You Can’t Stop Me From Entering Lagos, Nnamdi Kanu Replies Igbo Traders

The leader of the Indigenous people of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu has stated that nobody can prevent him from visiting Lagos State.

He made the statement during an interview with Authority on Monday.

Recall that Chairman of the Alaba Amalgamated Traders Association, Chief Chiemeka Ibeh on behalf of Igbo traders, warned Kanu to keep his Biafra agitation in the South East.

But Kanu, in his reaction, stated that he had the right to the Freedom of Movement, adding that no threat can make him act otherwise.

He said, “I go to anywhere I want to go. I don’t listen to threats. They motivate me rather than dampen my spirit. That thing people say I cannot do is what I love to do. When the time comes I will go to Lagos if I have to go to Lagos.”

When asked if his visit to Lagos was only a show of audacity, he simply said “I am not under obligation to tell you”, stating further that he has “friends with connections in Lagos”.
“Fani Kayode is my friend and he is in Lagos. If I try to visit him in Yoruba land, then I must see him in Lagos”, Kanu said.

Speaking on the breach of his bail conditions and possible arrest, Kanu said, “If you arrest me, Biafra will come even quicker than we anticipate. I am not afraid of being ar­rested.

“I have been there before and if need be I will also be there again. I will be very happy if they re-arrest me. If we are hoping for 90% compli­ance with the boycott of Anambra State Governor­ship election, my arrest will make the compliance 100 %.”
