Some Niger Delta militant groups have reportedly declared their support for the Leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB),  Nnamdi Kanu, over his decision to boycott the forthcoming governorship election in Anambra.

The groups, Concerned Militant Leaders (CML), Niger Delta People Democratic Front (NDPDF) and Rainbow Marabas Squad (RMS) said they are distraught over the May 30, 2016 massacre, when soldiers allegedly killed harmless and innocent IPOB members.

Leaders of the groups, General Ben (CML), General Playboy (NDPDF) and General Aneaja (RMS), in a statement published online after their meeting in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, demanded justice for the victims of the May 30, 2016,  Biafra Day celebration killings.

Convener of the meeting, General Ben, stated: “Federal Government should address the injustice meted out to innocent and harmless IPOB members, while celebrating Biafra Day.  The election in Anambra State should not hold and will not hold.  That injustice must first be addressed before any election will take place.

“Southern political leaders, who are romancing with Federal Government to truncate and jeopardize Biafra struggle because of the selfish aggrandizement, will live to regret their actions because, we will not forget them.

“Any attempt by Federal Government to take us for granted, should be resisted.  We advise Anambrarians to boycott that election. Any person that flouts our order does that at his or her peril.  Nobody is our target, but don’t make yourself our target”, the groups warned.
