The Ekiti state chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has accused Governor Ayo Fayose of giving financial support to the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) and its leader, Nnamdi Kanu.
The party urged the nation’s security agencies to investigate the governor’s alleged support for IPOB, which the Nigerian military just declared a terrorist group.
In a statement on Saturday by its Publicity Secretary, Taiwo Olatunbosun, Ekiti APC said; “Fayose demonstrated the seriousness of his support for the collapse of Nigeria” when the governor released his telephone number and email address on April 27 to those interested in the Biafra cause to contact him.
According to Olatunbosun, the telephone number and the email address Fayose released to the public for identifying with the Biafra struggle are: 070300000393 and email: mystory2006@yahoo.com.
He described the governor’s action as a “treasonable act”.
The party’s spokesman said the governor’s lawyer’s statement at the weekend calling for dialogue to resolve the Biafran crisis is an afterthought.
