FG Has No Case Against Nnamdi Kanu – IPOB

The Indigenous People of Biafra has rejected the further court trial of its leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu.

The IPOB’s spokesman, Emma Powerful recently had his say via a press statement, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to him, it is funny how the same Federal Government that is prosecuting Mazi Nnamdi Kanu refused to make an appearance at the same Abuja High Court hearing on February 8, 2024, and that is further proof that they have no case against Nnamdi Kanu.

He added that IPOB stands by the judgment of the Appeal Court which ordered that Kanu should not be tried again in any Nigerian court.

It read, “Sadly, the same Federal Government that is prosecuting Mazi Nnamdi Kanu is refusing to make an appearance at the same Abuja High Court hearing on February 8, 2024.

The refusal of the Federal Government to appear in the court on that day for continuation of their trial is evident that they do not have a case against Kanu.

We stand by the judgment of the Appeal Court, which ordered that our leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu should not be tried again in any Nigerian court. The Supreme Court Judges agreed with them but lacked the courage and integrity to uphold the Appeal Court judgment.

IPOB leadership has reviewed the actions of the Federal Government and the judiciary and totally rejected further trial of our leader in the High Court. They know very well that they have no case against him.

The FG is just utilising the weak instrumentality of the law in Nigeria to detain and persecute Kanu indefinitely. The wicked persecution of Kanu and other innocent IPOB members will continue to destroy Nigeria’s image locally and internationally?

We are interested in the self-preservation of Biafrans from marauding terrorists. Biafra liberation is a divine project that not even former President Muhammadu Buhari nor anyone else can stop its actualisation.

IPOB has come to restore Biafra, and it is either Biafra or Biafra. That is our oath of allegiance to the Biafra Nation and our oath of honour to all those who have fallen in the course of our match to freedom.”
