Kanu, while speaking to some groups from the South-East, said he will not settle for anything less than Biafra.

According to Punch, the IPOB leader also said he will never give up his struggle for a Biafra nation, adding that he was born to champion the cause.

Kanu also said “I desire Biafra. I want Biafra. I want nothing else other than Biafra. I will not settle for anything else other than Biafra.

“That was what I was born to do and that is what I will do till the day Biafra will come, that we may live as free men on this very earth as the Most High God, Chukwu Okike Abiama, ordained it.

“I have chosen the option that we must be free as a people,  that we must be liberated as a race and that we must have every God-given freedom due to us.

“I would not want to go to heaven to experience it (freedom). I want to experience it here.”

"I thank all of you that worked very hard, especially the Igbo Youth Movement, I must be specific, and the Eastern Consultative Assembly, and all the market men, market women, those that closed their shops to see us and all those who made efforts to ensure that I was not consumed.

“I thank all of you, those who contributed to my being here today, because without your pressure, I don’t think I will be here.

“However, the work is not done yet, we need to finish it,” he added.

One of the conditions given by Justice Binta Nyako of the Abuja Federal High Court for Nnamdi Kanu’s bail was that he should not grant any interviews.
