Legal Battle In IPOB As Kanu’s Lawyers Ejiofor, drags Kanu’s Successor, Simon Ekpa to Nigerian Court for Declaring Biafra’s Independence in 2023

Lawyer for the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, Ifeanyi Ejiofor Esq has filed a suit before the Federal Capital Territory High Court against Simon Ekpa, a Finland based IPOB supporter and four others.

Ejiofor, in his application on Tuesday claimed that Ekpa is issuing violent, disturbing and false declarations about South east sit-at-home.

Ekpa insists he is Biafra Spokesperson but IPOB in Nigeria has debunked it.

He tweeted on Tuesday, “Biafra will declare no Nigeria political activities in Biafra territory.”

Today, we formally commenced a legal action before the FCT High Court against Simon Ekpa, which action is founded on a plethora of grave infractions arising from his violent, disturbing and false declarations.

I may not release further details here so that it will not prejudice the robust legal actions already lined up for him and his cohorts. It shall be coming in piecemeal. This is the first batch.

I also want to assure Simon Ekpa and his cohorts affected by this compelling legal action, that no matter the country you people believe to be presently hiding under its sovereign protection, the full arms of the law shall certainly catch up with you all, in the legal onslaught already commenced. This is just one in the long line of compelling civil and criminal litigations coming your way.

The hour has come, and I wish to reiterate that you Simon Ekpa cannot escape from the long arms of the law.

We move! With this oji abatam!

Signed
Sir ifeanyi Ejiofor, Esq.
