BUHARI: THE DEATH OF NNAMDI KANU WILL BE THE END OF NIGERIA

Nnamdi Kanu The Leader Of The Indigenous People Of Biafra

Five months on, the Nigerian government still have been unable to provide proofs to substantiate the concocted allegations, failure in providing legal requirements of witnesses to testify against Nnamdi Kanu. Making matter worst is the censorship of the Nigerian judiciary by inducing the presiding judge in the person of John Tsoho of the federal high court Maitama, Abuja in altering and misinterpreting laws to favour their inconsistencies, lies and deceits. As all these ill-conceived plans are improbable, they have resorted and conspired to finally silence i.e to summarily kill Nnamdi Kanu. Is this not a big shame to Nigeria?

It is pertinent to note that the outcome of any eventuality on Nnamdi Kanu's life or health will definitely be met with defiance as never witnessed before in Nigeria. May I remind Nigeria that Nnamdi Kanu himself told them that "...he will rather remain in detention than to subject himself to their erroneous trial which the outcome will never be respected".
The conspired plot to assassinate Nnamdi Kanu which took place on Saturday 26th March 2016 at Abuja in a secret organized by Muhammadu Buhari had Messrs: Lawal Musa Daura, Governor Willie Obiano, Governor Rochas Okorocha, Governor Victor Okezie Ikpeazu and Lawrence Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi in attendance concluded on a false flagged hijack attempt on the vehicle that will convey Nnamdi Kanu to court.

 They concluded to contract some assassins that will camouflage as IPOB members and stage the false flagged hijack. In the process, the operatives of Department of State Services (DSS) will kill Nnamdi Kanu and then claim that he died in a crossfire during the purported hijack. The second option is to kill Nnamdi Kanu by poisoning his food. The same treatment that was meted on late M.K.O. Abiola.
But then again, the Nigerian government under the auspicious leadership of the ex coup plotter, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari must understand that the death of Nnamdi Kanu, either intentional or otherwise will be the end of the british creation called Nigeria.

History is gradually repeating itself again in Nigeria. It is thus high time the world understood that the Biafrans are not ready to take things for granted again. Prior to May 1967, Biafrans were pursued and hounded in all their habitats, streets, churces, workplaces and markets in Nigeria. These systematically orchestrated massacres of Biafrans led to a defensive genocidal war by Biafrans against a well-supported Nigerian military majorly backed and supported by the British government and her allies.

This genocidal war resulted in the destruction, displacement and death of more than five million (5million) innocent and defenseless children, women and men of Biafran extraction. The Red Cross and other relief agencies were prohibited from flying into Biafra to supply the much-needed supplies. All these that happened between 1967-1970 were a result of execution of all Biafrans in most cities in Nigeria. The same history is gradually ushering itself in again. There is a red alert on Nnamdi Kanu's life. It is therefore the reason why we the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) is using this medium to reach out to the entirety of humanity to understand what is going on withing and with Biafraland and her people.

The inability of the Nigerian government in proving  him wrong in the court and the squeezed plot to assassinate Nnamdi Kanu who in all legitimacy anchors the call for the restoration of Biafra will definitely erupt to another war which no one will escape from. The Nigerian Government with these Eastern Governors will not take anything as an excuse this time around as the infuriation is getting high. Recently, governor Willie Obiano killed more that 25 peaceful protesters at Onitsha, Victor Okezie Ikpeazu massacred a great number of Biafrans while praying and fasting in Aba, Abia state and Rochas Okorocha killed many Biafran in Imo state as well. As all these killings are ongoing, the (IPOB) had remained law-abiding and peaceful till date but we will surely respond to any eventuality against Nnamdi Kanu.

Nigeria: How Nigerian Politicians Squandered N118.2 Trillion ($600 billion) Between 2005 & 2016

(Onitsha Nigeria, 2nd February 2016) The leadership of International Society for Civil Liberties & the Rule of Law (Intersociety) wishes to inform statistically that the Nigerian political leaders holding forth at the Federal, States, Local Government and Federal Capital Territory have between January 2005 and December 2016; a period of 12 years, squandered a whopping sum of N118.2 trillion or $600billion. The squandered public funds are made up of generated and borrowed funds secured for the purpose of budgetary expenditures in all of the country’s public offices, between January 2005 and December 2016. The political leaders under reference include the Federal authorities, the authorities in charge of the country’s 36 States and 774 constitutionally recognized Local Government Areas (LGAs) as well as the authorities of the Federal Capital Territory (Abuja); numbering 17,500, made up of elected and appointed public office holders in the executive, legislative and judicial arms of government.

