Founder of the Niger Delta Peoples Volunteer Force, Mujahid Asari-Dokubo, has attacked leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, saying Kanu has derailed the Biafran struggle.
Her maintained that the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) leader was not in any struggle for the restoration of Biafra.
According to Dokubo, “It gives me regret that in my life I ever associated with a person called Nnamdi Kanu. That when he was in crisis, I came out to defend him. In fact, my greatest regret is associating with Nnamdi Kanu. I can’t make peace with somebody like him. It’s a foreclosed issue because he has nothing to offer other than to derail our struggle.”
He added that with Nnamdi Kanu, there was no hope for Biafra.
“Those of us who get close to him know he’s not fighting for any Biafra. Nnamdi Kanu is just one individual in Biafra, so, we shouldn’t make him important, he’s not. He’s just like everyone one of us.
“He’s not in any struggle. Whatever spell he has cast on the Igbo will be removed very soon and their eyes will open.
When he was in trouble, all of us came out to defend him because an injury to one is an injury to all. We risked our lives by speaking in support of him, for him to be released from prison and for him not to be killed.
“Now, he sees those of us who fought on his behalf for his freedom as his followers. Some of us regret ever lending our voice. We would have left him to rot in jail because he’s caused more harm to Biafra struggle than anyone else.”
