Nigerian DSS Arrest Nnamdi Kanu on October 2015 ./ Protest around the World Part Three (3)
Meet The British MPs Who Want The UK To Support Biafra
Meet the members of parliament (MPs) who have tabled a bill in the British parliament calling for the UK to recognise Biafra as an independent country.
An early day parliamentary motion was filed by MPs Tom Elliott and Danny Kinahan of the Ulster Unionist Party (UPP), ironically a party dedicated to preserving the territorial integrity of the UK.
The motion is that this “House recognises the calls for the independence of territories that constituted the Biafran republic.”
“The Biafran issue could be improved with the co-operation of the Nigerian government by offering a referendum; and urges the Foreign and Commonwealth Office to use its diplomatic strength to assist in the resolution of this matter.”
Elliott is a former British army officer who served during the conflict in Northern Ireland. He is a staunch opponent of Irish unification and gay rights and is a former leader of the UUP. He is married with two children.
THE MYSTRY OF BIAFRA…Ordained By God, Revealed 400 years ago…Biafra times |
The rising and setting of the sun is an unbroken ordinance of God: no one can prevent the sun from running its course. For, the sun is like a champion rejoicing to run his course. It rises from one end of the heavens and follows its course to the other end. Nothing can hide from its heat (Psalm 19: 5-6). So, will the Rising Sun of Biafra, which many Nigerian military dictators gleefully declared as being set forever, rise again? Is the Rising Sun of Biafra breaking upon the Trigger of the African Continent? “The sun rises and sets, then hurries around to rise again” (Ecclesiastes 1:5). Did the man who was said to have “Seen tomorrow” see the Sun of Biafra rising? A piece of information volunteered by Mr. Francis Anyibe through his e-mail address, franco76@onebox.com, indicates that Nostradamus actually saw the Rising Sun of Biafra. Read his mail: “If you are among those who presume that the Rising Sun of Biafra is set forever, you better had a rethink. Reason? A perceptive exploration of the predictions and prophecies of “the man who saw tomorrow”,
Nostradamus, revealed a marvelous prophetic inevitability of Biafra as a sovereign, strong, separate nation. Nostradamus, the 16th century famed Jewish- French doctor predicted over 400 years back, that “A Powerful Prince will arise in the world at the Trigger of the Gun. He will be the envy of other princes. They (the other princes) will try to subdue his rise but all will be a failure. “An insight into this prediction reveals that the Trigger of the Gun is at the position of the yet- to-be-actualized Biafra Republic, and that Nostradamus’ Powerful Prince will come from this gestate republic—Biafra. It is noteworthy to recall that at the discovery of the African Continent, the name initially given to it was “The Gun”, because of its semblance to the shape of a gun.
“Looking at the map of Africa, Biafra (bordered and deriving its name from the Bight of Biafra) is at the position of the Trigger of the African Gun – geographically speaking. It then follows that the Nostradamus’ predicted-powerful Prince will come from Biafra land. “And how can that Prince arise without a sovereign Biafra State in place? What this translates into is that a sovereign Biafra is inevitable. It is as certain as “day following night,” Mr. Anyibe concluded One proven fact about Nostradamus’ predictions and prophecies is, they hardly fail. He prophesied the coming of the first and second presumed anti-Christ – Napoleon and Hitler. He equally “saw” the Arabian prince wearing a blue turban who became a terror unto Europe and America – Osama Bin laden. This came to past equally.So, could it be that the Rising Sun of the Christian Democratic Republic of Biafra (CDRB) is breaking upon us? Is the Christian Democratic Republic of Biafra (CDRB) actually the Trigger of the geographical Guntil called Africa
We shall see! Christian Democratic Republic of Biafra [CDRB]; a nation designed in Heaven; chosen for world mission Break-up of Nigeria: What the prophets are saying! By Martin Ben-TZION “Let two or three prophets speak, and let the others evaluate what is said.” —I Corinthians 14:29 (NLT). As the scriptures say, “The facts of every case must be established by the testimony of two or three witnesses.”—2 Corinthians 13:1 (NLT) Record shows that even though all the Nigerian prophets who published their 2005[ the year the United States predicted that Nigeria would become a failed state by 2015] prophesies spoke diversely and divergently, there is one recurrent issue in their prophecies. And that is, a star that would arise and shine in the midst of the darkness that would engulf Nigeria.
Enoch Adeboye of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) spoke of this star: “A star shall begin its rise through thick and thin.“A star rising through thick and thin means a star shining out of a darkness. Could be the Rising Sun of the Christian Democratic Republic of Biafra [CDRB]? The rising and setting of the sun is an unbroken ordinance of God: no one can prevent the sun from running its course. For, the sun is like a champion rejoicing to run his course. It rises at one end of the heavens and follows its course to the other end. Nothing can hide from its heat (Psalm 19: 5-6). So, will the Rising Sun of Biafra, which many a Nigerian military dictator gleefully declared as being set forever, rise again? Is the Rising Sun of Biafra breaking upon the Trigger of the African Continent? “The Sun rises and the sun sets, then hurries around to rise again” (Ecclesiastes 1:5). The velvet hammer of the Nigerian Pentecostal Movement Dr Tunde Bakare of the Latter Rain Assembly corroborates Adeboye’s prophecy.
