If he wants to testify, let him come out and open it and see whether it will return the same person, people will never admit it. he will be in exile; he will never come back in Igbo land.
"Uwazuruike denies that he never had an agreement with the federal government to stand as a witness against Kanu under the hood, but he forgot that no matter how the bird flies up, her below must be seen to know him and he thought he was the only the way he can kill IPOB which is seen as a threat.
"But he's a coward, because he wants to destroy the structure of the field, let him come out openly and testify against Nnamdi in court and see if it will come back to the same person.
On the allegation that Uwazuruike Kanu and his IPOB are rogue Kanunta who spoke on behalf of his brother, from their base in Germany, said that this is / BIM MASSOB leader who was a real crook.
"Uwazuruike is a real con man; he is a fraud who deceived Biafran billion Naira. We all know that Uwazuruike took money from the government, he was threatened and fights out on the set, so there is nothing he can do for the Biafran people, not in this generation, even in the future to come. "
Meanwhile, IPOB demanded that Uwazuruike, within four days should provide evidence of the alleged fraud of its leader, Cannes and its membership or to be unmasked.
IPOB said Uwazuruike statement must prove beyond a reasonable doubt and evidence shall not be anecdotes or just a guess, but verifiable and provable offenses of fraud was carried out Nnamdi Kanu or members IPOB.
Uwazuruike allegedly quoted to state and "described Nnamdi Kanu and his IPOB as fraudsters who are out to cheat gullible people", published in one of the national dailies Sun newspaper on Wednesday this week.
The statement signed by the deputy leader, IPOB, Mr. Uche Mefor and spokesman of the organization, Mr. Emma Nmezu and Dr. Clifford Chukwuemeka Iroanya said if after the deadline given Uwazuruike to make available all of its evidence of fraud against Kanu and IPOB then to publish information about it loaded facts and figures.
The statement read in part: "If after the expiration of a period that came to the public all the evidence of fraud against Kanu and IPOB do not, we will release information about you laden with facts and figures. All you have fought to hide from will be public knowledge laid bare. At the end of this exercise, MASSOB members themselves will lynch you.
"We are not against any person who wants to remain relevant selling market gossip against our leader, but in the right IPOB form, we expect concrete evidence that following his shaky accusations. Because we will come after you with an avalanche of evidence that will make you want to never connected your suspect himself with the word Biafra because criminals should not have anything to do with the freedom struggle.
"You're about to be unmasked big time. Your life will never be the same after January 15, 2017. Go and prepare for the final disgrace and out of the effort to rebuild Biafra. Our facts and the evidence will speak for itself. You are about to understand why IPOB is a monster that consumes enemies of Biafra and the inside and outside. "
Narrating problem Canoe with Uwazuruike, Kanunta said it all started in 2009 when the leader of MASSOB came to the UK and want to buy property in London that it works Kanu refused on the grounds that the money contributed to the poor Biafran should not be so spent.
"We had a problem with Uwazuruike because he wanted to buy a property in Gladstone intersection in east London in 2009 and we told him no, that can not betray our people in Nigeria using the same money these people are contributing to buying property in London that never will not happen. That was when we started to have problems with Uwazuruike in the first place, because they can not be killing our people at home and come to London to buy a property with your money.
"Anyone who has a superior idea over Uwazuruike, would like to work with that person. When we saw that we wanted to correct it, he felt threatened and started doing all sorts of things. Uwazuruike water around in their kitchen and believes that Biafra starts in the kitchen and ends up in his kitchen.
"Uwazuruike fought Kanu because his MASSOB is contaminated, it is listed as a terrorist organization because he used the platform to kidnap people, which is what he did in Cannes in 2009.
He said that Uwazuruike wants to testify against Kanu to send him to jail because he (Uwazuruike) considered Biafra can only be achieved under his watch, but he does not have what it takes to actualize Biafra. He said that the Founder MASSOB lacks the intellectual capacity to actualize Biafra.
"Biafra is a name that comes before any creature on this planet Earth, Uwazuruike not so many times, and he will continue to fail because he first puts himself in front of Biafra, and not vice versa," he said.
