As Anambra elections draw near, former Governor of Abia State, Orji Uzor Kalu has warned the leader of the Indigenous people of Biafra , Nnamdi Kanu, to tread the path of his agitation with extreme caution over his order for Anambra indigenes to boycott the state gubernatorial election.
He warned it was unconstitutional and could snowball into real treason trial for that would amount to nothing but running a parallel government which is tantamount to high treason.
He berated Kanu for the decision and warned him of the grave dangers inherent in what he described a suicide mission.
Recall the IPOB leader has ordered there would be no election henceforth in Igboland unless the Federal Government announces a date for a referendum but the former Abia Governor such move was against the constitution which is a treasonable felony and the penalty for high treason , he said , is known to one and all.
Speaking further,the former Abia Governor said in as much as Kanu and his co-travelers have the right to agitate for Biafra but have no right to go against the constitution of Nigeria by ordering a total boycott of elections in Igboland.
He said: “It will not be fair for IPOB to say that, it is unconstitutional. They have the right to agitate for Biafra, but have no right of disrupting people’s process of registration or electing their leaders.
“IPOB people have every right to agitate, after all, we have free speech in the country, everybody has right to agitate for what he feels is right for him, but that should follow due process or would be interpreted otherwise which carries a stiff penalty, he warned.
“You know, I went to prison to see Nnamdi Kanu when he was there and I spoke with him. I also almost at the same time visited his parents at their Afara Ukwu, Umuahia country home and I also spoke with them.
“That does not mean I’m in support of what he is doing as some people many tend to believe. At the same time, I’m not against his agitation, he has that right, but like I said earlier, it must follow due process.
“I wish they will understand where the world is going; none of the world powers supports the division of Nigeria.
“What I think we should do as a people is to come forcefully and demand for our rights, right of being president of this country, right of having equality, right of social justice and right of being treated with the same law; these are what we should be asking for.”