According to Tunde Bakare, he was shown a massive giant in a vision. The giant looked like 1,000 water tanks built up together, and it was moving inside and outside of Aso Rock. Pastor Bakare said that that giant whose name was revealed in the spirit to be “Anarchy” was walking about intimidating and terrifying people. “Then all of a sudden,” Bakare continued, “The giant entered a high street, and there was this little boy who refused to be intimidated by that massive giant. The little boy refused to move. He just stood like that. He did not say a word. He just pointed a finger and the giant collapsed. Out of the collapsed giant, came a terrible dust so thick that it began to blow like a wind, like a wind is blowing it. Every man that had bowed to that massive giant became blind by that dust. It was just entering their eyes and they became blind. And I was saying, ‘Lord, who will open their eyes?’. They remained blind. Then I saw a very tiny star, and it began to glow, until it engulfed the entire city. And God said to me, ‘The plague is over, the overflow has begun! When the disaster begins to hit, when the disaster begins to hit, the star will begin to shine”’, Pastor Bakare prophesied.
In unmistakable terms, that giant that collapsed is the demonic principality in charge of the Nigerian amalgamation. That demonic principality is the prince of the Niger. The collapse of that principality in the realm of the spirit signaled the demise of the terrestrial polity it sustained— Nigeria. And we all know that Nigeria has been delusively described as the Giant of Africa, when in essence it is a walking anarchy. That is why the name of that massive giant was given in the spiritual realm as Anarchy, that is, Lawlessness. Prophet Ekong James Ituen of Christ Deliverance Ministries, Lagos, said, “There is a danger ahead of Nigeria. Nigeria is sick and the sickness is not unto life.” What Prophet Ituen said in essence is that the demise of the giant called Nigeria is a foregone conclusion, spiritually speaking. Since the sickness is not unto life, it is unto death. Requiem for Nigeria can as well begin immediately!
Before Citizen Nnamdi Kanu Goes The Way Of Muhammed Yusuf (1) By Southeast Based Coalition Of Human Rights Organizations (SBCHROs) (Onitsha Nigeria, 2nd December 2015)-We, the leaderships of the Southeast based Coalition of Human Rights Organizations; comprising the International Society for Civil Liberties & the Rule of Law (Intersociety), Anambra State Branch of the Civil Liberties Organization (CLO), the Center for Human Rights & Peace Advocacy (CHRPA), Human Rights Club(HRC) (a project of LRRDC), Southeast Good Governance Forum (SGGF), Forum for Equity, Justice & Defense of Human Rights (FEJDHR), Society Advocacy Watch Project (SPAW), Anambra Human Rights Forum (AHRF), the International Solidarity for Peace & Human Rights Initiative (INTERSOLIDARITY) and the Street Law Africa (LawAfrica) are deeply worried and concerned that Citizen Nnamdi Kanu may mostly likely go the way of late Muhammed Yusuf. It is recalled that late Muhammed Yusuf was the leader of the Boko Haram terror group who was arrested alive by the Nigerian Army during the July/August 2009 Boko Haram uprising in northern Nigeria and taken into the custody of the Nigeria Police Force, from where he was murdered in cold blood or killed extra judicially. The consequences of that dastardly act by the country’s security forces led to sharp rise or increase in the spate of terrorism activities by the violent group; which has remained untamed till date. Nigeria till date holds the world record in extra judicial and unlawful killings. It was also recently declared the third most terrorized country in the world after Afghanistan and Iraq and seconded only by Syria and Pakistan. Nigeria, through its political leaders and security establishments; also notoriously disrespects human rights and desecrates human dignity and lives. Controversies surrounding the reported killing in action of 139 soldiers on 19th and 22nd November 2015 in Borno State, Northeast Nigeria by the Boko Harm terror group; have continued to surge. While 105 soldiers were reported to have been massmurdered on 19th November, 34 others were also reported to have been killed three days later (22nd November). Despite strong and steady reports on the sad development by credible independent or open sources; backed by pieces of pictorial evidence; the country’s military authorities and the Presidency have kept on denying, saying; no soldiers went missing in action. The denial has not been accompanied by any strong and credible official investigation and its outcome till date. These records of infamy attained by Nigeria have continuously worsened under the Buhari’s Presidency. The Criminal Justice Administration under President Muhammadu Buhari administration is at its worst state. As recently as 10th November 2015, Hon Justice Adeniyi Ademola of the Federal High Court Six in Abuja issued a judicial license through an ex-parte (one sided) order; to the authorities of the DSS to detain Citizen Nnamdi Kanu for ninety (90) days for the phantom purpose of investigating him for terrorism and terrorism financing. The consequence of the kangaroo order is that: the DSS has been judicially licensed to torture, detain incommunicado and slam trumped up charges against the non violent self determination campaigner. As we write, Citizen Nnamdi Kanu is undergoing excruciating torture both physically and mentally in the hands of his DSS captors. Part of psychological or mental torture being so inflicted is total denial of access to his lawyers, family and doctors. His lead-Counsel, Barr Egechukwu V. Obetta told our Coalition last night that all judicial and administrative efforts he made to see his client (Citizen Nnamdi Kanu) before and after his last court appearance on 23rd November 2015 have been blocked and frustrated by the DSS; particularly following the kangaroo court order; which the DSS now uses as a license and an excuse. Citizen Nnamdi Kanu’s access to his family and doctors has also been blocked and denied by the DSS. Nigeria holds world record of torture and other cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment or punishment. The country’s security forces and intelligence establishments are notorious in using torture to extract or obtain confessional statements especially when it comes to trumped up charges or spurious criminal accusations such as terrorism