South East Governors meet with Nnamdi Kanu

The South East Governors Forum on Wednesday met with the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu in a closed door meeting.

The news was revealed by Emmanuel Uzor, the Chief Press Secretary of the Ebonyi State Governor Dave Umahi.

He said the call by IPOB for citizens to boycott the Anambra elections could be the most important issue to discuss.

He wrote on his Facebook page:

Ndigbo must have a direction…

According to Vanguard, the governors and IPOB leader Kanu discussed general security issues plaguing the country, and the South East region specifically.

The call by the Attorney General of the Federation’s office for the Federal High Court to revoke Kanu’s bail, after he flouted his bail conditions, was also one of the issues discussed.

The meeting is a continuous process, they said.

Nnamdi Kanu had last week met with Senators from the South East, where he said IPOB will never be violent.
