Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Simon Ekpa, a popular Biafra agitator and Separatist, has said that he is exonerating the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, from any actions that Biafrans will carry out.<\/p>\n

Ekpa, the Finland-based lawyer and Prime Minister of the Biafra Republic Government, in a video shared on his Twitter handle on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Reports claimed Kanu directed Ekpa to stop criticism of southeast governors.<\/p>\n

But Ekpa said the letter was fake and untrue.<\/p>\n

He says the letter is from mischief-makers who do not want Biafra liberation.<\/p>\n

He reiterated the call for the release of Kanu to ensure lasting peace in the southeast.<\/p>\n

In the video, he said, \u201cThe reason for us not taking orders from the DSS dungeon anymore is to safeguard our leader. We want our leader to be safe; we want to forgive our leader for anything that Biafrans will be doing for his own best interests.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo any actions that Biafra people will be taking in Biafra land, you don\u2019t attach Mazi Nnamdi Kanu to it. Any actions that Biafrans will be taking in Biafra land for the freedom of Biafra, freedom of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, and freedom of all prisoners of conscience, you do not bring Mazi Nnamdi Kanu to it.\u201d<\/p>\n
