Mr Simon Ekpa, former radio Biafra anchorman can be liken to that evil disciple that intentionally nailed his master to the cross so as to takeover his vineyard.
The Finland based crook who has been touting around on the internet after arrogating himself the position of Biafra Prime Minister under the guise of Biafra Government in Exile, has become the greatest undoing of his master—Nnamdi Kanu.
This roguish Ebonyi-born agitator, not only has he become a pain on the anus of his master—Nnamdi Kanu and his legions of bandwagons, he has also destroyed every good thing that Ndigbo represent.
Ekpa, a son of anarchy who claim to be a disciple of Nnamdi Kanu, sold out his master by arming, killing innocent civilians and enforcing a counter-productive sit-at-home which has brought untold hardship and punctured the possibilities of negotiating for Kanu’s release from detention.
Before the madness of Mr Simon Ekpa manifested, News Band Newspaper had warned the leadership of the Indigenous People Of Biafra (IPOB) about the grave activities of the Finland based bandit.
News Band in a series of reports in 2021 and 2022 had exposed how Ekpa ganged up with the disgraced former Asset Recovery Officer of the separatist group in the United States, Nelly Ofoegbu to usurp the leadership of the movement.
In a special report titled, “Internal coup looms in IPOB as dismissed radio Biafra anchorman, Simon Ekpa moves against DOS”, News Band reported how multiple sources close to the movement revealed secret plot by some elements in the US chapter of IPOB to usurp the Directorate Of State (DOS), which is the highest decision making body of the movement.
This medium also reported how Nelly Ofoegbu, issued a statement, announcing that the US branch of IPOB will not longer take instructions from the DOS.
Though, Chika Edoziem, who is the head of DOS in a counter statement accused her of insubordination and subsequently announced her immediate expulsion from the group.
Nelly Ofoegbu before her expulsion from the group was in charge of fundraising for the outlawed Eastern Security Network (ESN) in the United States, a group accused of killing scores of security operatives and innocent civilians in the Southeast.
Since the leadership of the Indigenous People Of Biafra (IPOB) suspended the counter-productive sit-at-home exercise which was initiated by the group to protest against the rendition of Nnamdi Kanu from Kenya, Ekpa has refused to close ranks with them so as to expedite Kanu’s release.
Instead of aligning himself with the orders of IPOB central command, defiant Ekpa veered off from what ought to be and keep issuing counter order.
Now, Ekpa’s actions have become a threat to Kanu’s release. In the last three days, some parts of Southeast has come under intense attack of gunmen under the control of the Finland based bandit (Ekpa) who are enforcing sit-at-home.
Peoples businesses have been destroyed and properties set ablaze by these bunch of hooligans claiming to be pushing for Kanu’s release with their moronic actions.
However, Simon has succeeded in becoming that servant who out of jealousy and stupidity nailed his master to the cross to takeover his vineyard.
Probably, he has failed to understand the fact that every action he takes will be blamed on Nnamdi Kanu who is currently begging for his life in the hands of Nigerian government.
