- He appealled that people should stop supporting them
General Christopher Musa, the Chief of Defence Staff, asserted that certain individuals and nations were providing support to Simon Ekpa, a Biafran agitator residing in Finland, to sow discord within the country.
Speaking at a press conference in Abuja, he called upon these collaborators to cease their actions, emphasizing the military’s unwavering commitment to restoring peace in the South-East region.
Musa said, “On the issue of Nnamdi Kanu, there are people that have continued to sponsor these people by contributing money. And you can see that they are not only killing people outside, they are also killing their people.
“So, you are funding somebody who is also killing you. So, our appeal is that people should stop supporting them, and expose all those doing those things, especially people like Simon Ekpa.
“He is sitting down there in comfort. Some countries are encouraging him to do what he is doing to Nigeria, and we are here supporting him. So, people must desist. We must call what is wrong, wrong. But I know that we are making efforts to ensure that we secure the whole of South-East and we will continue to do that.”
