The leader of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB),
Nnamdi Kanu has received an award from the Igbo
Youths Movement in Enugu state.

In a statement signed by the spokesperson for the
IPOB, Powerful Emma, the award – an award of
honour – was given to Kanu as a great liberator of the
Igbo people.

Emma said the award ceremony which took place at
the Nike Hotel in Enugu is a proof that Kanu has
remained “a man of the masses even while
incarcerated” .

Emma said: “Prince Nnamdi Kanu received the award
as a great liberator of our days and as the man who
destroyed the falsehood in Nigeria with the truth
without a metallic bullets and bombs, his
determination, resoluteness and truthfulness towards
the liberation of his people accorded him the honour
and respect among the youths across the world.”

The IPOB spokesperson also said that the group’s
members worldwide commend the leadership and
members of the Igbo Youth movement for their
decision.

“IPOB family members worldwide under Mazi Kanu
promise to restore Biafra through a peaceful means
because it is a divine project from Chukwuokike
Abiama (God Almighty) which no human being can
stop. The killing, torture, intimidation and arrest of
Biafrans cannot stop our resolve towards the
restoration of Gods projects,” Emma said.