The political authorities under reference, have also between June 2007 and December 2016; a period of  ten years, incurred staggering public debts of over N10trillion or $50billion from local and international sources; comprising States and Federal Government’s local and foreign loans. Nigeria’s official or public total debts as at May 2007 stood at $23.5billion; comprising local debts of N1.8trillion ($20billion: 140.00/US$) and foreign debts of $3.5billion. This was after its $30billion foreign loans were liquidated in 2006 courtesy of Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala and leading international lending institutions.  But by the end of December 2016, Nigeria’s current total public debts must have risen to over N14.6trillion or $73billion. The Buhari’s federal Presidency alone has proposed a public borrowing of over $9billion or N1.84trillion in the 2016 budget proposal. Average of 20%-30% of 2016 budget proposal of each State in Nigeria is also expected to be funded from local or international borrowings.

When added, the country’s total official or public debts will be raised to as much as $80billion or N16trillion by the end of December 2016. The country’s current official public debts as at June 2015 were quoted by DMO as “N11.1trillion or $63.8billion”, using old official exchange rate of N155/US$. This is no longer fiscally realistic. Crookedness is also associated with government local borrowings in Nigeria; making it difficult for DMO to appropriately capture every kobo borrowed locally particularly by State Governments. As a matter of fact, totality of public borrowed funds in Nigeria both openly and illicitly borrowed; is strongly believed to be in the neighborhood of $80billion to $90billion or N18trillion or even more. Nigeria had also spent a whopping sum of N2.95trillion or $15billion in the past five years (2010-2014) in debts servicing. It is also feared in many informed quarters that Nigeria’s current public debts may most likely double at the end of President Buhari’s embattled administration by 2019, owing to alarming rates with which loans are being borrowed by his administration and subordinates of his administration particularly the State Governors.

On the other hand, by the end of December 2016, a total of N118.2trillion or $600billion borrowed and generated public funds in Nigeria since January 2005 would have been squandered by the named public office holders. These public office holders are majorly and dually controlled by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the All Progressives Congress (APC). The two major political parties are also “two fingers of a leprous hand” used by those 17,500 public office holders particularly the elected; through back and forth membership and political trading, to squander the princely public funds under reference.

This grounded finding of ours is built on similar facts laden finding made on 13th January 2013 by the Vanguard Newspaper, which corresponded with data available at the Federal Ministry of Finance. The report found that the referenced tiers of government and their agencies in Nigeria had between January 2005 and December 2013 budgeted, generated, borrowed and squandered a whopping sum of N80trillion ($400billion); out of which N56trillion ($280billion) was spent on recurrent expenditures, while paltry N24trillion ($120billion) was spent on capital expenditures. In our expanded and extensive investigation following the foregoing, we further found that another N38.2trillion or $190billion had been squandered between January 2014 and December 2016; a period of three years. Of this amount and by the end of December 2016, the Federal Government would have spent N16trillion or $80billion; South-south zone N5.6trillion or $28billion, Southwest N4trillion or $20billion, Northwest N3.1trillion or $15billion, 774 LGAs  N3trillion or $15billion, North-central N2.1trillion or $10billion, Northeast N2trillion or $10billion, Southeast N1.66trillion or $8.01billion and the FCT N625billion or $3.1billion which includes a 2016 projected budget of N180billion; totaling N38.2trillion or $190billion in three years.

Our grounded findings were arrived at using the main public budgets of the Federal Government, the 36 States and the Federal Capital Territory; while in the case of 774 constitutionally recognized Local Government Areas (LGAs), their statutory federation allocations was used. For instance, in the 2015 federal allocations to the LGAs in Nigeria, a total of N953billion or $4.5billion was so allocated. On the other hand, our grounded finding did not include supplementary budgets of some of the 36 States and the Federal Government (some) as well as the internally generated revenues of the 774 LGAs. That of the LGAs was informed by total castration of the independence and functionality of the LGAs system in Nigeria; worsened by the provisions of Sections 162 (6) (State Joint LGA account) and 7(1) (management of LGAs by State Government). Also, in the course of our findings, the official exchange of N199.00/US$ was applied or used. We also hold that if the “missing points” are added, the budgeted and squandered public funds in Nigeria in the past 12 years will be higher than the figure under discussion.

Further breakdown of the above findings statistically indicates that by the end of December 2016, the Federal Government would have budgeted, generated, borrowed and squandered a total of N48.1trillion or $240billion; having budgeted and squandered N1.8trillion in 2005, N1.9trillion in 2006, N2.3trillion in 2007, N3.58trillion in 2008, N3.76trillion in 2009, N4.6trillion in 2010, N4.48trillion in 2011, N4.7trillion in 2012, N4.98trillion in 2013, N4.92trillion in 2014, N4.5trillion and the Buhari’s supplementary budget of N575billion in 2015 in addition to his 2016 budget proposal of N6.07trillion; all totaling N48.1trillion or $240billion in 12 years or from 2005 to 2016.

The South-south or Oil Niger Delta Region emerged the second largest squanderer with a whopping sum of N17.1trillion or $85billion; comprising N11.5trillion budgeted and spent between January 2005 and December 2013, and N5.6trillion between January 2014 and December 2016. The constitutionally recognized 774 LGAs emerged third largest squanderer with N14.4trillion or $70billion allocation in 12 years; comprising N11.4trillion between January 2005 and December 2013, and N3trillion between January 2014 and December 2016.

