  • Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), has recalled how his parents died due to trauma from a 2017 army attack on his home.

Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), has revealed how his parents, Eze Israel Okwu Kanu and Lolo Ugoeze Sally Nmeme Okwu Kanu, died due to trauma from a 2017 army attack on his home.

According to Kanu, the trauma from the attack led to their deaths five years ago.

In a statement issued by his lead counsel, Aloy Ejimakor, Kanu recalled the events of September 2017, when soldiers under Operation Python Dance invaded his residence in Afaraukwu, Abia State. Kanu escaped and fled to Europe, but his parents were severely traumatized by the incident.
