Sowore, Nnamdi Kanu meet in New York, plan to send “shock waves down the spine of the oppressors in Nigeria”

Omoyele Sowore, presidential candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC) in the 2019 elections, on Tuesday met with Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), in New York.
A video of the meeting which was posted to Facebook, Sowore revealed that this was the beginning and the effect would send “shock waves down the spine of the oppressors in Nigeria”.
“They know that the moment all the oppressed people get together, they are in trouble. We are calling on all our brothers and sisters, wherever you may be,” Sowore said.
“The colour of injustice is the same, whether it is affecting you in Biafra land, it’s affecting you in Yoruba land, it’s affecting you in Idoma land, or even in Zamfara, or even in Niger Republic and other places on the continent of Africa.
“It doesn’t matter where oppression is ruining your life, what you need is freedom and what we are determined to give you is that freedom.”
“Those of you out there who think we have big differences and that we can’t talk, know that when people have revolutionary minds, these minds meet and bodies eventually meet,” he said.
Speaking on the meeting, the IPOB leader described Sowore, as his friend, saying “I met with my good friend Sowore and it has yielded today a confirmation that people can come together,” he said.
“There isn’t much of a difference for what we are fighting for because we are fighting for justice. We know and hope that the people that found themselves today trapped in that contraption called Nigeria will one day be free and it takes people to do it.
“I doubt it comes from heaven and we have to do it, we have decided to do it and it must be done.”