Southwest zone was 4th largest squanderer and the country’s sub national largest debtor. It squandered a total of N11.3trillion or $56.5billion; comprising N7.3trillion between January 2005 and December 2013, and N4trillion between January 2014 and December 2016. Northwest zone was the fifth largest squanderer with N8.5trillion or $42.5billion; comprising N5.38trillion between January 2005 and December 2013, and N3.1trillion between January 2014 and December 2016; followed by North-central as sixth largest squanderer with N7.35trillion or $37.5billion; comprising N5.19trillion between January 2005 and December 2013, and N2.16trillion between January 2014 and December 2016. The Northeast zone was the seventh largest squanderer with N5.76trillion or $28.8billion; comprising N3.75trillion between January 2005 and December 2013, and N2trillion between January 2014 and December 2016.

This Southeast zone emerged 8th largest squanderer with N5.1trillion or $25billion; comprising N3.45trillion between January 2005 and December 2013, and N1.66 trillion between January 2014 and December 2016. The ninth largest squanderer was the Federal Capital Territory (Abuja) with N1.96trillion or $9.5billion; comprising N1.33trillion between January 2005 and December 2013, and N625billion between January 2014 and December 2016; all totaling N118.2trillion or $600billion in the past 12 years or January 2005 to December 2016.

It is shockingly sad that Nigerians are groaning in abject poverty in their land of plenty, to the extent that a whopping sum of N118.2trillion or $600billion was budgeted and squandered in the past 12 years (2005-2016) with little or nothing to show for it. Nigeria is a country of squander-mania. It is also developmentally dead as 98% of its solid minerals and agricultural produce are acutely subsistent or non- industrialized. Creative wealth is also near-totally absent owing to promotion by Nigeria’s political office holders particularly President Muhammadu Buhari administration, of sectional mediocrity and primordialism; corporate and bureaucratic idleness and laziness. Nigerian politicians rely heavily on oil and gas revenues as well as serial borrowings to sustain their political offices and siphoning of public funds.

As a matter of fact, crude oil revenues account for 35% of the country’s Gross National Product (GDP); 75% of government revenues and 90% of its export earnings till date. The country has no traces of any foreign investment overseas and has become “a territorial non grata” for real foreign investors, owing to myriad of its man-made security threats and other unsafe conditions as well as the Buhari’s gross and unrepentant affront to rule of law, human rights and constitutionalism. The country’s foreign reserves have shrunk from $36billion in October 2014 to $28billion in January 2016. Oil price has also fallen from $144 per barrel in July 2014 to as low as $30.25 per barrel in January 2016; leading Nigeria to lose over $70billion in oil revenues yearly to plummeted oil prices and presidentially provoked oil militancy in the Niger Delta.

Nigeria is expected to earn a meager sum of about $33billion from crude oil in 2016, from $102billion in 2013/2014 at the rate of $110 per barrel into 2.3million barrels per day.  Also, out of the expected dwindling crude revenues of about $33billion for 2016,  oil companies and drillers of the country’s crude oil are expected to be paid about $15billion or about 49% as contractual royalties; leaving the country with about $18billion or N3.6trillion oil revenues for this 2016. The Federal Government of Nigeria is expected to take about N1.5trillion or $7.5billion (52.6%); leaving the rest to oil States, 36 States, FCT and LGAs, etc.

The grand import of this grounded findings of ours is to bring to bear and to the attention of all Nigerians and members of the international community the entrenched squander-mania culture of the country’s political office holders and their total neglect and abandonment of over 170million citizens of the country to continually wallow in abject mass poverty; with the most shocking being chronic allocation of less than 30% of the budgets and staggering public funds under reference to capital projects. Another shocking observation of ours was resort particularly by States and the Federal Government to reckless local and foreign borrowings for the purpose of funding recurrent expenditures, comprising of personnel and overheads expenditures. In the Buhari’s supplementary budget of N575billion of 2015, for instance, most, if not all of it was for recurrent expenditures and in his 2016 budget proposal of N6.07trillion or $30billion, N3.6trillion or $18billion was for non-debt recurrent expenditures; which include N1.83trillion or $9.1billion for personnel costs and N547.8billion or $2.75billion was for overheads costs. Only a paltry sum of N1.8trillion or $9billion (30%) was proposed for capital expenditures. This is totally unacceptable!

Nigerians and members of the international community are therefore called upon to  reasonably and sacrificially draw concrete comparisons between the expenditure of the staggering public funds under reference and level of socio-economic development  ( i.e. roads, aviation, railway, transport, health, education, energy, water, shelter, justice, security and human rights, jobs, industry, environment and technology, etc) of their areas in particular and the country in general and be able to stand up and ask their political office holders, numbering 17,500, to account for the squandered public funds of N118.2trillion or $600billion in the past 12 years. They should rise up in condemnation of reckless and serial public borrowings in Nigeria particularly the entrenchment by political office holders of despicable habits of “borrowing to squander and plunder”.

