Kanunta, a brother of Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has suggested why Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike lost the presidential ticket of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, to former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar.

WITHIN NIGERIA had earlier reported that Atiku polled 371 votes to defeat other frontline aspirants – Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike and a former Senate President, Bukola Saraki who polled 237 and 70 votes at the primary election conducted at the Moshood Abiola Stadium in Abuja on Saturday.

According to him, IPOB and those killed during the massacre of Obigbo were factors responsible for Wike’s loss at the PDP primaries.

Kanunta, who disclosed this via his Twitter handle also dismissed claims that Sokoto State Governor Aminu Tambuwal betrayed Wike by stepping down for the eventual winner, Atiku.

His tweet reads: “Neither the North, nor Tambuwal betrayed #Wike. Nor was it any Southern disunity.

“It was KARMA that nailed him. The Karma of #Obigbo. The #IPOB was also a factor.

“Clue: Late Buhari won despite his open support for BokoHaram.”
