IPOB’s Special Counsel Speaks On ‘Consequence’ Of Facebook Blocking Nnamdi Kanu’s Account

Aloy Ejimakor, the outlawed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB’s) Special Counsel, has warned that the blacklisting of activist, Nnamdi Kanu's social media account may lead to revolt and increase his following.

Diaspora-based Kanu is an activist who supports the creation of a breakaway state of Biafra.

Hundreds of people in southern Nigeria protested the then-continued detention of Kanu post-October 2015 that he was arrested in Lagos.

Recall that social networking service company, Facebook, had on Tuesday blacklisted the account of Kanu.

AllNews confirmed that Kanu's account was banned and deleted for alleged dissemination of fake news, videos and propaganda.

Several persons aversed to Kanu's agenda are believed to have petitioned the social media company, as Kanu uses the platform to make his routine broadcasts.

The 53-year-old was billed to make his special broadcast on Tuesday evening. But his teeming followers were unable to listen to his so-called "lecture" on Facebook following the well-timed embargo.

For years, State/non-State actors have been pressuring Facebook to de-platform @MaziNnamdiKanu. The agenda, which @Facebook is most likely unaware of, is to cut off Kanu from the millions that follow him.

Well, it will work in the OPPOSITE, just like his ARREST in 2015 did.