NIGERIA'S MEDIA BLOCKADE AGAINST BIAFRANS IS A FRUITLESS MOVE

Nigerian Army On A Media Blockade Mission In Aba

As a matter of fact the existence of Press and Media coverage in the world today are special ways to enhance freedom of speech and also it is a very significant means by which the masses can checkmate the excesses of its leaders. It is also a way by which the oppressed can raise alarm over suppression of ones rights in a civilized or democratic society.

1967_1970 during Nigeria and Biafra war, Nigeria and British government consolidated and committed the world most dreadful genocide against Biafrans when over 6 million souls were killed including our children, fathers and our mothers. The war indeed was a brutal one, and it connoted the level of wickedness by two parties (Britain and Nigeria)  against Biafrans, over their right to self determination. One may ask, how possible is it that such cruelty was perpetrated against the Biafran race and the world was not aware of what was happening?

Related article:THE CONFISCATION AND BANNING OF NEWSPAPERS: A REIGN OF TYRANNY
The world should understand that the hatred displayed against Biafrans, especially by the Muhammadu Buhari led Nigerian government did not just start recently.
One of the most offensive device which Nigeria government used against Biafrans during the war, was  the total obstruction of media coverage, which limited the free flow of information regarding the war within its geographical space. As a result of this, most part of the world was not abreast with the ongoing genocide as at the time.

As if that was not enough, Nigeria government also ensured that the story about Biafra is not being discussed in any mass media and the every story about the war  was either dilluted, or removed from its education board.
Today, While crying out over the killing of innocent Biafrans, shooting and victimization of unarmed peaceful protesters, disobedient of court's orders and bribing of judges to rule against Nnamdi Kanu the Leader of Indigenous People of Biafra, Nigeria government have also ordered their armed forces to clamp down on vendors selling newspaper with Biafra stories in it.

They are doing all of this to prevent the world from knowing what is happening, they do not want their crimes against humanity exposed like they did in 1967-70. The killing of Biafrans and the unlawful detention of Nnamdi Kanu cannot be buried as if nothing ever happened, the world must be alerted. To sustain freedom of press and expression, we are urging every Human right group to put the dictator in line, as he has shown that he can never be a president, but a millitary junta.

The world must not keep silent this time, we have been denied access to many rights as a people, our leader Nnamdi Kanu has been denied his right to freedom, his crime was establishing Radio Biafra, and preaching truth which the Nigerian government term 'hate speech'. Radio Biafra is the only place we can tell our story, to let the world know our plight in the hands of the Nigeria government. signs of what happened in the past abound, the world should know that the second genocide against Biafrans has once again began. It will be inexcusable for the world to stay mute in the face of injustice.

BUHARI DEMONIZES SELF DETERMINATION BY INSISTING ON ONE NIGERIA

Muhammadu Buhari with the minister of foreign affairs of Sahrawi, Mohammed Salem Ould Salek, alongside the ambassador of Sahrawi in Nigeria

Once again, Muhammadu Buhari of Nigeria has despicably displayed another staggering brand of hypocrisy in one of his usual globetrots. He has countlessly proven that he is utterly incapable of discernment and therefore unfit for the position he is occupying. The mobile president has shown the world that his style of leadership is one lacking in purpose and vision, a leadership that adds no value because he has nothing to offer.

 Since his assumption into office, he has been malingering and gallivanting from one country to another with no perceivable purpose. He has continued the proverbial “rat-chase in a house being ravaged by an inferno”. With all the evidences that abound, one can no longer doubt Buhari’s radical Islamic bigotry even if he denies it, because he has time and again, proven to the world by his actions and inactions, that he is a chauvinistic primordial tyrant, who can neither accommodate an opposition nor tolerate other views different from his. A man like Buhari should not be allowed to smell the corridors of power in a secular entity like Nigeria because his dogmatic religious views and gestures are completely malevolent and catastrophic in nature.

Related article: FULL TEXT OF BUHARI'S SPEECH AT THE 70TH SESSION OF THE UNITED NATIONS GENERAL ASSEMBLY, SEP 2015

During the 70th session of the United Nations General Assembly, held on the 28th of September 2015, Buhari in his address, declared that Nigeria has remained committed towards upholding the same principles upon which the United Nation was founded, which include peaceful coexistence and self-determination. He also went further to point out that no one has the justification to deny any people freedom, speaking about the Palestinian question and that of the Western Sahara. In his words, “the unresolved question of self-determination for the Palestinian people and those of the western Sahara, both nations having been adjusted by the United Nations as qualifying for this inalienable right must now be assured and fulfilled without any further delay or obstacle.”

