The group during the meeting summoned Igbos from all works of life including the Igbo academics, elders, clerics, patriotic public figures, women and youth, both at home and abroad.
Recall that Nnamdi Kanu had earlier threatened that elections will not hold in the state until the federal government grants the group’s request on a referendum for Biafra independence. Kanu also said the group will boycott the 2019 election if the demand for Biafra is not granted.
“If the federal government does not agree with us on a date for referendum, there will be no elections in the southeast, we are starting with Anambra come November this year. There will be no governorship election in Anambra state,” Kanu had threatened.