and terrorism financing; under which the DSS fabricated an affidavit and secured a kangaroo order or license to detain and interrogate (torture) Citizen Nnamdi Kanu. From every indication, Citizen Nnamdi Kanu is most likely undergoing physical and mental torture in the hands of his DSS captors. During his last court appearance on 23rd November 2015, he looked frail, physically and mentally depressed and was disallowed to speak publicly. We wish to warn that the consequences and tragedies that will befall Nigeria should Citizen Nnamdi Kanu go the way of late Muhammed Yusuf will be generationally untamed and unquenchable. The Buhari administration and its DSS as the present managers of the life, liberty and death of Citizen Nnamdi Kanu must be reminded that should he die naturally or unnaturally in their hands, the culpability of his death shall inescapably and inexcusably be in their hands and no amount of medical theorizing or posthumous arguments or excuses will fly or exonerate them from his custodial death if he dies under torture or other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment. It is therefore extremely important to inform all Nigerians and members of the international community that the DSS is most likely torturing Citizen Nnamdi Kanu physically or mentally for the purpose of forcing or compelling him under duress to reveal and admit being (a) sponsored by leading Igbo politicians (who he is being coerced to name); (b) a terrorist; and (c) involved in terrorism financing. Involvement in terrorism and terrorism financing is a capital offense punishable under the Terrorism Prevention Act of 2011 (as amended in 2013) by death and life imprisonment respectively. Nigeria under the military regime of Major Gen Muhammadu Buhari (as he then was) in 1984 to 1985 was notorious in using trumped up charges and retroactive criminal legislations to arrest and detain the opponents of the maximum military regime for months and years without fair judicial trial and fair judicial conviction. Trumped up charges and retroactive criminal charges are prohibited by the 1999 Constitution and the African Charter on Human & Peoples Rights of 1981, ratified and domesticated by Nigeria in 1983; yet the present Buhari civilian administration has defiantly resuscitated them in fragrant violation of the country’s mother law and the international treaties. For the records, it is trumped up charges or fraudulently concocted charges, for instance, when a citizen is caught wandering, but arrested, detained and accused or charged for armed robbery (i.e. night arrests by police); or when a citizen is caught holding or suspected of being in a possession of firearm possibly with or without license; but get arrested, detained and accused of treasonable felony (i.e. Sambo Dasuki); or when a citizen is arrested and detained unlawfully for expressing his political thoughts without use or advocating for violence; but arrested, detained and accused of involvement in terrorism and terrorism financing( i.e. Citizen Nnamdi Kanu). In other words, they are lesser alleged criminal acts or omissions of the citizens over-bloated and substituted with charges of commission of higher criminal acts or omissions; for the purpose of holding or detaining the citizens in longer or perpetual confinement through long pretrial custody detention or Holden Charge. These have been responsible for the country’s monumental failure in investigatory and prosecutorial criminal justice; to the extent that most of the criminal charges brought against the accused citizens cannot stand in judicial trials owing to want of pieces of indictable and convictable evidence. It is also substantially responsible for the country’s swelling number of awaiting trial inmates or detainees in the country’s prisons and other custodial establishments. Further, by the United Nations Convention Against Torture & Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatments or Punishment of 10th December 1984, ratified by Nigeria on 28th June 2001; Torture means any act by which severe pain or suffering, whether physical or mental, is intentionally inflicted on a person for such purposes as obtaining from him or a third person information or a confession, punishing him for an act he or a third person has committed or is suspected of having committed, or intimidating or coercing him or a third person, or for any reason based on discrimination of any kind, when such pain or suffering is inflicted by or at the instigation of or with the consent or acquiescence of a public official or other person acting in an official capacity. It does not include pain or suffering arising only from, inherent in or incidental to lawful sanctions (i.e. execution of court sentence). In all these, the tragic history of former Yugoslavia is still fresh in the memories of all and sundry. The peaceful and non violent political agitation for right to self determination by the Indigenous People of Biafra and millions of its supporters is not Nigeria’s main headache or threat to its volatile statehood; rather the greatest threat facing the country is its current Presidency, which has gone gaga in deployment of its coercive powers or violence against its people. This was exactly the case in former Yugoslavia under Slobodan Milosevic until he plunged his country into bloody civil war that led to its violent fragmentation into six war and starvation stricken statehoods. The sad history of former Yugoslavia is replicating itself under the Buhari’s Presidency. The greatest threat to Nigeria’s statehood is its Department of the State Security Services. Torturing Citizen Nnamdi Kanu to confess or admit being involved in phantom terrorism and terrorism financing; likewise coercing him to rope in innocent Igbo politicians as sponsors and financiers of the phantom terrorism and terrorism financing, is the height of intelligence crudity, failure and infantilism on the part of DSS. Labeling innocent, peaceful and nonviolent political self determination campaigners or agitators as terrorists and terrorist organization (via affidavit deposed to by DSS before the Federal High Court Six in Abuja); amounts to collective punishment against the people of the Southeast zone for being law abiding and using peaceful means to register home their grievances against the Federation of Nigeria. The implication of searching for leaders, members and funders of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) is