Anambra State Governor Charles Chukwuma Soludo has alleged that Simon Ekpa, a self-proclaimed follower of Nnamdi Kanu, is now commanding a group of the banned Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).

Remember how IPOB’s Emma Powerful accused Simon Ekpa’s group of carrying out attacks in the South-East and violating the Monday sit-at-home order?

Soludo said in an interview with Channels Television that his administration is willing to provide amnesty to agitators who lay down their guns.

Stop Associating ESN/ESN With Criminals – IPOB Warns Soludo

After providing amnesty to individuals wanting to halt violence, he indicated that security agents would retaliate against those who refused the amnesty.

Soludo said: “Within the agitation movement, we have to agree that there are now factions. There is the one led by one guy in Finland called Simon Ekpa.

“IPOB has come out to accuse that group of being behind much of the criminality in the South-East.

“A lot of them in the bush out there are having camps here and there. They come out to kidnap and kill. Once we isolate all the groups that are not involved in this, then we can focus on the criminals.

“We have also offered them some kind of amnesty. Come out, give us your guns, we are prepared to give you training in whatever skills, even if we have to raise resources to empower you to become useful partners in the development of society.”
