FG’s attitude towards court case dangerous – Ohanaeze youths

 The youth wing of the apex Igbo socio-cultural organization, Ohanaeze Ndigbo has rued what it called the poor handling of the case involving the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.

The secessionist was billed to stand for his trial on Monday but the Federal Government was unable to produce him in court prompting the Judge to adjourn the matter till October 21, 2021.

However, Ohanaeze is not comfortable with the Federal Government’s reason, and warns such could worsen the already tensed-situation.

It made its stand known in a statement signed by Mazi Okwu Nnabuuke, the President-General.

OYC noted that, “we find it hard to understand how the same Government that had all the logistics to repatriate Nnamdi Kanu from Kenya back to Nigeria in a commando-like fashion should say they were unable to bring him to court owing to logistics reasons.

“What logistics are they talking about? They own all the security apparatus; they own all manner of vehicles; they could even shut down the FCT to make the trial go on.

“It shows unwillingness on the part of the government to prosecute the IPOB leader and the court should not keep him forever. It owes a duty to free the detainee if the prosecutor is not ready to go on with the case.

“The present development is dangerous and capable of increasing the tension in the land.”

“We must caution that the government should treat this matter with caution and this is why we have continued to advocate for a political solution,” it added, urging Igbo leaders to intervene and secure Kanu’s freedom.

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...
