IPOB Finally Announces Date For Burial Of Nnamdi Kanu’s Parents In Abia

The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has finally announced that the parents of its leader, Nnamdi Kanu, would be buried on February 14, 2020.

IPOB spokesperson, Emma Powerful who disclosed this in a statement on Friday, said the burial would follow the normal burial preparation, according to the custom and tradition of Afara Ukwu Umuahia community in Abia State.

The group, however, refused to disclose the security arrangements put in place for the burial in view of the return of Nnamdi Kanu.

“The burial of our leader’s parents will be 14th of February 2020.

“We are not going to disclose our security arrangements because they are much enemies who wish to destroy or destabilize every effort made for the successful burial of the father and mother of our leader

“IPOB is on ground and nothing will change our resolve to protect the environment.

“We are peaceful and will maintain it to last point. But nobody should try IPOB.”

KanyiDaily had reported that Nnamdi Kanu lost his father, Eze Israel Kanu, four months after his mother, Ugoeze Sally Kanu‘s death.

Eze Kanu was the traditional ruler of Afara Ukwu Umuahia community till his death.
