The Monarch said he has no intention either in the immediate past or in the near future to do so adding that the young who spoke on the alleged video was none other than an impersonator.
He went on to say he did not send anyone to represent him in any meeting with Nnamdi Kanu.
The statement by chairman of the Etuboms’ Traditional Council of the Palace of the Obong of Calabar, HRH Etubom Bassey Okor Bassey Duke reads: “The attention of the Obong of Calabar-in-Council has been drawn to a video currently making the rounds on social media in which a person is seen claiming to have been sent by the Obong of Calabar to ask Nnamdi Kanu of IPOB to visit him.
“The content of this video is therefore a ridiculous insult and the Obong of Calabar-in-Council dissociates itself completely from everything to do with the person and fake message carried in the video.
“From the poor illegitimate dressing, intonation, accent and comportment, it is clear that the person is a petty impersonator with dubious intentions.
“While freedom of speech is guaranteed by the Nigerian Constitution it does not extend to endorsing the propagation of falsehood of making fraudulent claims.
“The Obong of Calabar-in-Council, therefore calls on the security agencies to live up to expectation and immediately arrest and prosecute the impersonator whose face can clearly be seen in the video.”
A 2:42 minute video on YouTube titled: BIAFRA: I’m very, very happy we are now a nation, shows Kanu addressing some supporters in a room when a man in dark glasses dressed in traditional attire said he brought greetings from Obong, who supports the Biafra cause and would like to see the IPOB leader.
According to the man, the Obong and the Calabar people wanted to see the IPOB leader.
“Tell him he was one of the people I was praying for while in prison and one of the people I would go to.
“Tell the Obong of Calabar, I will go to see him that I would be honoured to see him in person.
“I will come to see him in his Palace. Tell the Obong that. Thank you very much for coming,” Kanu replied in the video
