Nnamdi Kanu petitions UN, U.S., others over alleged intimidation by Nigerian Army

The leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, has written a petition to the United Nations, the European Union and the Presidents of the United States, Russia and Israel over the invasion of the Southeast by soldiers.

Highlights:

  • In the petition dated September 14, signed by his lawyer, Ifeanyi Ejiofor, the IPOB leader alleged intimidation, torture, arrest, abduction and killing of the people of the region by soldiers.
  • “Unarmed civilians largely made up members of the Indigenous People of Biafra are now being tortured and murdered in cold blood on a daily basis.
  • “We have no doubt that the undisclosed reason for deploying troops in South-Eastern states by the President (Muhammadu) Buhari-led administration is to attack unarmed and defenseless members of the Indigenous People of Biafra who are merely exercising their constitutional guaranteed rights to self-determination.
  • “The modus operandi of the Operation Python Dance II presently adopted by the military deployed in the South-East offends all known rules of professional engagement even in a war zone.”
