Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, has disclosed that he once felt like abandoning the push for the actualisation of Biafra.
Kanu said he felt like pulling out of the struggle for Biafra after the incident that claimed the lives of some members of IPOB in Enugu.
Recall that members of IPOB and security operatives clashed in Emene, Enugu State, on Sunday.
The clash had led to the death of some people.
Reacting, the Department of State Services, DSS, had claimed that IPOB killed two of its operatives during the clash.
However, Kanu in an open letter to IPOB members likened his feelings to that of Jesus Christ who wished that “the cup pass over him” when he was about to be crucified.
Kanu, however, assured that rather than abandon the struggle, he would keep fighting for the emancipation of Igbo people.
“In my most private moments – when I reflect on this struggle and its fallouts, I have often been tempted, like Christ, to ask that this cup be passed from me.
“I am sure you all feel the same in many fleeting moments of despair that is common with the fragile human spirit,” Kanu’s letter reads partly.
