Leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) Nnamdi Kanu has warned the new Commissioner of Police in Oyo State Ngozi Onadeko to be cautious in handling the matter involving an activist Sunday Adeyemo alias Sunday Igboho.
Mrs Onadeko has been ordered by the Inspector-General of Police Mohammed Adamu to arrest Igboho who gave an eviction notice to herdsmen in Igangan, Ibarapa North Local Government Area of Oyo state.
The incident has threatened inter-tribal conflict in some parts of the country.
In a Facebook post, Kanu urged the police commissioner to resign, else her family would face the might of IPOB.
He said, “A warning to Mrs Ngozi Onadeko, the new Igbo Commissioner of Police, Oyo State Command. You are an Igbo woman, so I expect you to be reasonable enough to know that Fulani IGP posted you to Oyo to superintend the arrest or possible killing of Yoruba youths in order to foment enmity between the East and the West at this critical juncture in the history of the liberation of all indigenous peoples across Nigeria, including you and your family.
“I will advice you to resign honourably from your position as a certain Yoruba CP did in Abia State when he declined to order men under his command to open fire on IPOB protesters.
“I am warning you not to do anything likely to jeopardise the safety or well-being of Sunday Ighoho otherwise you and your family will have the might of IPOB to contend with. The silly game you people always play in that #Zoo will no longer wash with us.
“Suddenly Fulani have realised that appointing an Igbo woman as Police Commissioner is a good thing because they want to use you. Nothing should happen to Ighoho.”