 He further explicitly stated thus, “…neither do we have the moral right to deny any people their freedom or condemn them indefinitely to occupation and blockade.” In a similar vein, on the 28th of February, Buhari expressed the same interest during one of his visits to Qatar by making it clear, his willingness to support the Palestinians, by calling for a 2-state solution for the problem in Palestine. Recently, he has equally expressed support for the Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic, SADR, by assuring them that Nigeria will stand by them in line with the AU’s resolution on their right to self-determination. He stated this on the 11th of March, as he received SADR’s Minister of foreign affairs – Mohammed Salem Salek, at the presidential villa in Abuja.

Related article: Buhari Back Western Sahara On Self Determination From Morroco
There is no doubt that everyone deserves the right to self-determination, we all acknowledge this fundamental fact of life and right as it concerns every people of the world. However, the problem is the hypocrisy that Buhari frequently displays, when he moves between countries and hangouts, preaching self-determination for other people but orders soldiers to eliminate Biafrans in Nigeria who are seeking for the exact same right. This is utterly nefarious and hypocritical. Buhari has again and again shown the world the height of his Islamic extremism and therefore should not be condoned.

 The world should not expect any meaningful achievement to come from Buhari as he is morally and mentally incapacitated. Apparently he still thinks he is a military junta and so he goes around the world without purpose, making careless comments without regard of its implications. Very recently, while in an interview on Aljazeera TV, he mentioned that he would not tolerate Biafra; this is completely malicious and obviously the height of his stupidity.

If Buhari supports self-determination for the Palestinian people because they are fellow Muslims, then orders his Islamic soldiers to exterminate Biafrans because they are Christians, does that not amount to animosity? If Buhari goes to the UN assembly to express support for the right to self-determination of the Palestinian people and the people of SADR who are fellow Arabs, then returns to Nigeria to kill Biafrans who are Christians and who are peacefully protesting for the same reason, wouldn’t that be cruelty in its heinous form?

If Buhari welcomes the people of SADR in the presidential villa and assures them of his total support towards their right to self-determination, then orders soldiers in Aba to kill peaceful Biafran-Christians having prayer sessions and who happen to be in the same plight as the people of SADR, does it not show that he is monstrous in nature? Why then should the world continue to listen to Buhari’s lies and pretentious plots while he continually eliminates innocent Biafrans who are peacefully protesting and simply seeking for their right to self-determination?

Related article: I WILL NOT TOLERATE BIAFRA ACCORDING TO BUHARI
How long shall we continue to wait for the UN to speak to the conscience of the Nigerian dictator cum president, letting him understand that he is actually demonizing what he is advocating for others? Is it not logical for UN and the world as a whole to tell Muhammadu Buhari to practice what he preaches, with respect to his hypocritical stance on self determination for other countries?  How long would the world pretend that Buhari is the man he claims to be even with all the evidences that abound? How long should the world listen to his lies before they prevail over him to end his atrocities and do the needful in order to alleviate the plight of Biafrans in the unfavourable union – Nigeria.

We are therefore calling on all people of goodwill around the world to intervene in this critical matter for an amicable resolution. Biafrans have respected and would continue to respect the principles upon which the United Nations was founded and therefore are calling on the United Nations to, as a matter of urgency, expedite action on the Biafran question. The Biafran question is peculiar and an age-long one at that, therefore we plead with the United Nations to live up to its creed and to prevent another possible catastrophe. We expect the United Nations to prove to Biafrans and indeed all the people around the world that its principles and policies as it affects religion and the people of the world, is not lopsided by giving the Biafran quest an urgent and scrupulous attention. There is no better time to do the right thing than now.

JUDGE TSOHO, DISGRACE TO JUSTICE

JUDGE TSOHO, DISGRACE TO JUSTICE

We will never get tired to disgrace the unfair justice against the leader of indigenous people of Biafra in person of Mr Nnamdi Kanu who is innocent in all ramifications.

justice Tsoho is a disgrace to justice because he has fully displayed his sabotage on justice. He justice Tsoho has murdered justice and buried it in no remorse to show as a professor.

on 19th February, he ruled out an application presented by the DSS to secretly try Nnamdi KANU
on 7th March, he Tsoho has also made a U turn to grant the application even without a new application. just take a look at this issues here, Tsoho granted two different rulings on the same case on the same accused person.

How will one be assured of a good judgement when a judge starts displaying such abnormal attitude towards an accused person? I want someone to tell me where and when such law was enshrined in the Nigerian constitution. if there is, it needs to be changed but if not, justice Tsoho should step off this case because we have lost confidence in his judgement.

Justice Tsoho should give room to justice and democracy because self determination is a universal law or better still, go and arrest the UN for signing in such law.

$1MILLION BRIBE: BUHARI AND DSS TAKES TO BRIBING LAWMAKERS, JUDGES AND JOURNALISTS

$1MILLION BRIBE: BUHARI AND DSS TAKES TO BRIBING LAWMAKERS, JUDGES AND JOURNALISTS

It is becoming scarier daily in this part of the world as the government that promised to fight corruption are now specialists in bribing their way through whatever they want. I wrote two different articles a few days ago on the bribing of journalists and the inconsistency in some judge's rulings, using Justice Tsoho as a case study.

