I swear, I have no hand in EndSars protest – Nnamdi Kanu

0 Less than a minute

Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), has denied any involvement in the October 2020 #EndSARS protests and the destruction of properties in Lagos State.

During his trial at the Federal High Court in Abuja on Thursday, a video showed Kanu being interviewed by the Department of State Services (DSS) on July 17, 2021. When asked if his October 20, 2020 broadcast incited violence in Lagos, Kanu responded that Lagos is outside Biafra territory, and therefore, any unrest there cannot be linked to him.

Kanu said: “I swear in the name of God that created heaven and earth, I have no hand and I know absolutely nothing in whatever form about the riot and destruction that happened in Lagos during #EndSARS.

“If I have authority over people, I won’t be calling for a referendum. I would have just woken up one day and say let’s create Biafra.”
