"Anambra Election Will Hold If Only..." - Nnamdi Kanu

“Anambra governorship election will not hold if Nigeria is not restructured before October 1, 2017”, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu said on Monday.


Kanu reportedly said this at an event in Enugu where he received awards from three Igbo groups, including the Eastern Consultative Assembly and the Igbo Students’ Association.

However, the IPOB leader when confronted by newsmen angrily said that unless the Federal Government restructures the country before October 2017, the world would be shocked with the fate that would befall the scheduled Anambra election.

According to Kanu as quoted by ‘Daily Post’ “There will be no election in Anambra State come November 2017 and going forward there won’t be any election until they give me date for a referendum.

“They know what to do; convene a meeting, I will send my rep; give us a date for referendum, that is the only way. 

“In which part of this earth have you ever found a measure of self-determination to be equated to war except in Nigeria because the political leaders do not understand the difference between self determination and war? 

“Self-determination does not mean hate speech; the status quo can no longer remain. Like my brother Evangelist Eliot Ugochukwu-Uko said, if on or before October 1 nothing happens in terms of substantial restructuring, then there won’t be any election; the people will support us.”
