News Biafra: Nnamdi Kanu Petitions African Commission Against FG






















 other monetary instruments, chattels and real properties belonging to Nnamdi Kanu, IPOB and its members are in imminent danger of being confiscated by the Federal Republic of Nigeria.”
It recounts: “On or about September 12, 2017, and lasting till about September 15, 2017, the Nigerian army surrounded and began to launch a series of armed attacks/invasion of Nnamdi Kanu’s home. The army used live bullets and other lethal munitions in the course of the attacks. Several people including Nnamdi Kanu, his parents, siblings, children, women, the elderly, and numerous visitors were at the home during the attacks. All occupants were trapped in the premises during the attacks that lasted two days.
“At the end, Nnamdi Kanu’s home was badly damaged, several people were killed. Others were wounded. The Nigerian army ‘captured’ several people alive and took them to an unknown location. Since after the attacks, Nnamdi Kanu has not been seen or heard from, either in public or by those who normally would have heard from him. And the Nigerian army has refused to disclose whether he was killed, wounded or taken into their custody.
“During the course of the attack, the Nigerian army, in a published statement, declared IPOB a terrorist organisation, apparently to justify its indiscriminate use of lethal force against Nnamdi Kanu and members of IPOB in Umuahia, Abia State and other states of the South East of Nigeria, which the Federal Republic of Nigeria has, without lawful purpose, subjected to military occupation since September 10, 2017.”
The petition adds: “However, on September 21, 2017, Justice Kafarati of the Nigerian Federal High Court, Abuja, made an ex parte order (without prior notice to IPOB), declaring IPOB a terrorist organisation and further ordering its proscription pursuant to an ex parte application brought before the court on September 20, 2017 by the Attorney-General of Nigeria.
 

Kanu drags federal government of Nigeria to African human rights commission.

Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), has written a human right petition against the federal government.
The petition, addressed to the African Commission on Human and Peoples’ Rights (ACOHPR), is asking the commission to stop the Federal Government from further violations and harassment against his person and IPOB members.
The petition, dated December 5, 2017 and entitled, ‘Communication Brought Pursuant to the African Charter on Human and Peoples’ Rights’, was filed on his behalf by his counsel, Mr. Aloy Ejimakor.
The petition, listed Prof. Uzodimma Nwala, Chinedu Njoku, Greg Nwadike, Carol Munday, Jeremiah Chukwuokolo and two others as witnesses to the alleged violations.
It reads in part: “The declaration that IPOB is a terrorist organisation and that its members commit terrorist acts has empowered and emboldened the Nigerian army and other security agencies, acting under the colour of law, to harass, intimidate, arrest or even kill or torture IPOB members and any member of the Igbo ethnic group suspected to be an IPOB member.
“Nnamdi Kanu is in imminent danger of being shot and killed on sight by Nigerian security forces still at-large at various checkpoints. They are on reconnaissance and in cordon and search operation in the environs and outlying areas of Nnamdi Kanu’s homestead at Afara-Ukwu, Umuahia, Abia State of Nigeria and at checkpoints in all the five states of the South East of Nigeria that border the wider geographical area of Umuahia where Nnamdi Kanu was last seen alive.

Prof Uzodinma Nwala is a genuine Igbo elder who leads from the front not like the Judas John Nnia Nwodo. This brave professor and renowned academic from Mbaise the home of Ahiara Declaration, was the first prominent person to visit Nnamdi Kanu, Benjamin Madubugwu, David Nwawuisi and Chidiebere Onwudiwe in Kuje prison. He was also a signatory to the law suit pending at Enugu High Court seeking to declare Buratai and his Operation Python Dance illegal. He led his group Ala-Igbo Development Foundation (ADF) to United Nations in June to argue the case of self determination for Biafra. Such men should be leading Igbo people not compromised cowards like John Nnia Nwodo who are perennial slaves to Arewa caliphate. By signing this petition to Africa Union, his reputation and pedigree is becoming unassailable. Nnia Nwodo should learn from him.

Nnamdi Kanu Sends Important Message To IPOB Members From Detention

    The detained leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, has sent an important message to his followers over the Biafra movement. The embattled separatist according to one of his brothers, Prince Kanu Meme, has asked his disciples to trust and comply with directives from the Directorate of State (DOS). Boasting his belief in the separatist movement’s administrative structure, Kanu said “I’m DOS and DOS is me”.  Naija News understands that the DOS, headed by diaspora-based Chika Edoziem has been contending with authority issues since Kanu’s arrest in Kenya in June 2021. It has been observed that IPOB is in disintegration following Nnamdi Kanu’s rearrest and detention. The present situation of the Biafran movement can be likened to that of sheep without a shepherd. However, Kanu in a conversation with his sib...

IPOB: The Nigerian Civil War, commonly known as the Biafran War

  THE HISTORY OF BIAFRA AND NIGERIA WAR  Israel, Nigeria and the Biafra civil war    The Nigerian Civil War , commonly known as the Biafran War (6 July 1967 – 15 January 1970), was a war fought between the government of Nigeria and the secessionist state of Biafra. Biafra represented nationalist aspirations of the Igbo people, whose leadership felt they could no longer coexist with the Northern-dominated federal government. The conflict resulted from political, economic, ethnic, cultural and religious tensions which preceded Britain's formal decolonization of Nigeria from 1960 to 1963. Immediate causes of the war in 1966 included a military coup, a counter-coup and persecution of Igbo living in Northern Nigeria. Control over the lucrative oil production in the Niger Delta played a vital strategic role. Within a year, the Federal Government troops surrounded Biafra, capturing coastal oil facilities and the city of Port Harcourt. The blockade imp...
