A younger brother to Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous
Peoples of Biafra, Kanunta, has described the fire incident which claimed the
lives of over 90 people as an act of terrorism.
Kanunta charged the Department of State Services, DSS,
Nigerian Army, and the Police to learn from IPOB and prohibit terrorists,
disguising as tanker drivers from the North.
Late Tuesday night, a tanker transporting petrol lost
control and exploded, causing widespread destruction in Jigawa State.
The blast left the community in shock, mourning the loss of
lives and dealing with the aftermath of one of the worst accidents in the
region.
The Police Spokesperson in Jigawa, Mr Shi’isu Adam,
confirmed that the tanker driver was en route from Kano to Nguru in Yobe State
when the accident happened near Khadija University in Majiya Town.
Adam explained that the tanker driver lost control of the
vehicle at around 11:30pm, resulting in a fatal explosion that engulfed many
people at the scene.
Reacting, Kanunta posted on X: “Tanker fire is an act of
terrorism.
“@HQNigerianArmy @PoliceNG and @OfficialDSSNG learn from
#IPOB and prohibit all these terrorist tanker drivers from the north, who are
on a suicidal mission from entering Southwest during the day, just to reduce
casualties when they attack.”
