BIAFRA NEWS : Once Tinubu Releases Nnamdi Kanu, We Will Report All Criminals In South-East To Army, Police — Deputy Speaker, Benjamin Kalu

                             

While speaking in a live broadcast which SaharaReporters monitored on Arise News, Benjamin mentioned that there was no justification for the continued detention of Kanu by the Nigerian government. 

Benjamin Kalu, deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, has appealed to President Bola Tinubu to release the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu. 

While speaking in a live broadcast which SaharaReporters monitored on Arise News, Benjamin mentioned that there was no justification for the continued detention of Kanu by the Nigerian government. 

He said “Let me come to Nnamdi Kanu, my words to Mr President is that we are not forcing you. We cannot coerce you as a commander-in-chief. We cannot force you. You are our leader, you are our president. But we are appealing to you. In the same sense of trying to heal the South East, in this spirit of equity, in this spirit of fairness, other people like him who were incarcerated have been released. 

“Extend this equity to our brother. Let him come out, so that any other person that carries arms on the streets of the South East, we will be the one calling the soldiers, the military, and the police to shut them down because they are just common criminals. 

“The South East Development Commission is a healing balm from President Tinubu to the region.

“Since 1970, South Easterners were promised the three Rs, Reconciliation, Reconstruction, and Rehabilitation. It has been in words for over five decades, and no president has had the courage to take action on it until now.

“President Bola Tinubu decided to be courageous and end the war that has been raging in the hearts of the South Easterners by fulfilling the promise of 54 years by bringing out a new agency. He did it without making noise.

“Special problems demand special intervention, and it’s all about strategy for anyone development-oriented. Former President Buhari, in view of what was happening in the North East, brought an intervention using the regional development agencies to carry out some intervention, and the resultant effect of that is tremendous and unrecognisable. 

“This is what is needed to carry out the intervention that the South Easterners have been longing for 54 years.”

“We are very grateful, and that’s why I’m calling on the youth in the South East to say no to protest and yes to process. This is the time of laying the foundation.”

Barrister Aloy Ejimakor, Special Counsel for the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, had also noted that President Tinubu lacked the moral authority to keep the IPOB leader in detention over his Biafra Nation agitation.

Ejimakor had said there was no difference between Kanu’s Biafra Nation agitation and Tinubu’s declaration in 1997 in an interview published by ThisDay, where he said he did not believe in one Nigeria and nothing was done to him.

ThisDay on April 13, 1997, published an interview granted by Tinubu titled ‘I Don’t Believe In One Nigeria’, where he declared that he did not believe in one Nigeria as championed by the late Dr. Nnamdi Azikiwe.

Tinubu was interviewed by Ayo Arowolo, the current Chief of Staff (CoS) to the Chairman of Arise Group, Prince Nduka Obaigbena.

Ejimakor on Thursday in a post on his X account said having declared his disbelief in one Nigeria, Tinubu as Nigeria’s President should not continue to keep Kanu who also expressed similar sentiment in detention.

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...
