Nnamdi Kanu Reacts As 602 Boko Haram Members Join The Nigerian Army

The leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, has reacted to the recent release of alleged “repentant” Boko Haram members, who were recruited into the Nigerian Army.

Recall we reported that the military commanders on Saturday, July 18, formally recruited 602 repentant Boko Haram fighters into the army, two days after they allegedly took an oath of allegiance to the Federal Republic of Nigeria in Maiduguri.

They were given the oath before an 11-member quasi-judicial panel, after which they became fully integrated into the Nigerian military.

Reacting to the development in his Sunday broadcast on Radio Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu wondered what was wrong with the black man's reasoning. 

Here's what he said; 

“You arrested Boko haram, jailed them, released them and allow them to rejoin the army and take them into battle to fight Boko haram, do you see how sick Nigeria is? 

“God created human beings with brain to reason, but I kept wondering and asking God what’s wrong with a black man’s sense of reasoning. Black people, there is something fundamentally wrong with the way we reason.

“When Buhari was alive they said he is a hard man, he is a general, but look at seven children dying in his village, doesn’t that tell you that Buhari is no more?  

“They thought that the loss of Biafra between 67 and 70 means that they can go on and take over Biafra, but there is something they don’t know about Biafra, God may punish us but will never allow you to take over Biafraland.

“If you want your name to be heard, you must say something about IPOB, that’s how powerful and formidable we are.”
