Nnamdi Kanu Disassociate Self From MEND's Negotiations

The Kuje Prisoner, Leader of IPOB and Director of Radio Biafra and Television, Nnamdi Kanu has finally indicated Interest negotiating with the federal Government on the terms of his release. Kanu was on October 14, 2015, arrested by security operatives upon his arrival to Nigeria from United Kingdom. He has been in person since January 20.

Nnamdi Kanu alongside David Nwawusi and Benjamin Madubugwu are answering to six-count treason charge.

Amidst the protest by IPOB for his release he has made it clear through his lawyer,Ifeanyi Ejiofor that he has no relationship with the activities of MEND and maintains he doesn't have anything to do with MEND  negotiating for his release and should F.G needs to talk they knew where they kept him.Ifeanyi Ejiofor has this to say.

"In the past few days, the media was awash with news on negotiation going on between the Federal Government and the members of MEND, where our client’s name (Nna-mdi Kanu) conspi-cuously featured.

It is on that note that we wish to inform the general public that Nnamdi Kanu has no connection, contact, ties or any form of relationship with the members of MEND.

As such, MEND has no implied, direct or express authority of Nnamdi Kanu to represent him or IPOB in any purported negotiation, going on between MEND and the Federal Govern-ment. “The general public is accordingly advised to ignore, discountenance and disregard the falsehood being peddled by MEND. Nnamdi Kanu does not know them!

However, Nnamdi Kanu is not averse to political solution, in resolving his present politically orchestrated ordeal. Kanu welcomes genuine political solution to this case.

The FG does not need to sponsor their repre-sentatives to travel to far away Bayelsa State or the creeks of Niger Delta region, in order to reach Nnamdi Kanu. They know where they kept him, which is easily accessible to them."
