Leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, (IPOB) Sunday commended members of the secessionist group for assaulting a Nigerian Senator Ike Ekweremadu.
“The courageous act by IPOB at Nürnberg Germany is a polite warning to those engaged in selling our collective interest to Fulani caliphate,” Kanu tweeted on Sunday.
Ekweremadu Saturday was physically assaulted by some IPOB members in Nuremberg, Germany.

He confirmed the attack in a statement by his media aide Uche Anichukwu.
The Senator said he was disappointed by the conduct of the IPOB members and had reported the attack to the Nigerian Ambassador to Germany, Yusuf Tuggar.
“I tried to engage them, but when they became unruly, I had to leave the venue. The organisers also invited the police and I was accompanied by the venue,” Ekweremadu said.
A 64-second video about the attack had gone viral on the social media earlier on Saturday.