that the DSS should locate them in their overseas bases comprising over 80 countries where they are registered, recognized and domiciled; and begin to arrest and deport every citizen of the Southeast resident in overseas. It also means that the DSS should advise its general overseer (President Muhammadu Buhari) to build more prisons with more than three million inmate capacities to accommodate the arrested members of the IPOB and citizens of the Southeast Nigeria resident in overseas. The modern theory of violence clearly indicates that monopolization of violence by State authorities is waned and out-fashioned; likewise modern theories of security and warfare, which have also moved into the hands of non State actors. Same thing goes to human rights violation that is now common among non State actors and State actors as well. All lovers of democracy, rule of law and civil liberties must call the Buhari Presidency to order before it plunges the country into violence of intractable proportion. Embarking on maximum deployment of State coercive powers and violence and indiscriminate resort to use of trumped up charges to haunt and hurt the lives, liberties and safeties of the Nigerian citizens of critical mindsets is a compound threat to the country’s fragile statehood and the entire population. All hands must be on deck to save Nigeria from becoming another bloody Yugoslavia in the hands of the Buhari’s civilian presidency. Nigerians must rise up and say no to abuse of office and illegitimate use of State force against innocent citizens of the land. In the concluding part of this publication of ours, we shall demystify or un-bottle the Terrorism Prevention Act of 2011 amended in 2013 and expose its gross incoherence with the 1999 Constitution and the African Charter on Human & Peoples Rights ratified and domesticated by Nigeria in 1983. Specifically, the incoherence of the Act with the Chapter Four (Fundamental Human Rights) of the 1999 Constitution and relevant Articles of the African Charter on Human & Peoples Rights will be highlighted. The inconsistency and incoherence of the provisions of the Terrorism Prevent Act with the present unconstitutional conducts of the DSS leading to labeling of Citizen Nnamdi Kanu and his IPOB as terrorist group and terrorism financier will also be exposed.

Kanu's Case: Catholic Bishop Kukah Gives
Advise To FG
Matthew Kukah,
the catholic bishop of Sokoto Diocese, has insisted that pro-Biafra
activists are entitled to the freedom of expression and gave advise to the
Nigerian government in this regard.
The cleric made
his position known on Friday, December 11, in a university of Osun
state where he delivered a convocation lecture, Vanguard reports.
He therefore advised
the federal government to cooperate with Nnamdi Kanu, the
charismatic Radio Biafra director, instead of prosecuting him.
Kukah added
that no Nigerian politician could mobilise such a huge number of
supporters like Kanu without even any inducement. Recall that Kanu’s
detention was followed by mass protest across the globe.
“This country
cannot continue this way. The Movement for the Sovereign State of Biafra
(MASSOB) has the right to seek Biafra since we have freedom of expression. The
problem of Nigeria should not be with Kanu but with those who let the door
open.
“The president of
Nigeria or any governor, unless he pays, cannot bring the number of people that
Kanu brought out. The anxiety of Nigeria should be that a young man (Kanu)
who can bring out this great number of people is worth doing business with.”

Activist accuses Buhari of turning Nigeria into dictatorship
Friday, 11 December 2015
Nigerian President, Muhammadu Buhari, has been accused of turning Nigeria’s 16 years old democracy into a dictatorship in just six months of coming to power.
The observation was made yesterday by Ibuchukwu Ezike, Executive Director of Civil Liberties Organisation, the country’s foremost human rights group, who spoke with Biafra Media Forum in Lagos State, Nigeria. According to him dictatorship occurs when agents and agencies of government begin to do the bidding of the leader against the dictates and demands of the law.
His words: “What is happening in the country today is a tendency to do things the way the leaders want, and not in conformity to the law of the land and international mechanisms approved by the United Nations and the African Union, among others.”
He gave examples with the detention of Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra and Director of Radio Biafra, and Dasuki, Nigeria’s former Security Adviser, which were done in flagrant disregard to court orders.
Speaking specifically of Nnamdi Kanu, he said: “There is the case of Nnamdi Kanu, the Director of Radio Biafra and leader of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), who was detained in disobedience to a court order by the Nigerian authority. He was granted bail and all the conditions of bail were met, but as we speak, the young man is still under detention by Nigerian authorities.”
He advised however, that if protests and due legal processes failed, that the only option to any people would be to go international with their grievances. He expressed the belief that Nigeria is not an island on itself and therefore would not go against international instruments or pressure. “If the local options available to the people are exhausted, they can look for options beyond the country. I think that is the best way to go about it” he said.
He went on to express the opinion that if any agent of government is legally proven to have taken laws into his hands to kill unarmed protesters, that such an individual should be brought to book. His words: “If there were cases established by independent missions that there were excessive use of force against Nigerian citizens, or that the right of citizens were greatly undermined, or that crime against humanity had been established, then the law should take its course.”

KANU HOLDS THE UNITY OF NIGERIA, IF HE DIES NIGERIA WILL BREAK – TB JOSHUA
Prophet TB Joshua has made a shocking statement about the country’s situation, as regards to the trouble in North via Boko haram, the agitation in the East and Buhari’s anti corruption campaign that has affected the big wigs in Nigeria. According to our source the Prophet declared thatif Nnamdi KANU or any of this men being denied their right dies, Nigeria will break. The man of God advised the present government to tread with care.

