Nnamdi Kanu, who reacted to the Federal Government’s alleged plan to arrest him with the International Police, said he could cause trouble for Nigeria if provoked.
The leader of the IPOB, who promised to make Nigeria ungovernable if provoked, said he was a British citizen and could therefore not be subject to any Nigerian law.
He also dared the Federal Government to come for him if it could, emphasizing that the Federal Government’s bail revocation was a ploy to make the International Police stop him from travelling freely around the world to argue for Biafra’s independence. Nnamdi Kanu who, if provoked, further threatened Nigeria with trouble said in a statement;
“I am not a Nigerian citizen; therefore, your bail revocation is completely meaningless to me. My devotion to the absolute and puritanical pursuit of the total restoration of the sovereignty of the Republic of Biafra is unwavering.
“My lawyers are waiting for an Interpol red notice against my name and all hell will break loose. If the intention of Binta Nyako is to curtail my travels, thereby limiting IPOB diplomatic offensive, then let me assure Biafrans that our enemies have failed.
“Should they request Interpol intervention in this matter, I will give my lawyers here in the UK the instructions we need to launch a no-holds-barred legal assault against Nigeria. So, I am waiting for them. Europe and Interpol are not a bunch of wild beasts like Nigerian law courts and her security services. In Europe, there is a rule of law which is also binding on Interpol.
“The treasonable felony charge they levelled against me is not a crime that could be committed by merely carrying Biafran flag about and preaching secession, but one that could only be committed using guns, bombs and other weapons, which my group has never been associated with. I warn the Federal Government not to dare me because I’m capable of causing trouble for Nigeria.”