Little did I know those were just preambles. Buhari just launched the introduction proper by offering bribes to Ekiti law makers to impeach governor Ayodele Fayose, for criticizing and countering his evil government.

The Ekiti State lawmakers and top government functionaries arrested by Buhari's DSS on Tuesday, the 8th of March alleged that they were offered a sum of $1million to impeach the governor, Ayodele Fayose.

The lawmakers stated that they are rather willing to spend the rest of their tenure or even life in DSS cell instead of teaming with the evil Buhari and his cohorts in this evil plot. They vowed never to have their hands stained with such grave evil against an innocent man whose only offence is speaking the mind of the suffering masses.

During a press conference today, the Chairman, House Committee on Information, Hon. Gboyega Aribisogan, disclosed that eight lawmakers had been visited by officials of the DSS and made financial inducement if they agree to the agenda.

What does Buhari understand "corruption" to mean? Is this not a good evidence to show that he has only been unleashing political vendetta rather than fight corruption so far? Can corruption fight corruption? With the bribing, disobedience to court orders, dictatorship, killing innocent citizens with the military, and jailing those who criticise these actions against their fundamental rights, I am forced to ask; What's going on? Which way is the zoo headed? Biafra is all we ask for.

Federal Government Wants To Eliminate Nnamdi Kanu

Federal Government wants to eliminate Nnamdi Kanu The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Tuesday, alleged of plots by the Federal Government to eliminate its detained leader, Nnamdi Kanu through the Department of State Services, DSS.
The group claimed that the plan would be perfected through a programmed motor accident on Kanu’s way to the court.

Mr. Emma Powerful, the IPOB’s head of media and publicity, who made the allegation said “the plan was perfected by the DSS and the FG to be executed by the prison authorities. “The IPOB intelligence were on the course and discovered why DSS accused the family of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, IPOB family of planning to kidnap the director of radio Biafra on his way to the Federal High Court.

“The IPOB worldwide family are calling on the international community, Amnesty International and all relevants human right organizations to take note and caution the FG and DSS; if anything happens to the leader of IPOB, we will not take it easy.

“For this reason, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu will not go to court again because his life is in danger, until adequate security is assured for his life. They want to claim that there was criminal attack on his way to the court.”

OBVIOUS INJUSTICE IN NNAMDI KANU'S TRIAL

OBVIOUS INJUSTICE IN NNAMDI KANU'S TRIAL Hon. Justice Tsoho is inappropriate, biased, and contradicting himself which is a clear prove to his partiality.

On the 19th of February, the headline on Justice Tsoho's ruling was; "Biafra: Court denies FG's appeal to secretly try Nnamdi Kanu" and on the 7th of March, the headline on the same same presided over by the same judge was; "Biafra: Witnesses to testify in secret" Different judgements on the same issue from the same judge in the same court on two different occasions. What does this tell you? This shows that there is a systematic plan to deny Mazi Nnamdi KANU Justice.

It was this same judge who denied Mazi Nnamdi Kalu bial on the reasons that Mazi Kanu was a threat to national security, secondly, that if released might commit the same offence again and thirdly, that there was a probability that Nnamdi Kanu might jump bail because he possessed dual citizenship. These were after Mazi Kanu had previously been granted bail on the same case. Justice Tsoho is obviously working for the FG and DSS, not just to overturn Mazi Kanu's bail but also to grant all the requests of the DSS. All he does is anything DSS and Buhari wants him to. DSS and Buhari is running the proceedings, not the judge. They, Buhari and DSS are also using the newspapers to put out wrong information. What they want to do is fake an attack on our leader Nnamdi Kanu's way to court, kill him in the process and claim IPOB was trying to snatch him. They had the nerve to lie to the newspapers that the reason they refused people entry into the court contrary to judge Tsoho's earlier ruling was because IPOB was planning an attack inside the same court. From the study of this judges rulings and performance so far, he is clearly playing a puppet in the hands of Buhari and his DSS. We shout so that the world will hear and see the injustice going on. To a great extent, I believe the world already see that. Written by Ken Pat

Enugu—The Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, yesterday welcomed the statement credited to President Muhammadu Buhari to the effect that Nigeria would not tolerate Biafra, pointing out that Biafra would also not tolerate Nigeria. Spokespersons of IPOB, Emma Mmezu and Dr Clifford Iroanya who spoke for the organisation in a statement entitled “Response to Ohanaeze and Buhari’s disparaging remarks about Biafra on Al Jazeera,” said: “We wish to reiterate for record purposes that our leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu has not mandated Ohanaeze or any  youth group to negotiate for his release. “The agitation for Biafra is a long and arduous process and the entire IPOB family all over the world understands this approach as espoused by our detained leader. 

