Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Former militant leader, Asari Dokubo has threatened to kill Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB.<\/p>\n

Dokubo threatened to kill Kanu inside the courtroom with his bare hands.<\/p>\n

The former leader of the defunct Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger-Delta issued the threat while reacting to reports that some IPOB members had beaten him up.<\/p>\n

Dismissing such claims, Dokubo said the day such happens, he will practically go to court and eliminate the IPOB leader personally.<\/p>\n

In a video shared on his Facebook page, Dokubo described such claims as falsehood.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou can think o, You can talk, but the day you attempt all these your lies that you are lying, I will practically go and kill Nnamdi Kanu even in the court, even with Nigerian Military and all the Nigerian security agencies around.<\/p>\n

\u201cI will not send anybody, I will practically go there and kill him with my own hands,\u201d he threatened.<\/p>\n

The Niger Delta warlord and Kanu have experienced a frosty relationship over the years.<\/p>\n

Kanu is facing charges bordering on terrorism before Justice Binta Nyako-led Federal High Court, Abuja.<\/p>\n
