the leader of the group and
Director of Radio Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, or face
the consequences.

Also, the former warlords warned security
agencies against tampering with the life of the
IPOB leader, who is detained at Kuje Prison.

Spokesperson of the concerned ex-militants,
simply identified as General Ben, warned that at
the expiration of the ultimatum, they would
resume massive abduction of expatriates as a
first step.

The spokesperson declared that Federal
Government should not underrate the activities
of the militants in the Niger Delta, no matter the
number of soldiers deployed against them.

He fumed: “The ex-militant leaders in Ebeocha
IPOB are warning the Federal Government and
are giving them 31 days to release Nnamdi
Kanu, the leader of IPOB and Director of Radio
Biafra.

“We are giving Federal Government deadline; if
they fail to release him, the country would be
vandalised. He is fighting a just cause.

Nothing should happen to him and Federal Government
should not forget what we can do,” he
threatened.