It's all very clear that arrest of Nnamdi Kanu is a sign of cluelessness, the
continued detention is nothing but trying to justify mistake which would get
messier by day. The more Nnamdi Kanu is held is the more Biafra restoration
gains momentum, in no distant time Nigerians will stone Buhari for causing or
restoring Biafra through illegally detaining Nnamdi Kanu. Had Nnamdi Kanu not
been arrested, Biafra will be on a debating level within Nigeria, Nnamdi Kanu
will keep on talking can talk restore Biafra? Many people will argue that his
talking alone can restore Biafra but I personally don't buy it.
Before Nigeria wakes up and find out they are detaining the prime minister of Republic of Biafra, they must do something for the future or else Nigeria will be cast into abyss. Many Nigerians will say war, we will kill them but I wonder how you will kill a people with the support of UK, France, Russia, Israel and America. Its high time Nigeria stopped dreaming and do the needful, they can't hold Nnamdi Kanu and expect thanks or support of the world for the violation of human right. Nigeria has exhausted the legal option she has and choosing the path of dictatorship is a deadly move, after the restoration of Biafra, Nigeria might find it hard to live diplomatically with republic of Biafra, Africa needs extensive reasoning and this is why Nigeria must start preparing how to partner with republic of Biafra. If the constituted government is announced and finish their meeting with UN, it might be too late for Nigeria to right her wrongs or diplomatically follow Biafra agitation. Nigerian government has not asked question on why UN has not openly said Biafra is not ripe for independence as UN said in the case of Catalonia.
The silence is simply "yes" to Biafra restoration, you will start
seeing it very soon. Before Nigerian government detain the prime Minister of
Republic of Biafra, they must do quickly and release Nnamdi Kanu, re-strategize
and face Nnamdi Kanu squarely, come out and tell him reasons Biafra cannot be;
then superior reasons will prevail. I want to use this medium to remind
Nigerian government that continued detention of Nnamdi Kanu is part of the
strategy to the restoration of Biafra. People and the world are calling for the
release of Nnamdi Kanu because there is a growing fear he might be murdered by
Nigerian government which would plunge everyone into untold war. Before you
detain the prime minister of Republic of Biafra, do the needful.
AS THE QUEST FOR OUR UNNEGOTIABLE FREEDOM HEATS UP, OUR ATTITUDE CONTINUES TO REMAIN THAT OF CONSISTENCY & RELENTLESSNESS! WE ARE HEADING ONCE AGAIN TO THE DOORS OF THE CREATOR OF THE ZOO IN DÃœSSELDORF!! ALL BIAFRANS IN AND AROUND GERMANY MUST BE PART OF THIS PRESSURE ON THE BRITISH EVIL EMPIRE!! SHOW YOUR RESILIENCE AND FOLLOW UP THE DIRECTIONS ON THE FLYER!!! BE THERE!! GOD BLESS BIAFRA!!!

Unconstitutional Laws & Court Orders On Rampage: Why We Dragged Hon Justice Adeniyi Ademola To NJC Over Nnamdi Kanu
By International Society For Civil Liberties & the Rule Of Law: Supported By SBCHROs
(Onitsha Nigeria, 14th December 2015)-The leadership of International Society for Civil Liberties & the Rule of Law (Intersociety); supported by other ten members of the Southeast based Coalition of Human Rights Organizations (SBCHROs) have dragged Hon Justice Adeniyi Ademola of Court Six of the Federal High Court, Abuja Division to the National Judicial Council (NJC) through its chairman, Hon Justice Mahmud Mohammed (CJN); over his unsatisfactory and unconstitutional roles in consideration and issuance of a highly controversial and unconstitutional order for perpetual detention of Citizen Nnamdi Kanu in the guise of “investigating him for offenses of terrorism and terrorism financing”. We also wrote the Attorney General of the Federation & Minister for Justice, Mallam Abubakar Malami, SAN, drawing his immediate attention to the gross inconsistency of Section 27 (1) of the Terrorism Prevention Act of 2011 as amended; with Section 35 (4) (a) (b) of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, under right to personal liberty; for the purpose of sending an executive bill to the National Assembly for immediate repealing or expunging of the unconstitutional provision in the said Terror Act of 2011 as amended.
Our writing the duo of the NJC and the AGF is in recognition of powers and functions accorded them by the 1999 Constitution.We had in the letter, dated 13th of December 2015 and referenced: Intersociety/NG/12/015/002/NJC/AGF/FGN, drawn their attention to relevant Sections of the 1999 Constitution; upon which the gross inconsistency of Section 27 (1) of the Terrorism Prevention Act and the controversial court detention order were found brazenly and rapaciously unconstitutional or grossly incoherent with the 1999 Constitution. Some of the Constitutional provisions under reference are Section 1 (1) that states “this Constitution is supreme and its provisions shall have binding force on all authorities and persons throughout the Federal Republic of Nigeria”; Section 1 (3): “if any other law is inconsistent with the provisions of this Constitution, the Constitution shall prevail and that other law shall to the extent of the inconsistency be void”.
