Exactly One Year After Capture In Kenya, Family Says Nigerian Govt Can Prove Nothing Against Nnamdi Kanu

Kingsley ‘Kanunta’ Kanu, brother of Nnamdi Kanu, founder of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) on Wednesday asserted that the Nigerian government “has nothing against” the lead separatist.

Newsbreak recalls that the Federal Government, on June 29, 2021, announced that it has arrested and extradited Kanu to Nigeria to continue to face a terrorism trial.

Kanu disappeared from Nigeria after skipping bail in 2017 and was re-arrested last year in Kenya.

IPOB, which Kanu founded in 2014, is pressing for the secession of a part of southeast Nigeria where the majority of the population belongs to the Igbo ethnic group.
