Biafra political activist and leader of the outlawed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu has claimed that there is a “propaganda to demonize the IPOB as the triggers of the #EndSARS protests”.
Kanu via his known Twitter handle on Thursday, countered that notion, stating that “the protest is a spontaneous and justifiable reaction by Nigerian youths who have had enough of a Nigeria that thrives on injustice”.
I’ve noted the propaganda to demonize the IPOB/me as the triggers of the #EndSARS protest. Well, hear this: The protest is a spontaneous & justifiable reaction by #NigerianYouths who have had enough of a #Nigeria that thrives on INJUSTICE. But if you insist it’s #IPOB, so be it

Afriupdate had earlier reported that Aloy Ejimakor the Special Counsel to Biafra political activist, Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the outlawed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), has seemingly asserted that the outspoken leader of the separatist organization has been “over-vindicated”, following the #ENDSARS protests in Nigeria.
As seen below, Ejimakor aired his opinion via his known Twitter handle on Wednesday.
It’s hard to say this but has @MaziNnamdiKanu not been vindicated? Even over-vindicated!#LekkiMassacre & still counting!
Solution: Beyond #EndSARS, you must also END that LIE you all know is the ROOT of these EVILS. If you don’t, we die here!
