Nnamdi Kanu, Sowore Holds Secret Meeting In New York, Reveals Next Step

The leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu and Omoyele Sowore, candidate of the African Action Congress in the 2019 general elections, on Tuesday, vowed to end “domination and oppression” in Nigeria.

They stated this after a closed-door meeting held in New York to strategize on what they described as injustice in Nigeria.

In a Facebook live session to address the public after the meeting, the IPOB leader described the parley as a liberation for those trapped in the contraption called Nigeria.

According to Kanu: “I met with my good friend Sowore and it has yielded today a confirmation that people can come together.

“There isn’t much of a difference for what we are fighting for because we are fighting for justice. We know and hope that the people that found themselves today trapped in that contraption called Nigeria will one day be free and it takes people to do it.

“I doubt it comes from heaven and we have to do it, we have decided to do it and it must be done.”

On his part, Sowore said: “We met to talk about things we’ve both been passionate about but on a different plane and we respect those boundaries but we’ve had very useful conversations today so that everybody that is aspiring for a fair and just society can come together and rise up now and bring an end to the sorrow and suffering and the domination and the oppression that has become almost synonymous with our generation and our genes in Nigeria.

“Those of you out there who think we have big differences and that we can’t talk, know that when people have revolutionary minds, these minds meet and bodies eventually meet.”
