Buhari Pays People To Make Biafra Protests Bloody – IPOB

The Indigenous People Of Biafra (IPOB) has accused President Muhammadu Buhari of hiring two thousand people to make their protest bloody. Daily Post reports that the IPOB said that friends of Buhari like Governor Nasir El-Rufai of Kaduna state have hired no less than 2000 people who, it supposed, were paid heavily “to join the IPOB Global Peaceful Protest and turn it into a violent protest, because they have seen that the Biafran protesters are not going to stop anytime soon as against what some people earlier anticipated.” These claims were made by the group in a news item published on its website, where it claimed that Kanu “was arrested, secretly charged to a magistrate court, granted bail and he met his bail conditions.” It reads in part: “Remember that these protests have been going on in over 88 countries around the world, the protesters are unarmed and they have not caused any injury to anyone, instead the Nigerian soldiers have killed, intimidated and harassed them. “El Rufai and his cohorts have also paid billions of naira to some media houses to carry out psychological terrorism against the Biafrans. “These media houses are on standby, waiting for when the 2000 people Buhari’s lackeys have recruited to start causing mayhem, then they’ll unleash media blitz on Biafrans.” President Buhari while reacting to the upsurge of the protests condemned the unrest, noting that Nigeria to have witnessed a lot of internal strife and a civil war after independence and has remained united was a proof of the people’s resolve to remain a country. Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the secessionist movement, was arrested by the DSS in Lagos after he had flown from the UK, where he lives, earlier in October.
