Embattled leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, has vowed that he will put an end to the insecurity in the South East in two minutes, if released from detention.
Kanu made this disclosure while speaking with newsmen after the Abuja Federal High Court denied him bail on Tuesday.
He noted that nobody in the South East can antagonize his orders concerning the security situation in the region.
While distancing himself from the violence in the south east, the angry Biafra agitator promised that those behind the violence, in the name of being IPOB members, would not be spared.
“Anybody committing crime cannot go free. I swear it. Anybody committing crime in the east cannot go free. They are doing it because I am in the custody of the Department of State Service. If I were to be outside, nobody can try this.
“I suspect that some people in government are complicit. They are making money out of the insecurity in the South East.
“They know if Nnamdi Kanu is outside, in two minutes, this nonsense will stop and there will be peace in the South East. Who is the bagger or idiot that will speak when I am talking? I will give an order in the East who is the idiot that I will give an order that will counter it? Nobody can. I am Nnamdi Kanu.
“Anybody involved in any form of violence in the East in the name of IPOB is a goner, and they know it. Let me come out of this mess, only two minutes, there will be peace in the East.”
Earlier, Justice Binta Nyako had declined Kanu’s application for bail.
The judge, however, ordered an accelerated hearing of the case involving Kanu, who is facing charges bordering on terrorism and treasonable felony.
Kanu, who was brought to the court on Tuesday, has been in the custody of the DSS, since his arrest.
Delivering the ruling, Justice Nyako held that the court would only grant an accelerated hearing in the matter and ordered the prosecution to call its first witness.
