Biafra: I never said govt will kill Kanu – Dambazau

Minister of Interior, General Abdulrahman Dambazau (rtd) has denied reports that quoted him as saying leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu will be killed.
Dambazau allegedly said killing Kanu would not tear Nigeria apart, citing the deaths of MKO Abiola, his wife, Kudirat, Ken Sawo-Wiwa and the imprisonment of Obafemi Awolowo, as examples of people who had suffered in the hands of the federal government.
In his reaction, Dambazau described the report as false and malicious, adding that the perpetrators are out to cause disaffection, disunity and insecurity while creating public unrest.
His denial was contained in a statement signed by the press secretary, Osaigbovo Ehisienmen.
