Leader of proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu has called off the planned boycott of elections by IPOB members in the South East.
Kanu had earlier ordered that elections would not take place in the area unless the Federal Government agreed to a referendum to determine the sovereignty of Biafra.
The South East governors and the apex socio-cultural organisation, Ohanaeze Ndigbo had tackled Kanu on this issue.
But in a statement made available to our correspondent on Friday in Awka, Anambra State by the group’s Media and Publicity Secretary, Emma Powerful, the group said it reached the decision to allow polls in the area after consultations with stakeholders.
