The secret visit according to IPOB intelligence is being facilitated by some APC politicians in the state.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIPOB will not accept any visit both secret and open, by Buhari to Biafraland while our leader, Mazi Nnamdi KANU is still in DSS custody. Our leader has to be released unconditionally before Buhari should contemplate any visit to Biafra land.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBiafrans will lock down everywhere any day he ventures to visit Biafraland until he releases our leader. He will meet empty streets in Ebonyi or any part of Biafra he chooses to visit without releasing Nnamdi Kanu.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBiafrans must be prepared to lock down our territory any day he comes here in our region. Buhari has shown that he doesn\u2019t like us. Our leader Mazi Nnamdi KANU cannot be in detention and we are welcoming Buhari in our region.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBiafrans will sit at home any day he decides to come and mock us. He will know that the few politicians telling him lies about us don\u2019t have control over the people. Should he decide to proceed with the planned visit, Ebonyi will be on lockdown,\u201d the group stated.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/nigeria\">Nigeria<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
