Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Deji Adeyanju, a socio-political activist, has criticized members of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, over their sudden interest in election.<\/p>\n

Adeyanju recounted how he was insulted after he urged IPOB\u2019s leader, Nnamdi Kanu to become interested in Nigerian politics.<\/p>\n

He recalled asking Kanu to ensure he installed all five governors in the Southeast.<\/p>\n

In a series of tweets, the Abuja-based lawyer said such a move was the first step towards the actualization of Biafra.<\/p>\n

Adeyanju said despite the insults, members of IPOB are now interested in Nigerian politics.<\/p>\n

According to Adeyanju: \u201cAfter Nnamdi Kanu was released from prison, I was the first person to secretly and openly advise him to become interested in politics and ensure he installs all the 5 Governors in the SE as that will be the first major step of actualizing Biafra.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey insulted me, saying I was an enemy paid by the Govt to destabilize Biafra.<\/p>\n

\u201cToday, IPOB folks that we all know on social media are all suddenly interested in elections. They never listen and hate criticism of any kind.\u201d<\/p>\n
