The former Aviation Minister said the order was superficial and biased as it focuses on the utterances and activities of the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu, but remains mute to those of other ethnic groups that clearly violated Nigerian laws.
He spoke to Sun, saying “If I wake up and say, I would go and blow up Aso Rock, would I be arrested, or when I march to Aso Rock fully armed?
“Why the focus on Nnamdi Kanu, what of the other Arewa youths who are committing similar or more grievous offenses? What has been done to them?
“If Kanu breaks the law, let him be punished, not when he is unarmed and just making a tstatement that his people are not being treated fairly.
“What Kanu is saying is that Igbo want to go, if you don’t agree with him, put it to plebiscite. That is how it has been done in other places.
“Scotland said it wanted to leave the United Kingdom, and they put it to a plebiscite, the majority said they didn’t want to go away.

“In America, since Donald Trump came to power, two states have expressed the desire to quit the US, has anybody killed them?
“The only thing is that when the demand becomes serious, the government will give the opportunity for the people to decide.
“What has been done to the Arewa youth who said their leaders were the ones who asked them to issue the quit notice?
“Yes, we know who is sending them to do what they are doing, the politicians are behind them and we are not deceived.
“What of those behind the anti-Igbo songs, what has the government done to them? What efforts have the security agencies made to bring them to book?”
