The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), has disclosed that its leader, Nnamdi Kanu and other members may storm New York, venue of the 73rd session of the United Nations General Assembly, if as they termed it, “the right conditions were put in place.”
The group said it is making adequate preparations for Kanu’s proposed confidential trip to Washington DC, saying that it would culminate in the diplomatic strangulation of Nigeria.
As quoted by Daily Sun, IPOB said: “Regarding the United Nations General Assembly meeting in New York, we have both direct and indirect representations for the forthcoming events in the US.
“Our people are on the ground. If the right conditions which we are waiting for are put in place, our leader will personally lead our people; otherwise it would be on a later date which would be duly announced.
“The proposed confidential US trip by our leader to Washington DC is something we have been preparing for since June of this year.
“For us, that will be the culmination of our diplomatic offensive which is not happening in the Far East with our leader’s ongoing visit to Japan.
“Our trip to the United States is something the leadership of our movement is looking forward to with relish.
“Our approach will be better termed as a form of diplomatic strangulation of Nigeria.
“Regardless of the vast resources available to the Nigerian Government, one thing is certain, IPOB will at the end, render Nigeria diplomatically irrelevant,” IPOB said.
