Some Nigerians from the Southern region have commended the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu for launching his own security outfit to tackle insecurity in the country.
Kanu had launched the security outfit at the weekend via a live Facebook broadcast, which he explained, was necessitated by the current security situation in major parts of the country.
At the beginning of the podcast, he said, “We have decided to take it upon ourselves to defend the land of Biafra. We are determined and persistent, and we are not going to stop until we eradicate every form of terrorism. We are going to defend our land from terrorism. We are sending a note of caution that any attempt to kill innocent people will be kindly reciprocated.”
The development has since continued to dominate discussions on social media platforms.
Investigations revealed the initiative is backed by several people from the South East, particularly those supporting calls for self-determination and the creation of Biafra.
Some of them who commended the move also expressed their willingness to be part of the security outfit.
Here are some comments gathered on Monday:

Prince Frederick Michaels wrote, “The commands you have given shall stand firm, and we’ll support. Ikenga Biafra, go on sir, Almighty is with you.”
