The family of the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, has criticised those accusing human rights activist Omoyele Sowore of duplicity.

Kanu’s younger brother, Prince Emmanuel Kanu, and his lawyer, Barrister. Aloy Ejimakor were arrested during Monday’s protest in Abuja.

The above has sparked speculations, with many accusing Sowore of being involved in the arrests.

Speaking on behalf of the Kanu family, Kanunta Kanu called the accusations “mischievously incorrect.”

According to him, those behind the allegations are political elites from the southeast sponsoring false narratives against Sowore out of shame that “a non-Igbo had the courage to do what they could not.”

“Those pointing accusing fingers at Sowore should stop it. Saying that he sold out Barrister Aloy Ejimakor and Prince Emmanuel Kanu is incorrect.

“He did what he was supposed to do by mobilising Nigerians to protest against injustice. Some Nigerians and Igbo politicians are peddling this lie because they are ashamed that Sowore did what they failed to do,” Kanunta Kau said.