The letter was signed by Emeka Umeagbalasi (Board Chairman), Obianuju Igboeli, Esq. (Head, Civil Liberties & Rule of Law Program) and Chinwe Umeche, Esq. (new Head, Democracy & Good Governance Program) and supported by other members of the Southeast Based Coalition of Human Rights Organizations (SBCHROs). A copy of the letter is attached for full details. Others are Section 4 (5) of the same Constitution that directs: “if any law enacted by the House of Assembly of a State is inconsistent with any law validly made by the National Assembly, the law made by the National Assembly shall prevail and that other law shall to the extent of the inconsistency be void”. Further references were made to the Supreme Court of Nigeria’s landmark judgment in Abacha and Others v Fawehinmi (2001) AHRLR 172 (NgSC 2000); which ruled that “the African Charter on Human & Peoples Rights (ACHPR) is domestically enforceable, with its status higher than any ordinary legislation in Nigeria, but lower than the Constitution. We further informed that the simple meaning of the citations above is that the 1999 Constitution is above and superior to all other laws of the land; followed by the African Charter on Human & Peoples Rights (in dealing with the citizens’ rights in the course of execution or enforcement of State policies and actions)”. That the laws (Acts) enacted or deemed to have been enacted by the National Assembly of Nigeria as well as the laws made by the Houses of Assembly of States are all inferior to the Constitution and the African Charter on Human & Peoples Rights. In other words, in the event of conflict between the Constitution and any Act of the National Assembly or any of its provisions; the Constitution prevails; and in the event of any conflict between the African Charter on Human Rights & Peoples Rights (signed, ratified and domesticated by Nigeria in 1983) and any Act of the National Assembly; the African Charter prevails. Also in the event of any conflict between any Act of the National Assembly and a Law of a State, the Act of the National Assembly prevails. We reminded the NJC and the AGF that every Judge in Nigeria is mandatorily kitted with three bibles of fundamental legal knowledgeof: (a) rule of law and its two cardinal pillars of audi altarem partem (listen to or hear the other side) and nemo judex in causa sua (refrain from being a judge in your own case); (b) the 1999 Constitution; and (c) the Fundamental Human Rights Chapter in the Constitution and the African Charter on Human & Peoples Rights. That these three bibles of fundamental legal knowledge or three weapons of a Bencher also defy mental senility; and that the three weapons of a Bencher also serve as his or her daily chewing stick or tooth brush; to be used and applied at all times and in all adjudicative circumstances. They were reminded as well that a Judge of the Federal or State High Court is also mandatorily under the judicial oath and the oath of constitutional allegiance; as contained in the Seventh Schedule of the 1999 Constitution. On the issue of accusation levelled against Citizen Nnamdi Kanu and his IPOB of their involvement in acts of terrorism and terrorism financing, we frowned at such bogus criminal accusation against political citizens expressing their political thoughts peacefully and non violently. We further reminded the NJC and the AGF of dangers of frivolously labelling citizens as terrorists and terrorism financiers; outside the spirit and letters of the Terrorism Prevention Act of 2011 as amended;which is punishable upon judicial conviction with death penalty and life imprisonment; as well as life imprisonment for offenses ofconspiracy, aiding and abetting terrorism. We complained bitterly that what surprised and still surprises us was (is) how the DSS came about its allegation of terrorism and terrorism financing against a group and individual(s) expressing political thoughts peacefully and non-violently, even when the same Terrorism Prevention Act of 2011 as amended clearly stated thatactivities of political parties and expression of political thoughts do not amount to acts of terrorism. We informed further that Acts of Terrorism are clearly insurrectionist in nature and involve armed rebellion and use of widespread violence against a Government and its population. According to Section 1 of Terrorism Prevention Act of 2011 as amended; acts of terrorism include (i) an attack upon a person’s life which may cause serious bodily harm or death; (ii) kidnapping of a person; (iii) destruction to a Government or public facility, a transport system, an infrastructure facility, including an information system, a fixed platform located on the continental shelf, a public place or private property, likely to endanger human life or result in major economic loss; and (iv) the seizure of an aircraft, ship or other means of public or goods transport and diversion or the use of such means of transportation for any of the purposes. And to be properly accused and investigated of involvement in acts of terrorism, Section 2 of the Act clearly stated that for a group to be accused as a terrorist group and individual (s) to be accused as terrorist (s), such group (s) and individual (s) must be presidentially and judicially proscribed; provided their violent activities are clearly in line with the definition of acts of terrorism in Section 1 of the Terrorism Act of 2011 as amended; that in the instant case, nothing of such nature was done till date. We also observed that unconstitutional laws & court Orders are on rampage in Nigeria and condemned strongly the order exparte issued on 10th November 2015 by Hon Justice Adeniyi Ademola of the Federal High Court Six, Abuja Division for ninety days and above detention of Citizen Nnamdi Kanu on phantom allegation and investigation of his involvement in terrorism and terrorism financing;which we saw as not only a height of miscarriage of justice and brazen affront to the sanctity of the judiciary, but also threats to rule of law and the fundamental human rights of the detained citizen. We also saw it as a coup against the supremacy of the 1999 Constitution and grave disrespect to the Fundamental Human Rights Chapter of the 1999 Constitution and the African Charter on Human & Peoples Rights. Surprising and shocking, too, was the fact that the order exparte, which, by convention, has short lifespan and ought to have elapsed byeffusion of time after seven or fourteen days was still made by Hon Justice Ademola Adeniyi to subsist till date; with high possibility of its renewal ad infinitum and that the Judge could issue or grant such order, which has the capacity to terminate the life of the accused/detainee and have