Biafra: IPOB Leader Nnamdi Kanu ‘Down With Serious Sickness’

IPOB leader Nnamdi Kanu is “down with a serious sickness” amid the ongoing Biafra agitation.

NewsOne Nigeria reports that the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, is insane and requires help quickly, a psychologist who majors in human behaviour has said.

This reliable online news platform understands that the psychologist identified as O. S. Peter of Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU), says a person is described as insane if the person is in a state of mind which prevents normal perception, behaviour, or social interaction.

The psychologist who majors in human behaviour says the IPOB leader, who is on exile, exhibits these signs and it shows he is seriously mentally ill, adding that the symptoms of mental disorders found in Kanu are strong feelings of anger.

He said Kanu is always expressing extreme anger, like burning Nigeria, killing Nigerians, destroying Nigeria and even leaders of South East/South, stressing that these traits are similar to those found in Jim Jones, the infamous American preacher and faith healer turned cult leader who conspired with his inner circle to direct a mass murder-suicide of his followers in Jonestown, Guyana.

Peter said Kanu’s continuous description of Nigeria as a zoo is another trait of insanity, saying that Kanu instigating his supporters to beat up and disgrace politicians of Igbo extraction when they travel abroad, as in the case of former Senator Ike Ekweremadu, shows a strong trait of insanity.

The renowned psychologist said delusions or hallucinations (seeing or hearing things that are not really there) are other signs of insanity.

“When he says things like the VP was forcefully injected COVID-19 or that the VP and Femi Adesina were kidnapped or under house arrest or that Aso is empty, these are signs of insanity because they are a fabrication of his imagination,” he said.

He maintained that the denial of obvious issues like denying Igbos are Nigerians or assuming Igbos are Israelites or Jews and denying southeast politicians and leaders are not the major problem of the region are some signs of his insanity.

The popular Nigerian psychologist added that it is unfortunate that there are people who think he speaks the truth because like Jim Jones, he will lead them all to destruction. He then explained that another trait of insanity found in Kanu is confused thinking. “Kanu is confused in his perception and thinking, for example, he has raised this view about the President of Nigeria, Jibril of Sudan, Buhari is a clone, Buhari using silicon mask or that Buhari is doppelganger”.

“If Kanu submits himself for further examination it is possible that we find more traits of insanity in him. From the above, I have been able to establish that he has delusions, hallucinations, strong feelings of anger, denial of obvious issues and confused thinking but there could be more,” the psychologist added.
