Adamu Garba, a former All Progressives Congress, APC, presidential aspirant, has suggested why Peter Obi, the Labour Party presidential candidate would not call the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, terrorists.
Garba claimed Obi cannot call IPOB a terrorist group because it may affect his 2023 presidential ambition.
In a tweet, Garba said Obi should call a press conference and declare IPOB a terrorist organization.
According to Garba: “To disprove Miyetti Allah, Peter Obi should go to Arewa House, organize a media conference & categorically call IPOB as terrorists that they are, like all senior political leaders from the North called Boko Haram and Bandits as terrorists.
“Alas, he may not do that. Don’t blame them.”
The former Anambra State governor has been criticized for keeping silent over IPOB’s activities.
But, Obi’s running mate, Datti Baba-Ahmed, had dismissed such claims, stressing that the LP presidential candidate is not in support of IPOB.
