Adoke, who claimed to have fought the Nigeria civil war along with Buhari said news of Kanu’s arrest has not only restored calm and hope to the dozens of families who have lost their loved ones due to the atrocities of IPOB but also came with pride and eulogy for Nigeria’s secret police for their excellent job in ensuring the IPOB leader was apprehended abroad to face justice at home.
“Let truth be told, ever since its creation in 2014, the atrocities of the IPOB have caused more deaths, economic hardships, and infrastructural losses to the people they claim to represent than ever before.
“The resultant consequence of their inactions led the federal government of Nigeria to proscribe the group and labelled t a terrorist organization.
“Having jumped bail in 2017, Nnamdi Kanu had ample of time and opportunities to retrace his steps. Rather than do so, he outrightly militarized his loyalists and continued to incite them towards violent insurrections and killings across the South eastern Nigeria.
