"In the previous few days, the media was flooded with news on transaction going ahead between the Federal Government and the individuals from MEND, where our customer's name (Nna-mdi Kanu) conspi-cuously included. "It is on that note that we wish to advise the overall population that Nnamdi Kanu has no association, contact, ties or any type of association with the individuals from MEND. "All things considered, MEND has no inferred, immediate or express power of Nnamdi Kanu to speak to him or IPOB in any implied transaction, going ahead amongst MEND and the Federal Govern-ment. "The overall population is in like manner encouraged to overlook, disapprove and slight the lie being hawked by MEND. Nnamdi Kanu does not know them!

"Be that as it may, Nnamdi Kanu is not disinclined to political arrangement, in determining his present politically organized difficulty. Kanu invites certified political answer for this case. "The FG does not have to support their repre-sentatives to go to far away Bayelsa State or the brooks of Niger Delta area, keeping in mind the end goal to reach Nnamdi Kanu. They know where they kept him, which is effectively available to them.
