Biafra: Nigerians React As IPOB’s Nnamdi Kanu Calls Off Election Boycott

A storm of mixed reactions by Nigerians has greeted the cancellation of an election boycott by Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the outlawed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).

Naija News had reported earlier that the IPOB called off the election boycott on Thursday night in a tweet on the micro-blogging site, Twitter.

Kanu had earlier hinted that he gave the Federal Government some conditions to call off the election boycott.

Giving reasons for his decision to call the election boycott on Thursday evening, Kanu said “all our preconditions and terms have been met, signed, sealed and delivered” but did not mention the conditions.

“Having confirmed this evening that all our preconditions and terms have been met, signed, sealed and delivered; I hereby call-off the election boycott across Biafraland on Feb. 16, 2019. I dedicate this historic victory to the formidable #IPOB family worldwide,” the IPOB leader tweeted.

Moments after Kanu tweeted, Nigerians took to the comment section of his tweet to berate the IPOB leader over his decision to cancel the election boycott.

You and who signed what? When and with what documents? Kindly stop this infantile foolery. Grow up bros! The Igbos are too wise to fall for these type of gimmicks. You will stay in UK having breakfast and then be calling for a referendum in Aba?

Do you mean to say; Nigeria and the international community has agreed that Biafra stands an independent nation?

Is Biafra referendum a go or a no go?#SNNBIAFRA

Please do not be fooled by Yahoo boys. As a Nigerian, it is a grave sin to be swindled into 419. We own 419. Do not allow a political jobber job you. Are you a learner?

Who did Nnamdi Kanu enter the agreement with? The fed govt? The SE Governors? @atiku and d @OfficialPDPNig ? The national assembly?
What r d conditons & terms of agreement?

Medicine after death. @MaziNnamdiKanu this is belated and most of your followers do not have PVC to vote for their choice candidates. May Nigeria succeed.

Well, I assume you saw the 'mene mene tekel…'
Smart move . You would've lost your struggle and relevance after the 16th.

U see the reason why i don’t like people that are taking cheap drugs,Vote how? Do they even have PVC.

Confused lots, why make a detour now? The sad part of it is, majority of IPOB members do not have a PVC so what really is in it for IPOB member who does not have PVC nor the politicians who struck the deal with you.

Nnamdi kanu, i don't know what u think u are? But if they had stayed at home and buhari wins instead of my Atiku, they will shout lefeledum lefeledum instead of referendum. Buhari might be ill but when it comes to IPOB and Biafra he is hale and hearty. #Wisdom

How a JOB man in the UK managed to FOOL a lot of SMART, BUSINESS MEN & WOMEN into revolting against their HOME government is still BAFFLING! I thought the ILLITERATES in NIGERIA were in other ZONES! Alas! How MISTAKEN I WAS. Welcome to the ZOO animals without PVCS!
