A faction of the Ohanaeze Ndigbo socio-cultural organization has vowed to capture and bring self-styled Biafra agitator, Simon Ekpa to justice over crimes he committed in the Southeast.
Ohanaeze made the disclosure after Ekpa announced Biafra referendum convention.
Okechukwu Isiguzoro, the Secretary-General of the faction said Ekpa’s call for a referendum congress was concerning.
A statement by Isiguzoro said: “Ekpa’s self-proclaimed role as the Prime Minister of the Biafra Government in Exile and his declaration of a Biafra referendum is deeply concerning.
“Such actions have the potential to ignite civil unrest and chaos in Southeast Nigeria.
“Ohanaeze Ndigbo, together with Southeast political leaders, remains resolute in capturing Simon Ekpa and bringing him to justice.
“The ongoing search for Ekpa is a preventive measure aimed at averting the upcoming Sit-at-Home disruptions.”