Biafra protesters “We have not come to merely agitate, we have come to restore or die in the process. Some people think we are joking or can be easily dissuaded from this divine path that God-Chukwu Okike Abhiama has mandated us to follow. “Any negotiation on Biafra must be led by Nnamdi Kanu and nobody else. If roads, bridges and a few junior staff at Aso Rock are our problems as Biafrans, then IPOB worldwide can fund such infrastructural development alone and very soon, we shall do it. Our quest is Biafra- nothing more, nothing less. “On the issue of Buhari’s Aljazeera interview on Biafra, we welcome his comments because Biafra would not also tolerate Nigeria. Lord Lugard created Nigeria not Chukwu Okike Abhiama, God Almighty. So, like USSR, it will collapse. We, the IPOB Worldwide have decided not to go back on the quest for restoration of Biafra. Nigeria is not bigger than USSR just as Buhari is not stronger than Michael Gobachev. Buhari can kill Biafrans as he did during the 1967 to 1970 civil war, but this time, it will not be the same.” Meantime, a palpable trepidation is rife in the South-East geopolitical zone following yesterday’s warning from the Movement for the Actualization of the Sovereign State of Biafra, MASSOB, and the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, directing all Fulani herdsmen engaged in pastoral activities to retreat to the northern part of the country as their safety can longer be guaranteed. 

The pro-Biafra groups said it has become imperative for the Fulani herdsmen to leave the region as it can no longer, ”tolerate the systematic killing of our people and invasion of our land in the name of cattle grazing.” In a statement signed and made available to newsmen in Enugu yesterday, MASSOB Leader, Uchenna Madu, revealed that it has mobilized its allies to ensure that its directive was heeded. According to Madu, ”we can no longer tolerate the systematic killing of our people and invasion of our land in the name of cattle grazing. Seventy per cent of Fulani herdsmen in the eastern region are Northern-trained secret army assigned for devastation and secret killing of Biafrans. “MASSOB in collaboration with IPOB and other affiliates have vowed to protect Biafra land with enthusiastic spirit and  motivation  from foreign invaders in any disguise. As we have resolved to protect Biafra land, we warn Arewa secret army in disguise as Fulani herdsmen to concentrate on grazing with their cows as any further attack on our people shall be squarely returned.” On the actualization of Biafra, MASSOB leader described President Muhammadu Buhari’s stance on the futility of Biafra secession from Nigeria as the,”ranting of a frustrated man who has lost major focus on international/diplomatic politics. “The level of Biafra actualization has gone beyond Buhari’s imagination and comprehension.

Buhari Throws Support Behind Palestine and NO to Biafra

President Muhammadu Buhari has declared his total support for a two-state solution to the Israel-Palestine conflict.

The Nigerian President stated this during a meeting on Sunday with the Emir of Qatar, Tamim Bin Hammad Al-Thani, his spokesperson, Femi Adesina, said.

“I want to assure you that we will stand side by side with you, until our brothers and sisters in Palestine achieve their desired objectives,” he said.
“Our support for various Security Council resolutions restoring and respecting 1967 boundaries with Jerusalem as capital of Palestine is firm and unshaken.”

Buhari has been highly critical of the IPOB and MASSOB, two groups that have been very vocal about the secession of the South East and South South geopolitical zones to a new country, Biafra, from Nigeria.

Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the IPOB has been kept in the custody of the Federal Government's special police, DSS, for months despite several court orders to release him.

The leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) Nnamdi Kanu was in court today for the continuation of his trial

The Nigerian government has asked a Federal High Court in Abuja to conduct a secret trial to cross-examine witnesses in the ongoing case of alleged treasonable felony and other charges against leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu.

– The leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) Nnamdi Kanu was in court today for the continuation of his trial

– Kanu went into the courtroom with his handcuffs on, refusing to take them off

The Federal High Court on Tuesday, February 9, stood down the trial of the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) Nnamdi Kanu.

The judge over the case, John Tsoho on entering the court said the matter will be stood down till 12pm.

“I am sorry the case has been stood down for other matters to be attended to,” Tsoho said.

Meanwhile, kanu who appeared in court in white brocade threaded with silver embroidery had gone into the courtroom on handcuffs.

A rare sight as prison officials always remove handcuffs from accused persons in the premises before they are allowed into the courtrooms.

He was also denied bail on submissions that would escape trial being in possession of a British passport and that the allegations against him are grave and a threat to national security.

The judge added that the rights of an individual does not supersede the peace and security of a nation.

The court reduced an application by Kanu for the release of his passports.

Kanu’s lawyer, Chuks Muoma had asked the court to release some documents belonging to his defendant.

Muoma had in an application prayed the court to release money and two passports – Nigerian and British – collected from the first defendant (Kanu) upon his arrest. He also objected to the application for a secret trial of his client.

But the judge, Tsoho in his ruling said the application lacked merit.

Tsoho said: “There is no doubt that the accused have been charged before this court. It is erroneous to say that application for the release of these documents should not be made to this court.”

