Kanunta, brother to Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has criticised Southeast politicians following freedom fighter, Sunday Igboho’s petition for Yoruba Nation submitted to the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, UK, Keir Starmer.
He said Igboho submitted the petition for the Yoruba Nation to the UK Prime Minister without any threat.
Kanunta lamented that while Igboho is pushing for Yoruba Nation, Southeast politicians are busy kidnapping “Biafran youths” in collaboration with the Nigerian Army and the Department of State Services, DSS.
Posting on X, he wrote: “Sunday Igboho Submits Petition To UK Prime Minister To Consider ‘Yoruba Nation’ Agitation without any threat.
“But South East politicians are busy kidnapping “Biafran youths” in collaboration with @HQNigerianArmy and @OfficialDSSNG for demanding same. #FreeMaziNnamdiKanuNow.”
Igboho had submitted the petition to Starmer to consider the creation of Yoruba nation.
Igboho was said to have submitted the petition on behalf of Prof Adebanji Akintoye, the leader of the Yoruba Nation movement.
The movement is seeking the immediate intervention of the UK prime minister and his government in their agitation to set up a country that will be predominantly owned by the Yorubas.
