The leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, has called on the European Union (EU) and the United States (US) to conduct an impartial investigation into state-sponsored insecurity in Southeast Nigeria.

According to his Special Counsel, Aloy Ejimakor, Kanu made the call during a meeting with his legal team to address the Nigerian government’s alleged attempts to manipulate public opinion ahead of his trial on April 29, 2025.

Kanu highlighted concerns over deliberate efforts to falsely link IPOB members to fabricated raids in Imo and Anambra States, describing these as state-sponsored tactics to deflect attention from global campaigns for his release.

As Ejimakor stated, “Onyendu MNK highlighted concerns over deliberate efforts to falsely link the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, to fabricated raids in Imo and Anambra, describing these as state-sponsored tactics to deflect attention from global campaigns for his release.”

In response, Kanu has instructed his lawyers to formally engage the United States and the European Union to conduct an impartial investigation into the wave of state-sponsored insecurity in Southeast Nigeria.

Ejimakor added, “We remain committed to truth and justice. #FreeNnamdiKanu.” This development comes as IPOB described reports claiming that the Finnish government will extradite self-acclaimed Prime Minister of Biafra, Simon Ekpa, to Nigeria to face terrorism charges as a manipulation ahead of Kanu’s trial.
