IPOB : Anglican Church tackles Nigerian govt over Nnamdi Kanu, parent

The Church decried the inability of the Nigerian government to come out in clear terms to explain what happened to Eze Israel Kanu, his wife, and their son, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.Rising from the 9th Synod of the Diocese of Umuahia, Province of Aba, held at St. Luke’s Church, Amakama, Olokoro, Umuahia Council area of Abia State, the Church also rejected the decision of President Muhammadu Buhari to run for a second term in 2019, and advised him to jettison the idea.The Aba province of the Anglican Church, weekend, asked the Federal Government to tell Nigerians the whereabouts of Eze Israel Kanu, father of the leader of Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu, his wife, Sally and the IPOB leader himself.The Church further tasked Buhari “as the chief security officer of the nation to as a matter of urgency and for the unity of the country correct the lopsided appointments in Federal positions”.A communiqué issued by the Synod, “strongly frowned at the state of insecurity in the nation, particularly the inability of the government to clearly state what happened to HRH Eze Sir I. O. Kanu, his wife, Ugoeze Lady Sally Kanu and the son, Mr. Nnamdi Kanu, all of Isiama Afaraukwu, concerning their present whereabouts, after the soldiers illegally invaded their home in the name of Operation Python Dance 11. The synod therefore called on the government to clearly state what happened to them.”The communique condemned the violent activities of the herdsmen which it said “has led to pillage and destruction of villages and communities as well as dastardly massacre of innocent residents by the marauding herdsmen”, even as it condemned the “killing of the two Reverend Fathers in Benue State. There has been national outcry against the herdsmen and calls for Federal Government to declare them as terrorists; regrettably Government has continued to foot drag. The decision of the President to run for a second tenure should be reconsidered and the synod called on him to resign honourably.”The communiqué also frowned at the attitude of elected people, including Governors and lawmakers at all levels “on their failure for not coming to the grassroots to inform the electorate of the position and situation of things in the country.”

The embattled separatist according to one of his brothers, Prince Kanu Meme, has asked his disciples to trust and comply with directives from the Directorate of State (DOS). Boasting his belief in the separatist movement’s administrative structure, Kanu said “I’m DOS and DOS is me”.  Naija News understands that the DOS, headed by diaspora-based Chika Edoziem has been contending with authority issues since Kanu’s arrest in Kenya in June 2021.