gravely undermined his fundamental human rights particularly his constitutional rights to fair hearing and personal liberty; without bordering to hear the other side or the accused/detainee. We held further that the Judge had no excuse over his failure to identify or take the judicial notice of the brazen inconsistency of Section 27 (1) of the Terrorism Prevention Act of 2011 as amended with Section 35 (4) (a) (b) of the 1999 Constitution. We asked: where lies the Judge’s sense of judgment and discretionary powers in the instant case? The grave inconsistency of Section 27 (1) of the Terrorism Prevention Act of 2011 as amended; with Section 35 (4) (a) (b) of the 1999 Constitution was highlighted and placed side by side to the effect that while Section 27 (1) of the Terrorism Prevention Actcontradictorily provided that: “the court may, pursuant to an exparte application, grant an order for the detention of a suspect under this Act for a period not exceeding 90 days subject to renewal for a similar period until the conclusion of the investigation and prosecution of the matter that led to the arrest and detention is dispensed with; Section 35 (4) (a) (b) of the 1999 Constitution under right to personal liberty; firmly directed that: “any person who is arrested or detained in accordance with sub section 1 (c) (suspicion of having committed a criminal offense carrying capital punishment) of this section shall be brought before a court within a reasonable time, and if he is not tried within a period of: (a) two months from the date of his arrest or detention in the case of a person who is in custody or is not entitled to bail; or (b) three months from the date of his arrest or detention in the case of a person who has been released on bail, he shall (without prejudice to any other further proceedings that may be brought against him) be released either unconditionally or upon such conditions as are reasonably necessary to ensure that he appears for trial at a later date”. We saw the former as a clear return of Decrees Nos. 2 and 4 of 1984. At the end, we called on the AGF: to as a matter of uttermost immediacy and; inexcusably prepare and send an executive bill to the National Assembly for repealing of the unconstitutional Section 27 (1) of the Terrorism Prevention Act of 2011 as amended in 2013; highlighted above, owing to its grave inconsistency with Section 35 (4) (a) (b) of the 1999 Constitution and the African Charter on Human & Peoples Rights. The AGF was also urged to critically study other provisions of the Terrorism Prevention Act of 2011 as amended and ensure that all of such provisions are brought in tandem or made to be consistent with the 1999 Constitution. On the part of the NJC/CJN, we called on the hallowed body/office to thoroughly investigate the roles of Hon Justice Ademola Adeniyi of the Federal High Court Six, Abuja Division in the consideration and issuance of the highly controversial and unconstitutional order; on the grounds of its grave inconsistency with the 1999 Constitution and gross failure of the Judge to consider the natural justice dictum of audi altarem partem (listen to or hear the other side) in consideration and issuance of the order. We noted that the Judge’s possible defense of ignorance of these two ground premises would be inexcusably impeachable and that the Judge ought to know the difference between ratio decidendi and orbiter dictum; and that it is not every issue that goes through the court process that comes out in the same shape and content. We demanded that Hon Justice Adeniyi Ademola should be appropriately sanctioned at the end; to serve as deterrent to others. We also renewed our call for immediate and unconditional release from unconstitutional captivity of Citizen Nnamdi Kanu and an end to the return of indiscriminate use of trumped-up criminal charges or accusations by State security agencies under the executive midwifery of the Buhari’s Presidency to arrest and detain citizens in perpetuity and grossly deprive them of their constitutional and fundamental human rights to human dignity, personal liberty, freedom of movement, association and peaceful assembly; expression and fair hearing.

Biafra: IPOB
CEASEFIRE ON PROTEST: FALSE AND MISGUIDEDFeatured
09
December 2015
We
are on their throat, they cannot shoot again, they are helpless and the world
is asking what we want. When BBC asked to be granted interview over our
protest, it was clear we have activated the world, they want to know what we
want and so grant us what we want. Nigerian government is on their knees,
the protest has brought them down, and they confessed our course is legitimate
because the world is asking them questions. They will do everything humanly
possible to lobby us into stopping this peaceful protest because that is the
key to Biafra restoration; they will even promise us heaven and earth to stop.
But
we are Biafrans, the children of Chiukwuokikeabiama, we are dogged Biafrans
that never give up, we are persevering Biafrans that stood against our
purported extinction in 1967 with bare-hands. Have you forgotten that we are the
sons of Abraham that held the angel till he received his blessing, by way of
protest and prayer Chiukwuokikeabiama must give us Biafra and shall remain
consistent? IPOB peaceful protest must continue because of the love we have for
Nnamdi Kanu, if we relent they would kill our hero and living legend. IPOB
peaceful protest must continue until our leader Nnamdi Kanu calls for an end to
it, him alone can order a ceasefire in person or through our able deputy
director.
Let
no one be deceived, we are all on it, read my "ONITSHA IPOB PEACEFUL
PROTEST, MY STORY" we shall continue as the hundreds of IPOB
coordinators and principal officers that came down to Nigeria from Abroad for
the protest must not go back. The prophet said "Consistency is the key,
Oburokwa emegide asi na onwere uzo ozo esi emeya, continue what you are doing
till you get your result" our leader Nnamdi Kanu prepared us long for this
period and now we must show our seriousness for Biafra and love for Nnamdi
Kanu. IPOB peaceful protest must be redoubled for it's now or never. This is
our last chance at Biafra and Biafra must come.

Nigeria: Radio Biafra director and Ipob leader Nnamdi Kanu released as DSS detention ruled 'unlawful'
Ludovica Iaccino
By Ludovica Iaccino
Nnamdi Kanu
arrested in lagos
Ipob leader Nnamdi Kanu was arrested in Lagos in October 2015Facebook
The
High Federal Court of Abuja has ordered the release of controversial director
of Radio Biafra, Nammadi Kanu. He was arrested in October by the the state
security service (DSS) on charges of criminal conspiracy and belonging to an
unlawful organisation.