The judge however said that Muoma’s submission that evidences not listed on the charge can be returned to the accused person.

Quoting Diri, the judge said it is a mere conjecture by the defense to say that these evidences will not be used by the court.

He added that such applications can come after the prosecution has ended its case thereby allowing the defense to open their case.

The court further rejected the application for the release of the documents and adjourned the case to Friday, February 19 for hearing on the application on secret trial.

Kanu is facing charges of treasonable felony by the State Security Services (SSS).

Buhari: almost certain to face ICC

Click to download the ICC case file

Since, Friday, January 29, 2016, the hearts of many Biafrans have been gladdened by the news that their international lawyers have received acknowledgement of their complaint to the International Criminal Court (ICC) at The Hague.

The complaint was about atrocities of Muhammadu Buhari, President of Nigeria, for the torture and murder of Biafrans protesting against the illegal detention of their leader, Nnamdi Kanu by his Police and military personnel. Apart from being the leader of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Kanu is also the Director of Radio Biafra, and has been peacefully campaigning vigorously for the independence of Biafra with his radio.

The acknowledgment letter, which was signed by Mark P, Dillion, Head of Information and Evidence Unit at the Office of the Prosecutor at ICC, read: “The office of prosecutor of the International Criminal Court acknowledges the receipt of your document/letter.”

In the letter with reference number OTP.CR.3816, Dillion explained that the document/letter had “been duly entered in the Communication Registrar of the Office”. He went on to promise that the document/letter would be given consideration, as appropriate, in accordance with provisions of the Rome Statute of the ICC.

In the letter that was addressed to the lawyers of IPOB, Goran Sluiter and Leonard Ndubuisi, Dillion explained further that the decision to investigate the case had not been reached, nor investigations commenced. But promised that as soon as decision was made, “we will inform you in writing, provide you with reasons for this decision” he concluded.

For the joyful Biafrans, taking Buhari to the ICC will not only make Buhari to suffer for his sins. They believe that it would also present a first time opportunity for the world to have a glimpse of the killing-field that Nigerian had been, and which the British governments have been concealing since 1914.

To the Biafrans, it would not only present an opportunity to see the atrocities of Buhari, who they liken as a “smaller thief”, but also that of others that could be termed “bigger thieves”. The “bigger thieves” according to them are the likes of Yakubu Gowon, former coup plotter and war-time military head of state, who is rated the world’s 14th deadliest dictator in recent history.

For the Biafrans also, it would present an opportunity for the world to learn of the true Olusegun Obasanjo, a former war-time commander and military head of state – the “genocidist” that ordered the extermination of Odi town in Biafraland. Of course, they also hold the belief that the world would learn of Theophilus Danjuma as well – the one who executed Gowon’s counter coup of 1967, and is described as the ‘butcher in Ibadan’ for murdering his commander in chief in the most gruesome manner. They believe also that the underbelly of Ibrahim Babangida, the former Nigerian ruthless military president, would also be exposed.

Biafrans who spoke with Family Writers, also believe that other terrible (but dead) murderers in Nigeria that the world has not heard of like Benjamin Adekunle of the Third Marine Commando, known also as black scorpion, would be exposed; and Murtala Mohammed the Central Bank robber at Benin, who also committed mass murderer at Asaba, in the now Delta State.

However, Buhari’s case is somewhat different, for which Biafrans expect him to suffer. He is among the few, like Obasanjo, who extended their brutality and evil after the Biafra/Nigeria war, boasting about it and how much they were prepared to do it again.  Buhari is known to have boasted before the 2015 election that the reason Igbo-Biafrans do not support him was because he killed them during the war, and that if the need arises that he would kill them again.

It therefore, did not surprise Biafrans when, two weeks after being sworn in last year, he sent the Airforce planes to bomb Cross River and Akwa Ibom states, claiming to be hunting kidnappers. But it was poor villagers that were killed. He followed it up with the murder of a young shoe-maker at Ariara Market in Aba, Abia State. On Sunday, August 30, 2015, his men – Police and Navy – shot, maimed and killed Biafrans on evangelism to promote Biafra. Since then it has been murders and maiming all the way, especially after his abduction of Nnamdi Kanu, and his followers protesting against the illegality.

At the moment, Biafrans are happy as they note that those who committed atrocities against their people, like Buhari, are facing the music at the ICC. For instance, Laurent Gbagbo, former head of state of Cote d’Ivoire, is already at ICC at The Hague, answering to criminal charges of crimes committed against his own people. Charles Taylor, former Liberian dictator is already serving his jail-term for his own atrocities, while Sudanese President Umar Bashir has so far evaded arrest as a result of his incumbency.

This is the sad commentary of a group of individuals who call themselves leaders of their people, but have conducted themselves as alien invaders of the people they were meant to protect.  Now, Biafrans are elated that Muhammadu Buhari, Nigerian President, is almost certain to face charges at ICC if he makes it alive from his hospital bed where he is at the moment.
