Asari Dokubo vs Nnamdi Kanu-Igbo Mandate Congress Caution Against Arrests

 

Igbo Mandate Congress IMC , a body mandated to shepherd Ndigbo into greatness in Africa , and silently fulfilling its mandate since 2014,, wishes to warn  all Igbo Organizations to act circumspectly while meddling in the feud between the leader of Niger Delta Volunteer Force NDVF Mujahdeen Asari Dokubo and the leader of Indigenous Peoples of Biafra, IPOB, Mazi Nnnamdi Kanu.

 

Igbo Mandate Congress is saddened by the advice of Asari Dokubo to President Bola Tinubu that Nnamdi Kanu should not be released.

 

IMC is also saddened by the flurry of non-circumspect responses from numerous Igbo groups condemning Asari Dokubo and subsequently calling for his arrest.

 

Igbo Mandate Congress condemns the penchant with which Igbo groups’ calls for the arrest of anybody who at certain times does not agree with their opinions.
