Some Southeast governors have been allegedly placed under the death sentence for yet to be disclosed reasons by the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).
This allegation was made known by the governor of Abia state, Okezie Ikpeazu in Abuja.
According to the governor, he is one of those under the IPOB fatwa.
Ikpeazu who spoke on same day his Imo State counterpart, Hope Uzodinma, accused opposition elements of sponsoring the recurring violence across the country for the purpose of discrediting the Buhari administration.
Ikpeazu, speaking during an interactive session with youths and women under the auspices of the “TOS Foundation Youth and Women for Good Governance” initiative, organised by The Osasu Show (TOS) Television Network, in Abuja, on Thursday night, did not say why IPOB wants him and other Southeast governors dead, but said he does not subscribe to the style or strategy of the leader of the group, Nnamdi Kanu.
The governor said although some of the issues being raised by Kanu are valid, his strategy leaves much to be desired.
“People are beginning to think now that some of the issues raised by Nnamdi (Kanu), if they are issues of injustice, marginalisation and inequality, any part of society have a right to begin to feel cheated or unwanted,” he said.

“So, some of those things which Nnamdi said are valid. Some of us can see them. We cannot continue to hide behind a finger.
“But some of us do not subscribe to his style or strategy. Because I do not understand where he is going and how he is going and when he plans to pull the brakes and what he wants to achieve.
