EXTRA: IPOB names Fayose governor of Biafra

The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has bestowed Ayodele Fayose, governor of Ekiti state, with the title of honorary governor of Biafra Republic.

IPOB announced this in a statement made available to PUNCH and signed by Emma Powerful, its media and publicity secretary.

It said the honour was in recognition of his solidarity with Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the group, and also for his display of courage at the court sitting in Abuja during Kanu’s recent arraignment.

“We also acknowledge the immense contributions of the honorary Biafran Gov. Ayodele Fayose who did what no south-east or south-south governor had the courage to do,” the statement read.

  1. The truth and goodness attract. The Governor’s (Fayose) singular act of solidarity with those he sees as being unjustifiably incarcerated has indeed driven away toxic emotions like anger, disillusion, vengeance, pride, futility. I promise, with the release of Kanu and hopefully in the very near future all the others whom the courts have legally granted bail pending their trial, many people including yours truly will now fill that space with gratitude, understanding,love,humility and affection. Our leaders have to learn what it means to be magnanimous and to put into practice

  2. Supported. These Two Gentleman, are Not Only Humanists, but Also Persons Who Loath Injustice at Any Level and to Anybody and will Publicly Express so. These are the Kinds of Persons Nigeria Needs.
