Ex-minister says IPOB leader was ready for amicable resolution before attack

Leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra movement, Nnamdi Kanu -- the current main pro-independence groups want a referendum on self-determination
A former minister present at Nnamdi Kanu's meeting with South East governors has said the IPOB leader was ready for amicable resolution before the Army attacked.

In a statement by the elder statesman on Monday, September 18, 2017, Kanu showed readiness for amicable resolution of issues concerning the Indigenous People of Biafra's agitation for Biafra during his meeting with South-East governors in Enugu on August 30, 2017.
Nwabueze said, “On 30th August, 2017, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, Evangelist Elliot Ugochukwu-Uko and I met with the South-East Governors Forum.
“The meeting was chaired by the current Chairman of the Forum and Governor of Ebonyi State, Dave Umahi, who, in his conduct of the meeting, exhibited his characteristic sagacity, candour and forthrightness, tempered with friendliness.
“Perhaps charmed by the things said by the chairman and the way he conducted the meeting, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, on his part, showed an accommodating disposition for an amicable resolution of the crisis and more specifically a disposition to reconsider the threat to stop or disrupt the 2019 elections and the Anambra State governorship election on November 18, 2017, but emphasized that the decision did not lie with him alone and that the leadership of the Indigenous People of Biafra  must be carried along.
