Biafra: Nigeria’s Unity is negotiable, Chidoka criticises Buhari over IPOB

Chidoka faults President Buhari over Nigeria’s Unity and IPOB.

A governorship candidate of the United Peoples Party, UPP, Chief Osita Chidoka has condemned President Muhammadu Buhari for sending soldiers to the residence of Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB.

Chidoka also criticised President Buhari’s statement that Nigeria’s unity was not negotiable, maintaining that “the unity of Nigeria is negotiable and was indeed negotiated by founding fathers such as Sir Ahmadu Bello, Dr. Nnamdi Azikwe and Chief Obafemi Awolowo.”

He said this at the Enugu Sports Club, yesterday while addressing Anambra citizens residing in Enugu on what he set to achieve if elected as the governor of Anambra State.

He added that the proscription of IPOB by the federal government and calling it a terrorist group was wrong.

“It was wrong in the first place for the federal government to have sent soldiers to commit mass murder in Igboland,” he stated.

He said the November 18 governorship election will determine the future of Anambra state, adding that he is the only candidate capable to turn the state around for good.

“We will manage Anambra to produce human resources. I am the only candidate discussing how to turn around Anambra state. My role is to take Ndigbo, Anambra to a higher purpose. My vision is to build a world class model state in Nigeria.

“I wand to run a transparent based government driven by Ndi-Anambra aspiration. Our strategy is to play in the digital economy, reform core values based on knowledge, vision, execution and sustenance,” he said.
