ENUGU, Nigeria (VOICE OF NAIJA)- Popular Nollywood actor, Yul Edochie, has warned Simon Ekpa, that his sit-at-home orders will not bring the Biafra he is fighting for.
Ekpa, a Finland-based separatist and self acclaimed support of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Indigenous People of (IPOB), had issued a five day sit-at-home order, which he ended on Wednesday night.
Reacting, Edochie, who is also a film director said, said that Nigeria was not joined by any other apart from the British government.
In a a tweet on Friday, he said: “Dear Simon Ekpa, ‘sit at home’ will not bring Biafra. Suffering (sic) your own people will not bring Biafra. Nigeria wasn’t joined by Emeka or Chioma, Nigeria was joined by the British Govt. for their own personal reasons, therefore suffering your people to make a point is of no use.”
Suggesting a solution, the actor said: “To achieve Biafra we must find peaceful & diplomatic ways to make the world hear our voice.
“And it starts by preaching LOVE, PEACE & UNITY amongst Ndi Igbo. Using violence on your people will only bring division. And a divided house can never achieve anything meaningful.”
