A video has surfaced showing detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, saying former President Olusegun Obasanjo and his lineage will be wiped out on the same day anything bad happens to him.

According to Kanu, he has passed a directive to IPOB members to carry out the task if anything should happen to him.

As seen in the video, Kanu made the statement during a gathering with his supporters.

He said, "Anything that happens to me, anybody that comes from Obasanjo's lineage will die the same day and at the same time. It's a standing instruction to IPOB. Wherever they are, we will kill them ourselves and at the same time, the same day, 12 noon, wherever we find them all over the world. I am not like anything they have seen before. I warned them, that this would happen and that they cannot stand it."

MyNigeria recently reported about a viral audio in which Kanu said he can decide who lives or dies.

The IPOB leader also stated that he can play the role of God, describing himself as a very powerful man with millions under his command.

The audio must have been an excerpt of his numerous broadcasts on his pirate radio station, Radio Biafra.

He said, "As the leader of IPOB, I'm a very powerful man. I know that very well. I can decide who lives or who dies. I can decide to play God if I want to.

"I have over two million men under my command. I can destroy anywhere I want to have destroyed."

Kanu is currently in the custody of the Department of State Services (DSS) and is being tried for terrorism and treasonable felony.

The Federal Government has closed its case before a Federal High Court in Abuja, and Kanu has been ordered to open his defence after his no-case submission was dismissed by the court.

I told Obasanjo that I have given instructions to IPOB that If anything happens to me, his family and lineage would die the same time and the same day 12 noon".
