The embattled leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra,
IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu on Wednesday said he is fighting for freedom and does not
want anybody to die.
Kanu made the assertion while condemning the killing of
soldiers in the Aba area of Abia State during the sit-at-home on May 30.
Some unknown gunmen had attacked a military checkpoint at
Obikabia junction, killed five soldiers, and burned two patrol vans during the
sit-at-home order.
Reacting, the IPOB leader said all efforts to create widows
are condemned in the Southeast.
Speaking at the Abuja Federal High Court, Kanu said: “Some
of these soldiers are our people and their families are now in mourning. All
the making of young widows is condemned in its entirety.
“I don’t want anybody to die, we are fighting for freedom;
we want people to be free. We have suffered a lot in Africa, from slavery in
Arabia to Europe and America. I think we should focus our time to ensure that
this continent stands up to what God promised.”
