The North has violence in their DNA – Nnamdi Kanu replies Northern Elders

Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has reacted to a remark by Ango Abdullahi, Chairman of the Northern Elders Forum, NEF, against the South East.

Abdullahi had accused people of the South East of perpetrating the most violence against Northerners in other parts of the country.

He said this during a tour of Northern communities to other parts of the country to assess the damaged caused during the EndSARS protests.

Reacting to Abdullahi’s accusation, Kanu wondered who was more terror inclined between the South East and the North.

In a statement by the spokesman of IPOB, Emma Powerful he noted that the North have violence, terrorism and killing in their DNA

He said ;

“The attention of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), ably led by our great leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, has been drawn to the unguarded and highly provocative utterance made by one Alhaji Ango Abdullahi and his tribalistic Northern Elders Forum, NEF, that the Igbo are the worst perpetrators of violence against Northerners in every part of Nigerian.

“But for our concern for the average Igbo and indeed Biafrans who have been betrayed by their so-called political leaders and socio-cultural group leaders like Ohanaeze, we wouldn’t have bothered to dignify the gibberish with a response.

“May we, therefore, ask Alhaji Ango Abdullahi and his co-travelers: Between the Igbo and Fulani jihadists, who are terror inclined? Who among the two tribes have violence, terrorism and killing without provocation in their DNA?

“Which of the two tribes habour and have sympathy for the six most dangerous terrorist groups in the world – Boko Haram, Fulani killer herdsmen, Ansaru, ISWAP, ISIS, bandits ? Are the Igbo the perpetrators of the daily carnage and pogrom committed by these vampires in the North?

“Were the Igbo behind the burning of car shops in Abuja and the looting of Igbo businesses in Lagos during the #EndSARS protests? “
