He also accused the Police Chief of attempting to cause bad blood between Yorubas and Biafrans.
“The public is hereby notified that the allegations that IPOB is plotting to attack Lagos is a LIE. Lagos State CP, Hakeem Odumosu who made the allegation is a former CSO to Tinubu & their intention is to fuel division between Yorubas & Biafrans. It won’t work. This is not 1967!” Kanu stated in a Twitter statement.
It will be recalled as previously reported by Naija News that the Lagos Police Command said there were threats by Oodua Republic and the Independent Peoples of Biafra (IPOB) agitators to disrupt law and order, and attack soft targets in the state.
Speaking on Monday at a stakeholders’ forum on security chaired by Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu at the state secretariat, Alausa, the state Police Commissioner, Hakeem Odumosu, asked Lagosians not to panic over the threat.
Odumosu said security agencies in the state were on top of threats by the agitators to disrupt the peace of the state and the nation in general.
The commissioner noted that twenty-four Yoruba separatist groups have been identified and being closely monitored.
Reacting, the IPOB leader however said the Police Commissioner lied about the submission.
