    Orji Kalu: Simon Ekpa threatened me for not endorsing Biafra

    Published on

    According to Orji Kalu, the lawmaker for the Abia North Senatorial District, Simon Ekpa, the self-declared leader of the outlawed Indigenous People of Biafra, or IPOB, warned him for not backing Biafra.

    In an interview with Arise Television on Monday, Kalu made this claim, claiming he disregarded Ekpa’s threats against him for not endorsing Biafra agitation.

    Since intelligence is the foundation of security, the congressman urged security agencies to take aggressive steps to fight crime.

    I left Simon Ekpa to his conscience despite his threats and calls that I don’t support Biafra.

    “You must be a strong leader to condemn crime, and I eradicated crime.” “I am very strong-willed when it comes to security, and I can do anything to safeguard the lives and property of the people I rule.”

    He declared that no governor should allow any kind of criminality to occur in his state. However, Kalu advised the governors in the southeast to deal with the actions of non-state actors with ruthlessness and resolve.

    On November 21, the pro-Biafra protester was taken into custody by Finnish police. The Päijät-Häme district court later sentenced him to prison for disseminating terrorist propaganda on social media.

    The pro-Biafra agitator will face accusations from the prosecution in May 2025, according to a district court in Finland.
