The leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, has threatened to expel members of the organization who pay bail to police, saying that paying bail is giving in to extortion.
He explained that IPOB members in Anambra State, in particular, re at high risk of being arrested due to his declaration to boycott the upcoming November 18 election in the state.
“Anybody in IPOB that gives money to the zoo police for their bail will be expelled from IPOB. The zoo police are using IPOB to make money because some people are not mentally tough enough to resist them until our dedicated legal team arrives to secure their release,” Mr. Kanu warned.
Furious at how easily IPOB members are extorted by the police, Mr. Kanu reiterated to the people that extortion will not cease until they stop giving in to the pressure they face from police.