Watch IBTimes UK exclusive interviews with Kanu's wife
This
is why we need Biafra
'My husband is a prisoner of conscience'
The
DSS refused to release Kanu after the magistrates court in Abuja had granted
him bail in October. The DSS argued the conditions for the bail were not met
and obtained permission from the High Court to detain Kanu for a further 90
days to investigate on alleged terrorism charges.
Why advertise with us
The
DSS later dropped the criminal charges against Kanu but maintained the Biafran
leader instigated terrorism. However, the High court ruled that the prolonged
detention of Kanu – leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (Ipob) – was
unlawful.
#Biafra Live from Abuja: d high court has
ruled that #NnamdiKanu be released unconditionally!!

However,
Kanu's supporters and family members expressed concern as Kanu did not appear
in court for the ruling. His wife, Uchechi Okwu-Kanu, told IBTimes UK: "He
has been released unconditionally but he was not brought to court. What have
they done with my husband? I will wait till he's been seen. "
Why advertise with us
The
ruling came as thousands of Ipob members are holding a two-day demonstration in
Lagos, Nigeria's commercial hub. Protesters have been asking for the immediate
and unconditional release of Kanu as well as the independence of Biafran
territories that used to be part of a separate state before being annexed to
Nigeria during the British colonisation.
BRITISH
GOVERNMENT SET TO PUT MORE PRESSURE ON Nigerian GOVERNMENT OVER Nnamdi Kanu's
ARREST.
The member of parliament representing Camberbell and Peckham in the British house of Commons, Mr Philip Hammond, has petitioned the house of common for the illegal detention of his constituent member is exposed in Nigeria. It was reported that Nnamdi Kanu was detained after he flew in from the UK to Nigeria, and was detained at the Tullip Hotel of the Murtala Muhammed Int’l Airport Hotel, Lagos on wednesday,13th October 2015. He had in his petition requested that the Nigerian government immediately release Nnamdi Kanu or charge him to court for offences committed. “Nnamdi is known to lead a secessionist group for the indigenous people of Biafra for a sovereign state. Now, it is pertinent he be released”, he said.
Buhari
may be calling us miscreants jobless people because our useless God forsaken
elders, ohaneze and shameless clergy and priests are telling him not to mind us
that we cant do anything, time will tell and when the time comes you will wish
to go back to your mothers womb because there will be no hiding place for you
no matter the storm we will win, chukwuokikeabiama help your children pursuing
the course of restoring your kingdom to settle their dispute so the enemies
wont know our strength and weakness I remain loyal to chukwuokikeabiama, our
director Nnamdi Kanu who will be going to court today and the entire IPOB
family members who have this struggle at heart ise ise ise.
How Kanu Almost Escaped Arrest - DSSShare on Facebook
The Department
of State Services for the first time since the incarceration of the leader of a
group, Indigenous People of Biafra and director of Radio Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu,
has given minute details on the arrest.Share on Twitter
The DSS has
given detail how leader of IPOB, Kanu was arrested
The DSS
explained that if not for the expertise of its men, Kanu could have slipped
away from the watchful eyes of the service that had been on his trail.
It disclosed
that Kanu allegedly lodged into a Lagos hotel using fictional name in order to
evade arrest.
The Nigerian
secret police stated further how arms and ammunitions were recovered from the
home of one of Kanu’s close associates – Benjamin Madubugwu – at
Ubulusiuzor town, in Ihiala local government area Anambra state.

Writes Open Letter To Buhari
This fresh
information is contained in court documents filed along a fresh six-count
charge filed against Kanu, Madubugwu and David Nwawuisi, The Nation reports.
According to
the DSS operative that led the team that arrested Kanu, Temisan John, noted
that accused person was arrested on October 14, at the Golden Tulip Essential
Lagos Airport Hotel in Lagos.
He disclosed
that Kanu was nabbed in a company of a lady.
“On arrival
at the hotel, the staff denied having Kanu in the hotel or having any knowledge
of him even when shown his photograph. The hotel’s guest manifests for about
five days were also printed and the name was not found on any.
“However,
relying on accurate intelligence, the team decided to conduct a physical search
on all the hotel rooms, leading to the arrest of Kanu in Room 303, where he was
caught hibernating with a young girl named Maryam Ibezimakor, with all his
broadcasting and communication gadgets set for use.
“It was then
discovered that Kanu checked in under the name Nwanekaenyi Ezebuiro. He was
subsequently arrested and taken to the command headquarters,” John
narrated.
Another team of
the DSS that searched the home of Madubugwu disclosed that two pump
action guns with loaded ammunition were recovered at the home located at
Ubulusiuzor, Ihiala local government, of Anambra state.
The lead,
Mohammed Ahmed said: “one Emerald Pump Action gun, serial number:
TS870-113-0046″ and “one Delta Magnum Pump Action gun s/no: 501.”
The three
persons of interest were supposed to be arraigned on December 23 but the court
proceeding was stalled when Kanu alleged that he does not have confident with
the presiding judge, Justice Amhed Mohammed to grant him fair trial which
prompted the judge to withdraw from the case.
However, the
case file has been sent to the chief judge for reassignment to another judge.
Thiswas made
known by Prophet Anthony Nwoko of the Church of God when he addressed a crowded
press conference at the end of a prayer summit organised by 24 pastors in
Enugu.
