Nigerian investigative journalist, Kemi Olunloyo says she cannot confirm death rumors surrounding the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.
Olunloyo said in a tweet on Tuesday evening that she’s calling on IBOB to refute the claims… saying “this is one strong news I cannot authenticate.”
“#BREAKING Reports that Nnamdi Kanu has died. This is one strong news I cannot authenticate. Kanu or IPOB will have to debunk this. I hope he’s fine. Good luck to everyone,” she tweeted.

Although IPOB is yet to make an official statement on the matter, however, on Kanu’s Twitter page, a few hours after her claims, a message was sent off from the IPOB leader’s account announcing his usual broadcast to be aired on Wednesday.
“Aso Rock has collapsed, its loot & burn cabal in disarray. Hungry masses waiting to extract long-overdue justice. Join my emergency broadcast via my FB page http://facebook.com/MaziNnamdiKanu …#RadioBiafra FB, FM, App, satellite & online,” Kanu tweeted.
