DO NOT SOLICIT MY RETURN TO BURY MY MOTHER, I DIDN'T SEND YOU THAT --- MAZI NNAMDI KANU

The leader of the Indigenous People Of Biafra, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu have reacted to news circulating the social media, that some monarchs are pleading that he should be pardoned and allowed to come and bury his deceased mother.

In his reaction on Voice Of America (VOA) Radio in Washington DC today, to the unwarranted solicitation, he said:

I did not send or beg anyone to lobby the federal government of Nigeria on my behalf, and will never do that. And even if such request is granted, I will not honour it because the cabals in Aso Rock are not to dictate things for me.

Continuing, he further said, "What I can assure you of is that my mother must be buried".

When she was alive, she told me to do everything within my power to restore Biafra. I may attend her burial or I may not, but certainly the burial must be done.

Mazi Nnamdi Kanu's Mother died on August 30th,2019 as a result of the shock she sustained from the attack in their home on September 14th, 2017. She died in a hospital in Germany where she was receiving treatment.
